Hi, I just found this forum. I have been trying to find information on the Escapes Resorts Vote to remain a timeshare. I wish I had gotten your info before November 6th, 2012, which is when they were meeting for this vote. I have gotten the proxy and after reading the downfall of voting Not to Extend the Declaration I unhappily voted yes to Extend. But wanted to vote NO. I had received a letter from Coopershares Owners Association towards the end of October 2012 and it had a Replacement Proxy enclosed with the letter. However I laid the letter down and did not read it until today and did not know I could change my vote. I am going to fill out the Proxy anyway and send it to Escapes. I just want on the record that I am changing my vote to NO. Probably won't change anything, but I feel better having it on record. Do you think sending this Proxy now will be a smart thing or not make any difference at all? Thank you in advance for any info you can give me on this issue.

The maintenance fees have gone up each and every single year since I've owned a week at this resort (HSV). Then we had to pay Special Assessments on top of that. YUCK.

 

[Happytravels]

Extended yes, but now Festiva wants thousands from you.

I was pleased about the extension. Then I saw we are only assured RCI & II affiliation until 2015. Festiva wants thousands of dollars for "conversion" to their benefits which I see as grossly unfair. I use my unit for trading through RCI and II. I never stay in the week/unit. Festiva will be the "major" vote since they purchased all unsold units from Escapes/Cooper. See my post under the "Festiva" thread. I feel I have been duped by paying the recent assessment, only to sell out to Festiva after the fact. Festiva Rep showed me the "tiny" piece of the pie that will soon be "HOA." In other words, they will control the resort and our "Association" will be "little" to nothing, meaningless. Management should have made their plan to sell, known to owners prior to assessment of $535. I feel I have been deceived and cheated.
