You know very well the answers to your post because we discussed them during the two and a half hour meeting you, I and the resort manager had where we answered virtually all of your questions. You've continued to take us to task for answers you say you never got but that's completely untrue. You should know, you were at the meeting and the meeting was at your request. You also agreed that, if you had additional questions, you would contact me and I would be happy to answer them for you. So, why do you post your questions and comments here instead of asking me?
Split week reservations at Southcape Resort are not a "right" but a privilege that was extended to owners when there was availability. There is no mention of split weeks anywhere in the condominium documents and we don't inform owners of split weeks as we're not authorized to even offer split weeks. We've continued the practice on a limited basis as the previous trustees started doing it a few years ago even though it wasn't permitted by the documents. As we improve the rental program and sell the weeks, there will eventually be no availability for a split week reservation. We do make occasional exceptions for owners when we can but we need everyone to understand in advance that splitting your week was never intended nor included in your documents. In fact, at our meeting, you specifically asked me if you could split your week and I told you that we would absolutely consider it depending upon availability and if your fees were current. You might also want to consider that, when you split a week, you take half of two separate weeks and you prevent the resort from renting a full week and generating money from delinquent owners for much needed operating income.
As I also recall, you own a float week. While you are deeded a specific week in a specific unit for ownership purposes, your documents specifically state that your occupancy rights are not for that specific unit but subject to what is available during the floating season when you make your reservation. That is the entire function of a split week and floating time. All of the units currently being renovated are "floating" units and no owner has been denied occupancy at all.
The documents are silent as to when units can be renovated and we schedule renovations during those times when we have units empty. You have a float week and you've been given a high demand week to occupy during your float season (week 7) just as you always have. If you have made a split week reservation for week 7, you have prevented us from renting that week during a time when there is a lot of rental demand. Nevertheless, we confirmed your request for a reservation simply because you are an owner and we try to accommodate owners whenever possible. I can understand why you might not appreciate that and thank us for it but I'm surprised that you're criticizing us for bending over backwards to assist you. You are a deeded float owner and you do have use of a week when you want it in perhaps the highest demand week outside of summer so I frankly do not understand your complaint.
