A real kicker that I've just noticed is that the Sep-Feb Williamsburg is now coming up at 75% off! Don't know if anything else is as deeply discounted.

I recently booked a guest into 30days (Oct-Nov) in Williamburg which would have normally been 18,400 SunOptions, I had booked it at 50% off or 9200 SunOptions. Today I rebooked it at 4600 SunOptions (I had taken the $20 Reservation Protection so there was no cancellation penalty).

Also just rebooked a bunch of Williamsburg Thanksgiving weeks. They should have been 7500 SunOptions as a holiday week but the SunOptions Calendar was off by a week so they were like ~2000 SunOptions on 50% off, now I've rebooked them for ~1000 SunOptions (no penalty >60 days out).

I called Sunterra asking why I'm not getting InfoFirst emails and they have no clue.
I checked with my ISP and they say it's not blocked.
Anyone want to forward me the email link so I can send my ISP the complete header to properly review? (I don't get MouseSavers through them either)

I Want My SunTV! (well, that was a play on original MTV promos)

I struggled to get Sedona for Oct 1-6, but we got our days at Summit.
Want to find time at San Luis Bay Inn around Christmas-New Years, but WebRes comes up N/A most all the time.
Looking at Williamsburg in 2007 in late Sept/Oct, and if points work then like they are now, we'll be doing 12 days, no problem.
Branson in late April '07 is also on the option block, 5 nights unless you knowledgable people give us options to extend. (2 shows, Dixie Stampeed, Silver City, Shopping, Bass Pro Shops--oops thats 3 days in itself right there)

Thanks for all this BBS does. Good info, great tips!

I don't think they really have too much Club inventory there, meaning not too many conversions from fixed or floating, however it was originally deeded/sold.

Spence,

Do they have these kinds of deals every year? These are really great.

 

[Spence]

75% off is a bit unusual.
This amount off combined with availability goes to show that there has been some miscalculation in SunOptions value!

I own two week 1-52 at Lake Tahoe Vacation Resort, almost makes me want to buy into Sun Options. But I think I will wait and see wha happens to Sunterra.
