With apologies for a wildly general question would appreciate any help narrowing this down:
We have two weeks at Interval that we need to use next year. We live in CA and have been to Hawaii a lot through Interval, don't need to go to Mexico and are thinking of Europe but plowing through the II resort list seems like such a slow way to do this. We own the Four Seasons so try to trade into comparably nice resorts when possible (Marriott, Westin sort but don't need those names). Have traveled all over for years, but not using our timeshare property. Many of the ones I have looked at in Paris or London for example are marked "very limited trading availability". No surprise there .
Any suggestions for areas to focus on? Am open to anywhere in Europe. We would need to fly to some large city and ideally end up some place not more than 1-2 hours away that has villages and markets to visit, some good food, museums or a way to get into a larger city by train (i.e. Paris, London etc.) Not really interested in a beach vacation unless it is close to culture and some interesting things to do. Don't know much about Portugal and Spain (the only western Europe countries I have not visited) it seems there are a lot of timeshare resorts there and I hear nice things about both countries if you know where to go or at least where to research.
Any general direction would be helpful very helpful.
