Just received a letter in the mail for an upcoming event for owners at the San Diego Hilton Del Mar for August 16. It says join us as we explore how you can elevate your ownership with enhanced Owner benefits.

2-hour presentation required and choice of $150 Amex gift card or 30,000 Bonvoy points.

I am an enrolled owner but do not own any points separately. It says limited to 20 owners.

No idea if this is for something new.

“elevate your ownership” = buy points!

We did something similar in Newport Beach (not Newport Coast) a few years back. It seemed like they were considering it as a new format for presentations as almost all the time was in a large group and at the end we broke off to talk to a sales rep. I believe we ended up buying the Encore package there since it essentially made our enrollment free for a pre-2010 unit.

Aloha. SF Bay Area letter received two weeks ago. It is in Burlingame on August 4. It was sent under name of MVC Newport Coast Villas (which we are going to mid-September, every September).

Interesting that Marriott (VC) would hold a presentation at a non-Marriott hotel (especially since Bonvoy benefits are often part of the pitch with ownership).

Fairfield did this in some locations years ago, sometimes with a video.
