I know there has been debate on here about whether the 'free' dining plan is actually free and whether it is worth it. This can depend heavily on circumstances - party no, meals planned etc. But I just posted this on someone else's post and thought people might find it interesting....
Currently, the WDTC offer is no dining plan (unless you pay) but free nights depending on stay etc.
We are staying at OKW in a 2 bed which is showing no availability now for our August dates. But, I was able to get a price for SSR which is the same price band. For 2 bed for our dates, it is now just over £700 cheaper with the 'room discount'. However, the way I look at it is, I am sure the 6 of us will spend over £120 pp on food over the 18 nights we are there. So, for us, I think the DDP has worked. When I think what we'd have to pay OOP for the meals we are doing, I shudder. Having said that, I am sure we wouldn't be doing as many as we are if we did not have the DDP, but I'd think we'd be doing at least 10 or so over the 18 nights with it being our first visit! And of course there are the tips to consider, but we'd have these whether paying OOP or not!
