HGV Lagoon Tower
HGV Carlsbad Seapointe
Gaslamp Plaza Suites
SVV Bella
We booked an II Getaway to get away from June gloom and mis-timed it by a week.
Weather is beautiful in Carlsbad now and it is supposed to be 110 in Scottsdale. We really like this resort though and got offered $200 or 35,000 Bonvoy to do the tour. I said what the heck and took the $200.
They pushed the Flex and offered me $9300 to trade in my SVV odd year 81k ( which I purchased for $100). My final price was $21,000 for every year 81k Westin Flex and 270,000 Bonvoy points.
If I wanted another 81k in even years I suppose I could just spend another $100 and get an even year. The three sales people we engaged with were all very polite and no high pressure. 90 minutes. Wife already booked a massage with her loot.
I still might pick up a resale 2br here one of these years but not now.
