Canada Pavilion DVC Welcome Home Center at Epcot FAQs

What is the Canada Pavilion DVC Welcome Home Center?

Disney Vacation Club says Château de Voyage invites you to come in to explore Membership and learn about Disney Vacation Club. While there are many Disney Vacation Club kiosks around Disney World in the parks and resorts, there isn't anything quite like this in the parks yet.

It has an Island Tower at Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows model room that you can visit. This is one of the home resort properties Disney is actively selling right now along with Disney's Riviera Resort, The Villas at Disneyland Hotel, Aulani and The Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort.

Polynesian DVC is also available to purchase on the resale market, probably for a much better price.

What's the difference between a Welcome Home Center and a DVC lounge?

Welcome Home Centers are different from DVC lounges because the intent is probably more to educate people about Disney Vacation Club and answer questions rather than to provide a space for current Members to relax.

Disney Vacation Club has an exciting line up of lounge options for eligible Members. We have an extensive DVC lounge guide with locations, times and how to visit the following locations:

• Disney Vacation Club ImaginAtrium – A Member Lounge (Epcot DVC lounge in Imagination Pavilion)
• Top of the World Lounge (On top of Bay Lake Tower next to Magic Kingdom)
• Star View Station – a Member Lounge (In Tomorrowland at Disneyland)
• McKim’s Mile House – A Member Lounge (In Frontierland at Magic Kingdom)

The other Gateway to Discovery – A Disney Vacation Club Welcome Home Center at Disney Springs has a first floor space for potential Members to learn about DVC. The second floor has a space for Members to enjoy complimentary drinks and snacks. There are also Riviera model rooms to tour.

Those who purchase resale alone are not able to visit the lounges. However, if you're already a Member with access to all of DVC's perks, you can add on resale points and save.

Who can visit the Epcot DVC Welcome Home Center?

We're going to guess anyone who wants to learn about Disney Vacation Club can visit the Welcome Home Center in the Canada Pavilion at Epcot. There will surely be Disney Vacation Club Guides there and materials to explore how DVC works. Current Members interested in touring the model Island Tower room or thinking about adding on will benefit from visiting too.
