One recent trend is the water side cabins, seen at CCV and Poly. This rendering shows 2 potential types, the houseboat one and the A frame.
Many have suggested that the cabins are ideal for disney as they add points to inventory, but the building don't stay fully utilized.
With two distinct types in this rendering(if it's accurate). What are folks thoughts on the capacities of these two types of out buildings? The A frames looks smaller. The 2 smallest ones on their own, I figured as service buildings.
What if the plan involves smaller cabins. Perhaps a way to get folks to utilize smaller accommodations for higher points cost?
I can see the house boats being the new big mega on water cabin. The bigger A frames could be smaller capacity that the ccv cabins, and a lower point value respectively. Those two small A frames could be akin to the tower suites in Riviera. Built for 2 people only, for the quaint couples retreat with very limited availability and exclusivity. I'm thinking honeymoon suite type of deal.
I can't help but think disney see's the appeal of the water side cabins, and is trying to find a way to attract as many users as possible. Certainly there is a business plan for selling the big ones and letting them sit empty as you've already made your money.....however if they sit empty, then that is less people in the parks and in the restaurants.
