Hello,
I've been reading these forums for weeks now trying to absorb as much info as I can and while I think I understand what the 'smart financial' choice is I just want to be sure before I pull the trigger.
We currently own two DVC resorts and thought using the RCI option for cash reservations would make up for other vacations but the availability hasn't been great for what we're looking for.
Vistana seems to offer the resorts in the locations we want to go. Based on research I know to get a mandatory resort and have been looking at SVV vs Kierland. I see Kierland low season 1BR annual 25,800 SO practically being given away on Redweek and wonder, if these staroptions can be used anywhere and we travel in the shoulder season anyway, and would only need 3-5 nights at a resort in a 1BR or studio, is this not a good buy since we don't need a lot of points anyway?
Then I see high season 1 BR EOY being given away but the ad doesn't list the SO. Is that something that was accidentally left off, or are there no SO with that listing? Why would the listings for all of Kierland properties not include SO amounts if that is where the value is and info buyers want to know?
Thanks so much!
