First of all, I am so glad I found this site! We recently got suckered into a 3400 points TS in Las Vegas with 10k bonus points EOY for 16,000. We were in the 7 day window (WA state luckily) so we were able to rescind the contract. We are still interested, but not in Las Vegas and at a much...

Just saw this on the HGVC website. Is it customary for HGVC to launch new resorts without online booking and just for home week owners? I am excited to see HGVC coming to the Caribbean.

Hello everyone - I have been a member for a while now, and have learned so much from all of you here since my first encounter with TS back in the early 2000's. The parter and I recently visited HGVC on the strip, and I thought I would share the experience for your info. I am the owner, the...

I have been reading through a lot of these forums. I was really close to hiring one of those exit companies. I am not a numbers person, so all of this $1 per point stuff confuses me. Anyway, I'm looking for advice on a fair price for my TS. I own a 1 br at the Tuscany Village. I have an annual...

Hello Everyone, We were looking at going to the Caribbean / Antilles in the March time period and found several All Inclusive resorts available along with mandatory daily fees averaging from $180-$225 PPPN. Just from looking at the fees at a per person/per night cost, it seems like using HGVC...

Hi there - new person here. I walked away from 2200 points in Orlando for $9000 at a presentation, knowing it wasn't on par with what I see here or on resale sites..I'm now scouting the web for deals. Is it possible to buy a small/cheap package (3500 points for equivalent or less in $$), and...

Finished up my second HGVC presentation this morning. I walked away from $9000 for 2400 points (4000 point bonus) since it didn't align with what I had seen on resale sites. I'm still convinced it's a great product and I am taken by the flexibility in applying points to locations. I'm posting...

Hello all. This is my first post so go easy on me! There are some threads on this from a couple years ago but looking for more recent info We are considering eventual purchase into HGVC, and I'd like to personally THANK this forum for preventing me/us from buying from HGV itself. AMAZING...

This is my first post and my first attempt at staying anywhere other than the normal HGVC offerings. I'm looking for help in exchanging, trading, whatever the right term is, my current points to be able to stay at a Disney property March 30th - April 6th 2019. I do have some flexibility with...

Hi everyone, We’re a family of three in mid 30’s with a 2yo kid who attended a HGVC presentation while we were in Hawaii last week. We were staying in the Hilton Hawaiian Village and was interested in the TS concept so we agreed to attend the presentation when offered 30,000HH points. I did a...

I am not really sure what people include in reporting "sales price" for ROFR purposes or for doing $ per point comparisons. I have an ROFR offer in for somewhere between $809 or $3,653.41 depending on how one considers it. It is for a 1BR+ platinum (6,200 EOY odd year points) at Anderson Ocean...

New owner here (resale of course :) ...DH and I are exploring the HGVC website and trying to determine when to take our first trip. We seem to recall from the sales presentation (where we did NOT buy) that there is a way to book a last minute vacation for very little without using points. Is...

Hello all, Sorry if this has been posted before but I had small changes to questions already asked. I recently was just offered the HGVC Land and Sea $499 offer to come visit the properties. The four locations we were offered were Vegas, Orlando, Mrytle Beach, and (I forgot the other...

I am new to timesharing (newbie HGVC owner). I live on the East Coast and have been looking to snag a weekend in NYC at HGVC W 57th or possibly the Residences bHC. Since I have been watching things, it seems hard to do through HGVC if you don't own at those properties AND can't be done more than...

Hi new TUG family, Thank you all for your expertise and information that you’ve already shared through the rest of the post here in the forums. I’ve learned a lot over the last few weeks by reading the different info here. I’ve been on ~10 timeshare pitches, and have seen several different...

Alright, HGVC pros check my understanding of HGVC. I call this a “real life” example, because it’s a plan that would actually occur to me and IF I were an owner, I would try to execute. Note that I went to my first timeshare presentation in July of this year (HGVC) and just got back from 2nd...

I attended the HGVC "Owner Orientation" in Dallas this morning, with over 300 other owners. I was concerned it might be a sales pitch, but it was not. In fact, there were NO salespeople in attendance only Owner Services folks. It was exactly as advertised, an attempt to help HGVC Owners...

I recently bought resale and looking for tips from the group on when is the best time to book. I bought an EOY (odd) ts in Orlando and want to visit Hawaii end of June.

I regretfully own a HGVC timeshare at the HGVC Anderson Ocean Club in Myrtle Beach. I have [redacted] bonus points I need to book by September [redacted.] I don't plan on using these myself. 1) I want to get rid of this (especially before the next fee year in 2020) 2) It would be great to...

Hello and thanks in advance for the opinions and sharing your knowledge! I've lurked around the forums for a while, but would like to formally ask for some help getting started. General info:I prefer to stay in the HGVC family because I trust and often choose the Hilton brand for business and...

Just want to say thanks. Have been lurking and researching here for a while after attending a sales presentation at Ocean Oak (HGVC) in Hilton Head. Finally found what i was looking for -- 7k annual points (Platinum 2 bdrm) at Bay Club in Hawaii, won the E-bay auction a few weeks ago for $885...

Just matched my first RCI OGS: 26 Jan 19 @ HGVC Kohala Suites, 2br (BI) I can still cancel today....I'm thinking of cancelling this exchange and holding out for King's land.... Lack of gym in facility, grills, bar, rest. etc.... Any thoughts?

New to timesharing and to Hilton GVC. We want to reserve one of the 3 HGVC Carlsbad CA resorts in November. Which is the best of the three? We are not big beach people, so what to do near by.

I had a chance to visit Okinawa recently. While I was staying at a Double Tree Hotel in the downtown area, I saw other Hilton resort in Okinawa. And I totally forgot the name of the place where a new HGVC resort will be built in a few years. But I happened to go there. The place is called...

I don't really know where to put this because I just signed up to post this for you guys, but I'm going to say this is first an introduction and second a really well deserved thank you letter. Please move this if the post should be somewhere specific. My fiancée and I were in Orlando, FL this...

Hi all, pretty new here in TUG. Became a member a few weeks ago as I feel there are some knowledgable people here. Looking to purchase 7200 platinum biennial points in Oahu (1 bedroom at GW). The plan would be to add points a few years down the road. Any suggestions on what I should be...

Hi Everyone, I am posting for a friend who is thinking of buying at Ocean Oak. They went to a HGVC presentation this week while staying in Myrtle Beach and were offered a week each year at the above resort for $30K! Can anyone give their opinion on this purchase please? I encouraged them to...

I just went to a presentation and bought a very large number of HGVC points (given many bonus points) and am having major buyers remorse. The buyers remorse is that we just spent too much money and got more points than are going to be worth it. I read here that I can cancel/rescind that sale...

Can anyone explain what the 1 in 4 rule means at HGVC (particularly Hawaii)? Does it bar you from staying at that specific resort again in 4 years or anything within the HGVC system? Thanks, ;)

Hi everyone, Looking for help here. Attended sales pitch at the Elara in Vegas yesterday and decided to purchase a low point Package at the HG Paradise in Vegas. Applied for the Hilton AMEX card during the presentation because they lied to me and told me that Amex and Hilton points/ 12...
