Well, I got a mail in the letter about Highlands Inn points allocation change. It's generally good for owners, but bad news for others trying to get in.
As far as I can understand, basically the points allocation/requirement for the Highlands Inn units increased - one bedroom to the equivalent of regular two bedroom point requirement; two bedroom to the equivalent of regular three bedroom point requirements........
Owners get the equivalent of a free week of studio points per year!
Seems like Hyatt really wants to keep this property difficult for others to get in - maybe because of the abundance of float points that it sells as part of the Residence Club??
Another note - I was given AMAZING offers while at Breck last week, almost tempted to buy a Platinum 3-Bedroom week from the developer!! With this change, it seems very unlikely that I will be buying.....
A Special Announcement for Highlands Inn Members
I know you appreciate the value of Highlands Inn, a Hyatt Vacation Club from the interiors, to the impeccable service and spectacular views. As time passes, the demand versus the supply for this prestigious property continues to increase.
The Hyatt Vacation Club Rules and Regulations provide for periodic demand analysis of all destinations. After careful consideration, the determination was made to modify the point values of one and two bedroom units according to the high demand for the property. Two new unit type designations have been established. One-bedroom units will now be categorized, as One Bedroom Premiere and Two Bedroom units will now be referred to as Two Bedroom Deluxe. This creates more travel options for you at no additional cost.
2009 Point Value
1 Bedroom - Gold 1,240; Platinum 1,320; Diamond 1,450
2 Bedroom - Gold 1,880; Platinum 2,000; Diamond 2,200
2010 Point Value
1 Bedroom Premiere - Gold 1,880; Platinum 2,000; Diamond 2,200
2 Bedroom Deluxe - Gold 2,520; Platinum 2,680; Diamond 2,950
The new point values are exclusive to the Highlands Inn, a Hyatt Vacation Club and will take effect week 1 of 2010 (January 2, 2010).
