The Villas at Disneyland Hotel

The Resort & Setting

The Villas at Disneyland Hotel sits at 1150 Magic Way, Anaheim, directly on the grounds of the Disneyland Resort and connected to the Disneyland Hotel itself. It's a Disney Vacation Club property, which means units are sold and used on a points-based system rather than a fixed week, and owners book their stays through DVC's reservation system. Google reviewers rate the property 4.6 out of 5 from 159 reviews, reflecting a consistently well-regarded stay. As with any DVC resort, the appeal here is less about a private beach or marina and more about ease of access — you're steps from the parks rather than a shuttle ride away.

The Area and Things to Do

Anaheim is the heart of Orange County's entertainment district, built almost entirely around the Disneyland Resort, which includes Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park right next door. The surrounding area is dense with themed dining, shopping at Downtown Disney, and convention facilities at the Anaheim Convention Center, making this a practical base whether you're visiting for the parks, a conference, or both. Because the resort is walkable to the gates, owners and renters alike tend to value the location above everything else — there's no need to drive or rely on shuttles to reach the parks.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own points at The Villas at Disneyland Hotel and are ready to move on, a private resale through BidMyTimeshare.com works like any owner-to-owner listing: you set your own asking price, list the contract details, and interested buyers contact you directly through the platform. There's no commission on the sale — just a one-time listing fee to get your contract in front of buyers.

A few things specific to Disney Vacation Club are worth knowing before you list or buy. According to Disney Vacation Club, resale contracts signed on or after 1 January 2026 carry a $500 Contract Administration Fee, which is separate from any fee your resale broker or private sale might involve. Disney also holds a right of first refusal on every resale contract, meaning the signed contract must reach Disney at least 30 days before closing so Disney can decide whether to buy it back itself — resale trackers have reported Disney exercising this right on anywhere from 3.7% to 15% of contracts in 2026, depending on the source. Brokers typically estimate a transfer takes around 45 days to complete once a contract is submitted.

Buyers should also know that a resale purchase at this resort doesn't come with full use flexibility. Resale points at The Villas at Disneyland Hotel (the same restriction applies at Disney's Riviera Resort and Cabins at Fort Wilderness) can only be used to book at their home resort — they can't be redirected to other DVC properties the way direct-purchased points can. Resale buyers also don't receive Membership Extras, which Disney reserves for owners who buy directly from Disney Vacation Club.

Practical Notes

Because this is a points-based DVC property rather than a fixed-week resort, sellers should be ready to state their point allocation, use year, and any banked or borrowed points clearly in their listing — this is the detail serious buyers look for first. Renters, meanwhile, are typically drawn to this resort for its walk-to-the-parks location, so listings that are upfront about proximity and park access tend to get the right kind of attention. Given the resale restriction on home-resort-only booking, it's worth being transparent about this in any listing so buyers know exactly what they're purchasing.
