I think you have the info that's applicable. As I understand it since it's a week after 1 July, the special options won't apply. Still, I'd call MVC first just in case. If you don't have an II account already, you likely should call II also. Of course you could deposit online if you have a current account that's active and this resort is in your resort list.

From the COVID-19 Cancellation Help page linked on the owners.marriottvacationclub.com homepage:

*** Amenities may be closed or limited to support social distancing. For current status of individual resorts and destinations, please visit our Resort Status page. ***

*********************************

I'm canceling a Reservation Made With Vacation Club Points More Than 60 Days From Arrival: If you are seeking to cancel your reservation booked with your Vacation Club Points and are due to arrive more than 60 days from the day you cancel, you may do so without penalty. Your usage will be returned to your account and will be accessible for use upon completion of cancellation.

*********************************

I'm canceling a Reservation Made With Vacation Club Points Within 60 Days Of Arrival:
If you are seeking to cancel your reservation and are due to arrive 1 to 60 days from the day you cancel, your Vacation Club Points will be returned to a Holding Account; however, the Points Premium (if any) will be forfeited.
  • For Vacation Club Points expiring anytime in 2020 or 2021 and placed into a Holding Account, the expiration deadline will be extended through December 31, 2021, and can be used for a villa reservation or select Explorer offerings within 120 days of arrival instead of the previous 60 days of arrival. The December 31, 2021 extension will be made to your account within two weeks.
If you are seeking to cancel your reservation on the date of arrival or while staying at one of our resorts, Vacation Club Points will not be returned.

*********************************

I'm canceling a Reservation Made With Ownership Week(s) and My Arrival Date Is On or Before July 1, 2020:
You will receive an Interval International week that will be deposited into your Interval International account within the next 10 days for future use. The Interval International week will have a reduced exchange rate of $99 and will expire on December 16, 2021. You will be able to check availability up to 120 days prior to your desired arrival date.

*********************************

I'm canceling a Reservation Made With Ownership Week(s) and My Arrival Date Is After July 1, 2020:

My Scheduled Arrival Is 60 Days or More from My Date of Cancellation

  • Your usage will be returned to your account and will be accessible for use upon completion of cancellation without penalty. If you don't plan to use your ownership week, you may also deposit your week with Interval International as a full deposit, usable for travel up to 24 months after the check-out date of your deposited week for the reservation you are canceling.
My Scheduled Arrival Is 59 Days to 14 Days from My Date of Cancellation
  • While cancellations are not permitted, your week can be deposited with Interval International for a Late Deposit. You will have two years from the check-out date of your deposited week to travel and can check availability up to 59 days before your desired arrival date.
My Scheduled Arrival Is Less Than 14 Days from My Date of Cancellation
  • While Cancellations are not permitted, you may be eligible for a Short Notice deposit through Interval International on a very limited basis. Please contact Owner Services to check availability. If accepted by Interval International, you will have two years from the check-out date of your deposited week to travel and can check availability up to 30 days before your desired arrival date.
  • Please note that only full villas/units (no lock-offs) are eligible for requesting Short Notice deposit.
*********************************

Due to extended hold times, if you would like to cancel a reservation for an arrival in the next 75 days, we ask that you submit your request via our contact form. (Note link may require sign-in to your account. <-- SDJ)

*********************************

  • If you have a reservation confirmed through Interval International, please contact them directly at intervalworld.com. (Link should direct to II's COVID-related cancellation page; may require sign-in to your II account. <-- SDJ)

*********************************

Based on government mandated restrictions — including resort closures — these options may not apply to all resorts.

I posted in this thread in order to get all the official information quoted in one TUG post that's easily bookmarked, and I hope it helps others, but the thread's being locked because there are multiple open threads related to COVID-related cancelations.
