Are there daily resort fees when using HGVC points for RCI in addition to the $299 fee?

[Wolfgheist]

I started the booking process, but all it shows are some taxes and the $299 fee for the Wyndham next to the HHV. I did not want to get surprise charges.

There can be. Always read the fee section for each property

Well dangit, while I was typing this post, it timed out. I went back to book it again and now it says not available. :/

Club Wyndham Waikiki Marina Resort at the Ilikai​

I cannot find a fee section during the booking.

The 'may' and 'will' wording regarding housekeeping fees is confusing. So if you're staying 7 nights or more the $111 fee is not charged but for lesser number of nights it is charged?

Otherwise, $64.71/day extra charges beyond the exchange fee?

Only if you have a car that you need to park.

Pretty much all Hawaii timeshare properties charge transient occupancy tax, or TOT. It looks like that is about $20/night at this property.

And it looks like that is based on a studio unit size, implies that it is more for larger unit.

I think all the units here are studios. Could be wrong about that though.

I suppose you pay the TOT as an owner too?

Yes, anyone staying on a timeshare stay pays TSO (state of HI refers to it as TSO, not TOT).

 

[Wolfgheist]

So it will be the $299 and $20 a night?

Where is $299 coming from? The exchange fee? If so, ignore that. You have to pay that to RCI. Resort fees are separate and it does look like there could be an additional $111 fee, per stay.

There is no $111 fee, it says waived since staying the minimum 7 nights.

We have rooms at my timeshare, but my father in law belatedly decided to come, so having to use RCI points to get him a room at a hotel that is right next to HHV.
