We are former owners at Grand Villas Resort, formerly Cypress Pointe Grande Villas (Phase II).
Much as we liked Cypress Pointe Phase I, we liked Cypress Pointe Phase II even more (mainly because of elevators in all the condo buildings -- no walk-ups).
All ownership was floating weeks -- Diamond Season (premium weeks) & Emerald Season (the other weeks).
We took an "owner update" sales tour of Phase II while we were staying our 1st time at Phase I. After we got home, we looked for Cypress Pointe Phase II on eBay, found it, & sniped in a winning bid (less than we paid resale for Phase I) for what turned out to be unit B36A10B. We kept that for several years & enjoyed the resort very much.
Full Disclosure: Now that we are hard core sr. citz. (in our mid-80s), we have shed all our timeshare ownership except the bare minimum -- a 1BR triennial points unit out in Las Vegas. That does not generate enough points for much of an exchange into anybody else's timeshare, so we increasingly rely on low-cost alternatives like
Last Call &
Bonus Week reservations, & more recently on discounted reservations through
Armed Forces Vacation Club. So far, so good.
