So cant wait I really would love to stay as DVC
In 2009/2010 they were actively selling AKV, BLT, VGC, and SSR (Although SSR was an outlier due to THV)Dvc doesn't announce multiple new resorts at the same time, let alone build them simultaneously.
1) they do not want to canabilize there often sales with 2 competing resorts
2) they don't want to give perspective buyers a reason to hesitate..i.e. I'll wait on purchasing Riviera as I prefer river country
Usually the announcement of a new DVC resort is around 60%+ sales of the current one. They have the statistics down so well that they can plan it almost perfectly that a new resort starts selling when they existing one is around 85% sold.
The only resort I can remember was different was Hawaii.

Yes thats true, but look at these openning dates:In 2009/2010 they were actively selling AKV, BLT, VGC, and SSR (Although SSR was an outlier due to THV)
Yes thats true, but look at these openning dates:
BRV - Nov 2000
BCV - Jul 2002
SSR - March 2004
AKV - Jul 2007
BLT - Aug 2009
VGC - Sep 2009
Aul - Aug 2011
VGF - Oct 2013
PVB - Apr 2015
CCV - Jul 2017
RIV - Sept/Oct 2019?
With the exception of VGC which is a DL resort and is catering to a different group there is always a 2 year gap between resorts. The question I was answering was if they would announce 2 NEW resorts at the same time. I'm not arguing if they are selling more than one "primary/active" resort. That has happened a few times due to the sheer size of SSR, AKV, and AUL.
Yes, we are in essence saying the same thingAgain, I don't think they would open two resorts at the same time, but I could see them overlapping sales. You could get Riviera in 2019 then another resort in 2020 and a third one in 2021 if they are projecting continued strong economy. If the ecomony tanks, they just shelve a project a la PC: Classic Years.

That is impressive!!! Has the potential to be very glamorous. (for Disney)

And for DVC owners on points IMO. Can't wait to try it.
DVC resorts usually hold a certain amount of rooms for cash reservations so I would guess anyone could stay.Oh, are only DVC allowed to stay there? I wasn't sure.
There’s a small percentage that Disney always owns. Members booking cruises and other exchanges that require a DVC room to rented also opens up rooms for nonmembers.Oh, are only DVC allowed to stay there? I wasn't sure.

No they will rent some rooms. My guess is cash stays will be quite expensive though.
I imagine point rentals will be very popular here, probably easily enough after it's been on sale for a bit. Even though I'm DVC we're renting Copper Creek (don't have enough points for a 2-bedroom). Clearly someone had enough points and wanted to rent them out after a short time so that would be a good option if someone wanted to try it out.
