I have a Four Seasons Villamoura Portugal for August. The rest are internal HGVC trades.

Great resort..I stayed twice!

Thanks @nerodog for the recommendation. FWIW...We let this res go because we already have travel plans for this year. Hope a TUGer got it. We will try for next year.

Booked a week at the Avila Beach Club in Avila Beach for the last week of April and just snagged another 4 nights there June 30-July 3 again through RCI. Also used my WKV options to book 2 weeks at the Westin Kaanapali Ocean Resort Villas North May 24- June 7. Now looking for 5-7 days at the Vino Bello Resort in Napa in August. Also picked up the first week of October at the Laguna Surf in Laguna Beach through RCI. And finally, got 4 nights at the Marriott Newport Coast Villas Sept 6-10 over Labor day on a intro package (at a outstanding price.)
still looking for more. 2020 looks to be a good year

Just added 2 weeks at the Imperial of Waikiki for first 2 weeks of December (the Imperial is a super timeshare with a premiere location and wonderful staff and has had a complete soft remodel) and used some free Wyndham nights to go to the San Diego Zoo Safari Park this month, February. The 2 nights are Free at Harrah’s (attended a Wyndham presentation 2 years agoand got 2 free night) about 20 minutes away and the Safari Park is free during the month of February for seniors. Pretty good deal.

Amazing what I am getting from HGVC for short term, a February week at Sunset Cove, Marco Island and a March Week at Eagles Nest, Marco Island.

Had to trade our Hyatt Sedona. Was able to trade into Marriott Timberlodge 2bdrm/1bdrm in Oct 2020. Added E Plus because we are actually looking for 2021.

We got a 3-night package at NCV at $99 in September to tag to a week which we have booked. We have to go to the presentation and they will give us a $100 AmEx card, essentially making the 3 nights free.

Not sure if it's considered "great" since we've never been there before, but we got the Wyndham Inn on the Harbor in Newport, RI for a week in October.

Beautiful resort...I've stayed 2x there and it's really nice...clean and well maintained. If you have interest they have a tour desk to offer day trips around the Algarve right outside your door. Nice restaurants as well...supermarket very closeby.

Got two, 2 bedroom Ocean Pointe units during Fall Break for my two bedroom (lockoff) unit at Grand Vista. Eplussed both of them and hoping for three bedrooms.

I pulled two, 2-bedroom units at the Morritt's Grand in Grand Caymen for consecutive weeks in July 2021. This is our favorite resort and we have been going every 2 years for a while now (since they lifted the 1 in 4 rule). We do a "girls week" for the first week where my mom, my sister, and I all bring along one of our best friends. The six of us all have such a great time together! For the second week, the girls minus me, go back home and my hubby flies out, along with any of our children who can make the trip. My favorite exchange by far!!

 

[missyrcrews]

I just traded my late October 2BR/1Ba "mud" week for a 2BR at Village of Loon Mountain for Feb vacation week next year. Yes, I know it's not the Ritz....but location and timing trump all. Plus, it has a loft with 2 twins...NOBODY HAS TO SLEEP ON THE COUCH. And 2 baths. WIN FOR MAMA!!! And I actually have a deposit credit. To quote one of our long time members, "Is this a great country or what?" Doing my happy dance!

Booked the first week of February at Sheraton Desert Oasis. Also a week in May (2021) at the Royal Floridian on Ormond Beach.

Okay, so how do I earn the title "Official TUG Pool Recruiter"? Because intrigued.

I am having great luck with HGVC. Haven’t been on the site for days and today just waiting for me was Seawatch on the Beach Fort Myers, a one bedroom so I save points. It is for a week late March. I was set to go to Longboat Keys in a studio which I was able to get recently but Longboat is not a favorite of my other half, so this was a find.
