I booked 4 weeks at Sands Villa Resort at Atlantic Beach, NC 28512 through RCI. I was informed today that I would be charged an extra 150 dollars per week for an extra housecleaning fee. That is 600 dollars I had not counted on. If I cancel the 4 weeks with RCI I will lose 996 dollars in trading fees and my week values will go down. How can a timeshare complex legally charge a duplicate fee that has already been paid by the owner ? I don't care what anybody says this practice is wrong and descriminatory since it is only directed at RCI traders. It is also wrong since the timeshare owners have already paid this in their maintenance fees. It is getting to the point that timeshare complexes will figure out any way to separate you from your money. I wish a good attorney would sue them and take them to the cleaners. I know the head of the Board is an attorney so that even shocks me more. I think of the word CROOKED when these things happen. I hope RCI's legal department will take action but even RCI has let me down many times in the past. I get the idea that people that are timeshare owners should put their timeshares in an LLC to protect themselves from these criminals.
