this looks like a clear majority
Not surprised at all the positive responses here on TUG. It is clear that those of us i.e. Tuggers, who take the time to understand and best use our timeshares are the happy ones. I still meet people when I speak to them about vacations, who HATE having them and are sorry they purchased, but almost every one of them has not made the effort to learn how to use the system they are in. Of course I always try to refer them to visit TUG and these boards to learn, post questions and get great information. But you know what they say, you can lead a horse to water...
I am a 15 year TS owner and also very happy with our Marriott purchased weeks, trust points and resale weeks we own. We are leaving this Saturday for a week with our kids, their spouses and our grandchildren at the Aruba Surf club and this is exactly why we got into TS in the first place, to spend great times with our family on vacation. The prospect of even planning trips like this, if we didn't own TS would be so daunting (and expensive) that I doubt we would ever do it. Later this summer we will spend a week at HH, Grande Ocean with friends (who by the way, own other TS systems and are NOT happy with them).
We all have worked hard to get the time off and have the resources to travel and enjoy some great leisure times. Being part of TUG has only enhanced our enjoyment of our TS ownership. Thanks again to all for such great information and advice!
