I have 3 choices I think and I am going with Wyndham for the value and locations and prominence:
1) Buy at Wyndham where I never want to go, with a higher points value and lower maintenance fee than Access. My understanding is that I will getting ARP only this resort, which I never want to go to (again, it has the highest points for the maintenance fee and upfront cost).
2) Buy Wyndham Access, where I will get less points than above option, and higher maintenance fee, but will get ARP at all the Wyndhams, although from what I read the inventory is limited for Access anyway.
3) the most expensive option is to buy in the place we would like to go the most, Bonnet Creek, which has higher maintenance fee and less points and more upfront cost that the other 2 options.
The resorts I would like to visit the most are Bonnet Creek, Star Island, Majestic Sun and Emerald Grand. Soooooo, I am thinking what I need to know the most is, for options 1 (most points for the cost), I will only use the points to go other than my home resort so will I be able to get my 4 resort preferences with only the standard window as I will not have ARP to those preferred resorts. I also want to go to Hawaii every 4 years and I read they are really hard to get (except Princesomething which someone said was not as good).
Also, I can make reservations 10 to 13 months in advance, I need 2 Br places mostly, I am looking to travel Thanksgiving, Mardi Gras Week, and summer (Not value times).
Thank you so much for your help! UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUG! Took me 3 days of research to come up with these options and we attended a Wyndham presentation, bought and cancelled!
