The Fountains and Lakes area all refurbishments are complete and I think that is the case for all other areas as well. They are replacing the roofs in the Fountains area at the present time.

...Both Fountains I and II have Fri, Sat and Sun check ...

Welcome! Thanks for the color coding - I've never noticed that before.

You probably have newer info but the chart on mystarcentral shows a difference in check-in days between I and II.

Fourntains I and II are a little complicated.

All sold as floating weeks with 2 original seasons, Prime and High.

Some members joined SVN after renovations and the seasons were changed to more closely allign with SVV seasons (Prime = 6-17, 23-34, 39-47, 51-52; High = all other weeks).

If never converted to SVN, or purchased in resale market after conversion to SVN, I would think the seasons would revert back to the original seasons as the week would go back to non-SVN status.

Does anyone know what the original seasons were?

The original Prime Weeks are: 5-35, 40-47, 50-52 and all others are High weeks. I own a re-sale Fountain I week and not part of SVN so the original weeks still apply to me. From Owner Services FAQ:

"Prime Time Season Week owners wishing to reserve a High Time Season Week can make a reservation request within 60 days of the desired occupancy date. There is no fee for a season downgrade.

High Time Season Week owners wishing to reserve a Prime Time Season Week, pay a season upgrade fee per day for each unit week night reserved and the reservation request may be made only within 60 days of the desired occupancy date."


When I spoke to Owner Services back in April, they told me that the Vistana Vacation Club program was still applicable for Fountains I. I have exchanged my week every year since I bought it, but should I choose to use it, I am able to either book a week at SVR, or Vistana Beach Club or split the 7 days between both resorts.
