You could always trade it in interval to go other places since that is a voluntary phase. I’d look for a platinum week in a mandatory phase (key west or Bella). If trading is your goal and you want orlando mostly then I’d look at an SDO unit, also voluntary. You’ll get great trades when you go to Orlando or when you want to go somewhere else.Hello, were new to buying a timeshare, we found a resale week 25 unit that works for us. Are there any issues with Sheraton vistana villas? Any other costs I should know about beside the $1,104 maint fee?
I learned everything from @dioxide45 listen to his advice and you won’t go wrong.Thanks for the heads up. It’s a 2 bedroom villa In the spa phase. We average a week in Orlando so our primary use will be Orlando. we had a bad experience with westgate this week( we were buying an annual week, however when we went to sign, it was changed to odd year usage. closing person blamed salesman, Salesman who apparently works for his own LLC and not westgate said his mistake but westgate said they’re not obliged to honor anything from the salesman since they’re all independent llc’s. It was all kinds of shady) So I appreciate the information!
Did you buy a getaway in vistana villages or Sheraton vistana Resort? Two different resorts completely. Miles away from each other. The names Bella, key west, spa, cascades, at Augustine are all “phases” within each resort. You’d have to look at a resort map of each to figure out where each phase is on each complex. Bella, key west, and st Augustine are in Vistana Villages. The others are in vistana resort. It’s important to know which Timeshare complex you’re in. Then when you check in, they will assign you a room in a building in a particular phase/section of the complex.unless you have a preference of where in the resort you want to stay i wouldn’t be concerned with which phase they put you in. Others more familiar with the layout may give their own opinions on each.I stayed at Vistana once a few years ago, and remembered the resort had two distinct "villages". Can you explain the difference between Bella, Spa, Key West, etc?? I bought a getaway for there in September, and I don't know which is which
