I don't know that you'll see a 3 bedroom, but a 2 bedroom will be close to 60.
Damn that's a lot
We are going any where from 8-12 persons, so I though a 12pax would come in handy. But 60 tpu for a 2BR damn.
What about a 1Br?
I might setup a OGS for a Hilton instead, that's more feasible I think.

Based on this summer, probably around 50-52.

I think I need to find another DVC resort to exchange into.
All of the DVC resorts in the summer will be about the same TPUs. Wyndham Bonnet Creek will likely require a few less.

DVC is usually about 7 months ahead of check in, but most units (especially larger ones) will go to ongoing searches. If you don't have one started yet you should, because the earlier the search is started the higher priority it gets (I set one up earlier this month for a July 2016 search).

I agree with the ongoing search suggestion. I think just "getting lucky" is pretty unrealistic, but OGS's seem to work pretty well if you have the TPU to get it.

I have seen 3BR summer Hiltons (HGVC). IF you set up an ongoing search soon, I think you will get a match for one of those weeks. However, a HGVC 3BR still only sleeps 8 or so, so you will need 2 units.

We gave up on AKV. We decided on renting a house about 5 minutes from Disney. 5 bed 4 bath for 1800.00 for the week of 7/4-7/11/15.
It was just a better large group option for us.
