All,
Just wanted to post about our experience while down here. We exchanged into a 2 BR unit at the Grand Bliss.
Everything is great and the resort is wonderful. We did attend the "presentation" for our gifts and free breakfast.
My wife and I know what to expect so made it clear on how much of our time they would get in what was to be a "1hour" presentation. We managed to keep it at 1:45mins but only because we were navigating the layers through our NOs
We own in Virginia Beach at Oceanaire.
It always amazes me how the $ are highly subjective and mysterious.
I wanted to share what we had presented for anyone who maybe interested in buying here.(writing this from the beach club cabana)
We were offered a very decent "value" for our current time share $57k for what we paid $23k(they don't know that)
The prices we were given for a 2br Grand Mayan were $86k and GrandBliss $146k this included all kinds of extra weeks 6 more in total in various forms
We kept turning down their must be now offers. When we finally made our way out of the Vida sales folks and to what is supposedly the direct employees of the resortwner the offer went as follows.
They take my TS and for $8600 and then down to $6600 for the GB 2bR. They would also wave the 10yr renewal fee and agreed to finance the $6600 for 1year.
We even negotiated 2 days to "think about it" on the condition we go back to him.
Happpy to provide more details. Ultimately we decided not to move forward (for various reasons) but wanted to share how much lower$ some strong negotiating will get you!
