We have had all kinds of talk about AKV, CRV and possible add-ons of DVC to other existing properties at both WDW and DL. SO...
When AKL was first being built, the scuttlebutt from most CM's at WDW was that it was to be a new DVC resort with it's own savanna. I remember hopeing against hope that it was indeed true. When AKL was being finished and it was announced that it was a Disney resort (no further mention of DVC), I was disappointed, but I did stay there once anyway. My stay made me all the more wistful for a DVC there. Now that it is coming to pass, and the new AKV will be significantly larger than the original AKL, I wonder if the scuttlebutt we heard way back when might actually have been true? Do you think the AKL was originally going to be DVC, but was turned into a stand alone, only to be returned to a DVC idea?
