Hi,
While we can exchange in with RCI we are also considering to buy in at MP as a resale. Preference is for an older contract pre 2005 for a 2 bedroom + 1 week due to lower MF’s, transfer fees etc which I read about here on TUG
Wondering if the value of buying in for added benefits of ownership justifies the extra cost of MF’s vs simple RCI exchange and added resort visit fees?
Hoping existing owners can help outline ownership benefits of a floating week vs exchanging in.
Examples I can think of but am not sure of:
1. Free or reduced transport between airport and resort.
2. Savings by % at the resorts on store, spa or restaurants
3. Exclusive check in area or owners lounges at the resorts.
4. Some exclusive member pool area or beach area privileges
5. Special access to members events/dinners/shows/club area.
6. Butler services for members or some comparable “you are special as an owner” status benefits.
Thanks in advance for any insights you can share on the added values of membership in Vidanta for a resale purchaser.
Thanks
