I called Starwood today to make a reservation for the week of May 2, 2008 at WKORV-N - and was told that that week is unavailable for use because it's "Golden Week" in Japan and there is no inventory available to owners. I explained that I was given a Week 1-50 share when I bought and was only told that I couldn't use Christmas and New Year's weeks.
I ended up making a reservation for April 25 instead - which isn't a problem in this case. But I thought that this couldn't be right.
The operator said she was going to check with the resort directly - but that at this time all of the rooms were booked for "resort use" and none available to Starwood owners. She promised to call me back and let me know what's up. Anyone else have this problem this morning? Are there any other dates like this that may be barred from owner use?
As noted above - it's not a big deal to me since I can travel the week prior. But I think it's baloney if it's true . . .
I hope it's a mistake.
