- Marriott Manor Club - 3 weeks platinum, 2 weeks at Marriott Beachplace Towers, and 1 week at Marriott Canyon Villas
You've got some good advice here. In my case, I wanted to buy Marriott and the closest one was Williamsburg - about 11 hour drive from home in Toronto. It was my first. My second was in Fort Lauderdale where I've been going every Feb-Mar for the last 30 years or so. When I bought BeachPlace it was so much better than my Ft. Laud timeshare (weeks 7&8) that I sold those weeks and bought another BeachPlace. I always drive to Lauderdale (33 hours) to have my own car and stay 4 weeks (2 split lockoff weeks). Then I bought another at Manor Club ... then one at Canyon Villas Phoenix which is a resort to which I have to fly. My intent was to trade it EOY for points and use it in other years.
So I have 5 weeks to which I can drive and 1 that I can't ... 10 weeks in all with lockoff splits. Nice...and big savings if you can drive and have the time to do so.
