A new resort development announced today will expand Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, distinguished as the flagship hotel at the Walt Disney World Resort, and continue the growth of Disney Vacation Club, Disney’s innovative vacation-ownership program.
Disney Vacation Club plans to build an estimated 147 villas as part of a previously announced expansion of Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort, one of the premier resort hotels at the Walt Disney World Resort.
Estimated to open in late 2013, this new resort experience is slated to be the 12th Disney Vacation Club property and will be located near the spa and wedding pavilion at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort. In addition to villa accommodations, plans for the expansion include a children’s water-play area and other amenities.
“We continually look for ways to expand Disney Vacation Club by creating resort experiences that our members will love,” said Claire Bilby, senior vice president and general manager of Disney Vacation Club. “With the continued popularity of Bay Lake Tower at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, we are thrilled to offer our members and guests a new resort option along the monorail system with easy access to the Magic Kingdom Park, as well as a variety of shopping, dining and recreation experiences.”
Disney Vacation Club is owned by Disney Vacation Development Inc., part of the magic of The Walt Disney Company. To learn more, visit www.disneyvacationclub.com.

I’ve heard the rumors of DVC rooms being added to the GF. I was there last month and saw the confirming construction from the monorail. I am excited, I <3 being a DVC member! As for the added/expanded t.v. listings, I for one am glad about that. I like relaxing in bed with some t.v. at the end of the day, but I do get tired of all the Disney channels. Can I hope for Hallmark so I can watch my Golden Girls reruns?
goodness. on a positive note, thanks for posting! excited about all the expansions!
If you watch Fox News, YOU are the one drinking the kool-aid. I’m a journalist so I actually know what’s going on and it certainly isn’t what fox news wants you to believe. If you truly believe the tripe that they try to pass off as news, you’re insane. You do realize that Rupert Murdoch is the brain behind Fox news, right? The most hated man in the news industry.
The only things I took from this article are the addition of FOX News–finally and the TIW card being offered with out an AP! Looks like all those surveys I took paid off!
Not really interested in GF DVC.
Are you kidding Emmaleigh? Oh yeah that’s right you must be drinking the kool-aid.
FINALLY! DVC confirms the rumors that I started hearing 6-9 months ago! When I asked a senoir CM @ the GF, they just smiled and shrugged. I love being in DVC and can’t wait to stay at the GF!!! HOORRAAYYY!!!
I love how they use Fox News as a selling point. Really? I’d rather keep the idiots that watch that away from Disney World.
