Any thoughts on if VGC could open before Disneyland opens? I would still like to take a trip there, even with DL closed. I have to believe there are a fair amount of people who would also be willing to stay there with the parks closed. They still have excellent pools, and could do some socially distanced outdoor movie night, or other activities at the resort. Why doesn't Disney consider this? As a VGC owner I find it unfair that the hotel remains closed, when I own there and would like to stay there before even more points expire.
I don't expect it to open. You don't own the hotel portion, just the villas, which is a separate building and could open by itself (sure, it would take a mini kiosk), but I don't see it opening by itself. If the hotel portion did not open, those staying on site could not cut through the hotel to access DTD, but would exit out the side entrance (side of the hotel, near the taxi area), have to walk across the street, past Paradise Pier, and then walk that way to DTD. Plus, there would be limited (if any) amenities. No pool since it is unlikely the VGC owners would want to pay the full cost of it. I could see no less than three staff members needed, probably four, to open VGC. One to keep the sidewalk area gate closed and wait for the signal from the person at the side entrance that the kiosk could take one more person, one at the inside portion of the side entrance and one at the kiosk.
