We are cutting back on our timeshare ownership.
Marriott Grande Vista 2 bedroom annual use gold season
Member of Florida club
Can be split into 1 bed and studio to enjoy 2 weeks of use.
Beautiful resort with the option to trade into others through Interval International
Buyer will pay all fees associated with the transfer
Ownership will start in 2027.
Maintenance fees were $1998.26 per year
Hope this goes to a good home as we have enjoyed it and the trades we have received very much.
 
We are going to be doing a deed back with Marriott if nobody wants this. If interested please let me know in the next couple of days.
Thanks
 
If you do the deedback, please let us know the terms. Thanks.

Sad to think that the only outlet now for a gold Grande Vista is to pay the $400 and deed it back. I would have thought someone would take a freebie offer here. Our gold MGV week still trades good for us. We haven't deposited 2027 to see if there is any impact on trading power as some have reported, but we've got great trades over the years with ours.

It is sad but we are in our mid 70’s now and circumstances have changed. We got it many years ago from a tugger for the same deal of just paying the closing costs. We have had so many great vacations with it . Bringing family to the Ko’Olina and Newport Coast on a regular basis. We actually just got back from a week at the Ko’Olina and a week at Kaua’i beach club in January. It certainly doesn’t owe us anything but I would like to see it go to another family rather than back to Marriott. I’m sure we’ll enjoy the 2026 weeks and then sadly put an end to our Grande Vista time.
 
There are a couple of II Facebook groups. Someone there may be interested. In the II / DVC group, if you explain how you can book Myrtle Beach and trade into DVC that way, and get 2 weeks, I think it will go.
Good luck.

THe proble is that you can't use Grande Vista to trade into DVC. There is a work around through the Florida Club though.

Right, but that might have to be explained to prospective buyers.
