new owner

I will be closing on a Grande Vista 2BR Gold FC timeshare (my first one) soon. I've read a lot on the forums and wanted to see what others thought. My goal for 2023 is to go to Ocean Pointe week 25 (June gold season) and Westin Kierland week 44 (Nov platinum season). Need a 1 bedroom minimum...

Hi I am a first time timeshare owner and today I nervously signed on the dotted line to ‘own’ Woodstone Luxury (week 1) at Massanutten. I am not entirely interested in coming to Massanutten again, but am owning this mostly for the points which I would like to use at other locations through...

Got it, advice is to rescind. Are all costs ex. Closing fee etc. returned? Next step: Can I get educated by current Wyndham owners or where can I find answers... I'm in process of reading all the disclosures. Just purchased 127,000 points in TN Smokies as first time owner. We travel a lot...

I finally found the right deal after having several Desert Springs II ROFRed. Now how long before I can access my account? I know MVC is quick because my Vistana purchases have appeared in my account same month.

Well, our WOR showed up in our II account today. Now waiting for HRC to send me a “Welcome Packet/Email”. Does anyone know how long this normally takes?

Hello! Just got back from Cabo. We decided to buy a "vacation club" membership with the Villa Group after touring the gorgeous new Villa La Valencia and also spending time at Villa Del Arco. I LOVE Mexico, and we go at least every other year so the numbers seemed to make sense long term. I wish...

Hi everyone, My wife and I are new to TUG today!! :whooopie: Thanks to TUG we avoided buying at a sales presentation in Hawaii, (that lady was GOOD! and actually very nice and non pressuring, shocking right!) and we now own 224k at Bonnet Creek (for almost nothing!:banana:) My wife and I...

I have to admit it was very stupid of me to get into a TS contract without fully understanding what I was getting myself into. The offer sounded good and salesperson was an aged lady from the same city I was from - long story short, I had my guard down and didn't carefully assess if I need and...

Hello, my husband and I purchased a Westin timeshare today. We purchased the points option with our home resort being the new Westin Desert Willow in Palm Desert, CA. What are the downsides to timeshare ownership? Does anyone regret their purchase? Of course, it all sounds great when you're in...
