It has been several years, but we loved this resort when we exchanged in. The staff was amazing, helping us when we had an issue with the family van. This will be a good find for someone that enjoys Hilton Head.

Thanks Sheila. The staff is great. We are very sad to let this go. However advancing age has posed new Travel challenges for us. We usually used this in late February with great access to golf courses and restaurants as well as light traffic!

What is the maintenance fee?

 

[Roger Burgess]

I have not seen the 2021 Fee yet. For 2020 the Fee was $895 (Includes $87 Real estate Tax, $285 Reserve Fee, and $523 Maintenance Fee). If you keep the sports Package (Golf, Tennis), last year's fee for that was $100.

Could some folks kindly provide feedback as to why no one wants this timeshare. It is on Hilton Head Island, gold crown, 3BR with 3 baths, walkable to a great beach, with free golf available! And it's free!!

 

[DianneL]

We own at Royal Dunes, every other year, and love it. We always use our week, never trade or rent it. Our week is Gold and we usually go in October. This is a great find for someone.

I agree with everyone, this is a nice resort on HHI.

Probably because it is only for winter months?

 

[Roger Burgess]

Thanks. I thought of that too I wish folks knew that HH has great weather during this time period. For years we went and played golf and used the pool, The ocean was too cold (for us) for swimming but still beautiful beach days. Also it could be used for trades. 3 bedrooms and 3 baths gets very good points.

 

[pedro47]

I feel the weather is not bad from April until late December. IMHO.

TBH, your initial post doesn't provide a lot of information. You need to really sell it. Provide information about what there is to do in the area. Photos or links to photos of the resort, villas, resort and golf course would be very helpful (unless it looks bad). You also failed to mention what the current or previous maintenance fee amount even is. People also often buy to trade, so providing the number of TPU from the TPU calculator is also very helpful as well as any resorts you have been able to trade into with this unit to give people an idea of what kind of trader it might be. You need to really point out the free golf for four people each day. While you want the buyer to pay closing costs, it may be a situation where you need to be willing to pay for these as the seller. You may even have to be willing to pay the 2021 maintenance fees and provide free usage to the buyer. That would undoubtedly be cheaper than using an exit company and better than defaulting. It also gives some value to the buyer to think they are getting a real deal.

To the OP, photos and information can be found under Royal Dunes website.
Including every room layout, interior and exterior photos, etc.

Good luck.

For those who love Port Royal Plantation in Hilton Head area this is one of my favorite places to stay when I am not at my Marriott. I use my ownership at Marriott Barony for other amenities. I Love that it is a 3Bed. Very spacious for large families.

I don't know why this is so hard to move. I have a High Season week that I've been trying to sell for peanuts for 5 years and nary any inquiry.

What is "peanuts"? Where have you been advertising it?

Surely, peanuts means different things to different people. Peanuts to me is more than free, so it cannot be discussed on this forum, sorry.

Understood. It seems that based on your experience and that of the OP, that these weeks don't really have a value, as much as owners may wish they did. Given the experience posted in this thread, it seems that the best way to try to "sell" one of these is to offer to pay all closing costs to the buyer as well as giving it to them for free. If that doesn't work, it may be necessary to throw in free usage. Still better and cheaper than some timeshare exit outfit.

How about this as more descriptive?

Each villa features two luxurious master bedrooms with king beds and private bathrooms. The third bedroom has two twin beds and its bath is across the hall featuring a walk in shower.

The villas will comfortably accommodate up to eight guests. Flat screen TV's in each bedroom and the living room. Free Internet access in the unit and public areas No stair climbing as each of the 4 buildings provide elevators.

Free Golf is included for up to 4 players each day at outstanding local courses. Covered garage parking included at no cost. This is a floating Bronze Week.

Reason for sale is after owning and enjoying using this and 2 other Royal Dunes (gold) Weeks for many years, we have sadly concluded that our age and health limits our ability to travel.

You need to keep it simple and to the point. People won't read through a long paragraph for details. Shoot, people have a hard time getting through a 280 character Tweet or a 5 minute YouTube video these days before stopping halfway through.

Here is a better example. USE YOUR OWN PHOTOS if you have them. If you don't have any of your own, perhaps use those from the resorts website.

This took me at most 45 minutes to write this up from details you already provided.
