In full disclosure, we will be 5 staying in 2 studios. 1 studio, 1 hotel room and 1 bedrooms won't work for our group since D20's bf is now travelling with us. If D's bf was not traveling with us, I'd not hesitate to drop the 2nd studio. As a family of 4, we have previously always stayed value or mod - 1 room. I would not travel with another couple and share a hotel room or a studio. Probably not a 1 bedroom either. I think that's different though, since I don't already share a home with them
I see studios as slightly better than a regular hotel room. You get the balcony and the kitchenette. Perhaps some don't like the sofa bed, but I like that it can be folded up and gives more space to move around and a usable "living room" during the day.
For us, DVC was a way to stay "deluxe" (I know....not really) for less money, but never for the kitchen, laundry, etc. Cooking and doing laundry are in no way an "upgrade" as far as I"m concerned!!! A 2 bedroom would be nice in terms of having a gathering space, but isn't worth the points IMO.
We've never looked into other timeshares.
