We would like to go back to Sea Mountain-rented there a few years ago, but it doesn't appear to be really available for trade. does anyone have information about this? I know that it is managed by Vacation Internationale.


Thanks

Anita
 
Sea Mountain should be an easy trade. You might want to try Hawaii Timeshare Exchange. www.htse.net

I like Hawaii timeshare exchange because they don't "weight" their deposits. Any deposit can trade for any exchange of the same size. You can upgrade from a 1 bdm. to a 2 bdm. for $175. To check out their inventory - go to www.htse.net and put 9999 in the top box and htse in the bottom box. Note that the online inventory is the leftovers, after ongoing requests have been filled (just like RCI and II.)

Memberships: 

$49.00 - One Year

$125.00 - Three Year

$199.00 - Five Year

Exchanges: 

$79 - Internal Exchange (return to home resort) 

$99 - Hawaii/U.S. Mainland Resorts

$109 - International

Upgrades: 

$175 - Studio to 1bdrm or 1bdrm to 2bdrm

$275 - Studio to 2bdrm


No matter which exchange company you choose - make sure you put in an ongoing request well in advance - the online inventory is the leftovers, after all ongoing requests have been filled.

*I don't see anything listed for Sea Mountain (but remember the online inventory is the leftovers) so you may want to email them and see if the get deposits from them - info@htse.net

Platinum Interchange always seems to have Sea Mountain weeks. Currently
they have weeks in June, July, September, October and November in 2012.
They have 9 weeks availible right now. Hope this helps.:D
 
We just spent two weeks at Sea Mountain through Platinum interchange....no membership fee with them. Stayed last year there through PI and already have next December booked.
 
Wonderful information here- thanks to all.

Yes, there is no minimum stay requirement at most VI properties, including Sea Mountain.
 
Cool. Our friends are looking for one night in/near Hilo to add to their week at Kings Land.

According to Google maps it is 59 miles, and a little over an hour's drive, from Sea Mountain to Hilo.
