Has anyone encountered RCI hiding resorts? I recall finding exchanges available for Paris last year when I searched around August. When I search now nothing shows up but if I pull up the listing a different way that takes longer, I find the resorts. Unfortunately it won't let me save them as favorites.

Edit: Found out the maximum number of favorites that can be saved is 10.

I don't know if I would say they're "hiding" resorts deliberately... of course that's possible, but I think it's more likely because their website developers/testers suck.

I've had instances where some resorts wont show up when I search "all exchange resorts" compared to searching other ways. And this only happens when searching certain areas. Probably just coding issues on the site.

I don't know about "hiding" but I believe, and have for years, that RCI keeps some units to rent out or put on Extra Vacations rather than put them in the exchange pool. Several times I have searched for an exchange with plenty of points/TPUs and not found what I was looking for only to see it listed on Extra Vacations or Wyndham Vacation Rentals or even other timeshare rental sites for the dates I want.
