Weatherman is predicting rain almost everyday. Awww!

Do they offer an owners update and does anyone know what the owners update offerings are? Starpoints, resort credit?

Also, is City Market the prefered supermarket?

Thanks,
Paul
 
I am thinking it's probably showers - they come and go - it rains an hour in the afternoon and it clears up. Have a great trip!!
 
When we were there in May, they offered us $80 cash, but we turned it down. We took their tour last year, and it was very low pressure - easy money. We just didn't want to get involved because we had such a bad experience at Vistana Villages. That place is a nice resort, but the sales people are HORRIBLE.
 
Don't stress over the weather--it says that all the time and rarely rains all day!
 
We checked in Oct 8 and were offered $100 for preview; however, we declined. We had rain showers roughly every day but it did not disrupt activities. We still got in plenty of pool and water park time - more than we needed so I would say that weather was not a problem considering the season.

Many restaurants closed due to renovations or lack of business.

If you have not seen it before, go to fish and shark feeding sessions at 3pm. at the Royal Towers - very entertaining. We also took the shuttle to the One & Only Resort, Ocean Club property (owned by Atlantis owner); shuttle driver gave us a tour of the property ... very impressive & exclusive.

We stayed in building 7, 1 BR premium, in phase 1. Bathroom layout was not as nice as phase 2 units. Had a lot of problems with villa with things not working; ie, dishwasher not working; dryer not working; kitchen sink drain plugged. Called maintenance when we discovered problems and maintenace fixed all problems.
