Thank you everyone who contributes to this forum. It’s been amazing helpful to learn how this works. Doing lots of research before I purchase my first TS. When you reserve your home week, I’m curious how to avoid being assigned a room with a view of the hvac. Does the system assign a...

I’m interested in HGVC as a new owner. I have an existing timeshare with Disney Vacation Club (DVC) that I love and use all the time. Think I have a pretty good grasp on HGVC, but can someone illustrate the differences between the two? Want to make sure I am not assuming anything and making sure...

Trying to see if this is a good deal. Currently it should cost about $4k for this contract. I intend to just buy somewhere with low MF’s since I will most likely book elsewhere at 9 month window. Does this seem like good value?

Hello - is this a thing? I am waiting on ROFT on a large DVC contract that I got a relatively good deal on. It is way too many points for me and my family to use, but that’s probably why I got such a good deal on the price per point…..anyway, I was thinking of renting out the points but was...

We current own a resale Flamingo 11,200 2BR platinum deed and thus far, it has been very good for us. We just got back last month from a 12day stint at HGVC Kingsland and had an absolute blast. Add that to a week last fall in Orlando and we still had a few points leftover from this years...

Hello I found a HGVC in Hawaii that we are interested in (meeting points, season, MF, price we would be interested in etc we are not targeting JUST buying points at any resort for this specific purchase). We are already owners with HGVC so know it well. My question is specifically with this...

Please forgive me, as I am new to this group. I purchased a platinum deeded week at Tuscany Village almost 20 years ago. Since the merger with Diamond, it seems like I can never find availability anymore for the more desirable locations, even when checking exactly nine months out. We are...

Hello all! I’m wanting some advice on a situation I’m in. I have a timeshare with Hilton the HGV Max program. My wife and I own it already but don’t really use it much. We don’t want to keep paying maintenance fees on it since we don’t use it much. Should we sell it or try renting it out or just...

We own a Hilton timeshare with access to 22,000 points. It’s is paid off and the maintenance fees are paid through December. We used some RCI points through that membership to travel to the Vidanta in Nuevo Vallarta this past November and really loved the experience. We sat though the...

Hola. Just turned down 'opportunity ' to pay $25 to move our 12k us collection points to cabo collection. Told our maintenance fee would drop from $2400 to $1800 this year and likely never go up whereas US will go up 5% or more per year. We will recoup the $25k in less than 10years and be...

Today I am review a Homewood Suites Studio in Concord, Ca. I call this "timeshare Lite" because the unit has many of the features of a timeshare (full kitchen, pool, activities, Studio), but typically not as elegant as a timeshare... This is why you take the points when doing an owner update...

We signed on Sunday for a Hilton Grand Vacations timeshare with a 5 day rescission period, excluding Sundays. Letter was sent certified with return receipt requested this morning (Thursday). We love the property but parking is an issue and after more thought it’s just a lot of money for what we...

Today I am review a Homewood Suites one Bedroom in Fairfield, Ca. I call this "timeshare Lite" because the unit has many of the features of a timeshare (full kitchen, pool, activities, One bedroom), but typically not as elegant as a timeshare... This is why you take the points when doing an...

I'm looking for some advice on an issue with my marketing rental in Hawaii. I booked a week in Hawaii for my wife and 3 kids. We go next week. We booked a stay with a suite with two beds in the bedroom and a pull-out couch. We did this because one of our kids has serious problems sleeping in a...

I'm considering buying HGV points at Boulevard. The MF looks like the resort has low per-point compared to others. My question is, how many points would be a good starting point to get 5 days in a single bedroom at many US resorts, not including Orlando? I understand most timeshares require...

This video is for everyone who is a worrier on the day of travel like I am. Will I wake up in time? Are there traffic Delays? Will my Uber / Lyft Driver be available or show up? Is long term parking filled? I could go on and on... But I think you get the point. An option I have started...

Hi everyone, I’m excited to join this incredibly knowledgeable community. I am just returning from Florida after attending a Hilton Vacation Club session. We didn’t buy but the program has me interested in resales. A few questions: 1) Did I make the right call? The package was expensive for...

Does anyone have any experience with posting their HGV timeshare with Redweek? We are new to using Redweek and are unsure of the process. Any help and advice is appreciated!

Hello Friends, I just bought an HGVMax membership at Cabo Azul (The Diamond Property, at 5000 points)and have few days to rescind. I want to ask few questions to the group to ensure I am making the right decision. It appears that we could almost always buy the timeshare in the secondary...

In October of 2022 we signed for a HGVC in Las Vegas for Elara. The total cost was about $15,000 and we get 2560 points a year. Everything sounded good until we logged in and realized that 2560 points doesn't get you much of anything! Definitely not the "about 10 days" we were sold. Do I not...

This is one of the Hotels that you can book for a free nights stay by having the Hilton Aspire card. In my case, I had saved up two years and stayed for two nights. And what a luxury. Not only is the hotel stay free, but you get a $50/day meal benefit that you can use at one of the...

I am getting conflicting information about transferring my ownership in an HGVC property to our sons. How much does Hilton charge for the transfer? Can it be done by an attorney and then inform Hilton?

After traveling for a year (almost) and using credit cards for almost 100% of my payments, I thought I would do a video on why the American Express Aspire Card is my favorite. My travel is greater than most people so I do have a lot of experience using different cards. It is possible that you...

I wanted to make a video to explain the value of a timeshare as compared to staying in a hotel. This video compares the Hilton Grand Vacations Studio at Ocean Tower to the Hilton Waikoloa basic room. I go through the cost to rent each of them, the maintenance costs as an owner, and the actual...
