Is this amazing? Got trade to Westin Ka'anapali Ocean Resorts North

[tarahsu]

I put in a request for all HI with Marriott or Starwood resorts and got a confirmation for August 10-17, 2018 then got another week for August 17-24, 2018.

I will probably re-trade the 10-17th week for 2019 but thought it was amazing that I got the Westin at all.

Is August not popular?

Nice trade! Most West Coast kids go back to school in August these days, so August is not a popular as it used to be.

 

[tarahsu]

Great for me as no kids

Good trade! Can you confirm if this was into a studio or a 1 bedroom?

 

[MabelP]

Wow...great trade. Have fun!

Great resort. We enjoyed our week there. We really like to go during Jan-Mar for whale watching but it's awesome no matter the season.

Nice!
Did you use a Starwood unit to trade?
1 or 2 bedroom?

Stayed there twice and loved it! Beautiful resort!

Tarahsu, please come back and share the details of the unit you traded, and the size of unit you traded into! Sounds like I'm not the only one to be interested in having a data point. For reference, I'm waiting on a 1br trade during those dates using my large side 1br SDO unit.

both trades are 1 bedroom

I now see this in the posters profile, so I will assume this was a Starwood trade

Resorts Owned:
SDO | 1BR (ODD)
SDO | 2BD LO (EVEN

I traded SDO Odd 1 bedroom and SDO Even 1 bedroom LO side
So now I have 2 weeks August 10-17 and 17-24 2018 because I put the wrong one into trade for 2018 the first time.
I will retrade August 10-17 to another destination in 2019

It wasn't a direct Starwood trade as I bought these resale for $1 on ebay. I traded via Interval.

Hi Chrispee
