2 Bedroom Villa
2012 Maintenance fee's paid for week 43 annual float.
Home Season: Flex
Annual Maintenance Fee: $1,287.04
This unit is free and costs associated with the transfer will be paid by the seller.

Check out their website: http://www.starwoodvacationownership.com/vistanas_beach_club/welcome.html

Please let me know if you are interested!

More Info. - Provided by Starwood:

"Home Season - Flex" is indicative of the season you own; also known as High season. High season includes weeks 18-23, 36-45 and 48-49.

The benefits of the Starwood Vacation Network (SVN) membership will not carry over to the new owners. The new owners will only be able to travel to their Home Resort and the Sheraton Vistana Resort, located in Orlando, Florida. The new owners will not be able to convert their weeks to StarPoints, they will not be entitled to a Gold Level membership with Starwood Preferred Guest (SPG) nor will they be provided a Corporate level membership with Interval International (II).

The new owners' booking windows will go as follows:

12 months in advance

· Can book reservations at Vistana’s Beach Club for seven nights, check-in on Friday, Saturday and Sunday

11 months in advance

· Can now also book reservations at the Sheraton Vistana Resort, in Fountains phases I/II within their season

· Can also split weeks into combinations of: one five-night stay and on two-night stay, one four-night stay and one three-night stay, two two-night stays and one three-night stay (Housekeeping fees may apply)

60 days in advance

· Can now also request Season upgrades for weeks outside of High season (Season upgrade fee: $25 per night/$175 per week)

I hope this information has been helpful. Please feel free to let us know if you have additional questions or concerns regarding your ownership week.

Home Season: Flex - is this a 1-52 floating week?

Added - The OP is helping her mom give away this week, and I am going to see if I can help her figure out what the season is and post an update.

NOT JUST JENSEN BEACH: 11 months in advance: Can now also book reservations at the Sheraton Vistana Resort, in Fountains phases I/II within their season
 
Hi, is this still available? and just so i'm clear, the purchaser would not be able to trade into another starwood hotel through the starwood network, but would be able to do so through interval?
 
This is still available..until Monday; I've had no interest and will be going through a liquidation program to get rid of it. I am handling this for my elderly mother, so I do not know the answer to the Interval question. I would love to give this away, but have had no interest.
 
I would definitely send her a PM if you're interested. And, yes, you would be able to trade through II, like every other voluntary resort.

Interesting, though, that you can book at SVR internally without going through II.
 
if there is serious interest, my email is cathield@aol.com. I am up against a deadline before we have to hang on to this for another year, which is not an option.
