HGVC Maui

[Maverick1963]

HGVC Maui model room is being built. Now I am convinced that they will have a property in Maui. The showroom is between Grand Islander's and the slope up to the GW lobby. Here is a picture.

The fact that it was announced and whatnot didn't convince you?

I'm happy to see more signs of progress -- I will be most convinced when we see groundbreaking at the site, as we've seen fits and starts with other properties.

Thanks for posting this.

Best,

Greg

We should take a poll on when there will be heads in beds there, I'll take March 2020.

I'll go with June 2019 (phase 1), with it fully built out by end of 2020.

And pre-contruction selling begins in Spring 2018.

And that the points chart will look like:

Resort View 1BR - 7,200
Resort View 2BR - 8,400
Ocean View 1BR - 12,600
Ocean View 2BR - 14,400

This is basically the Grand Islander points chart.

Best,

Greg

Better look with a bit of correction.

I agree on the points, i have been think higher point property from the beginning...

I am also guessing this will be more challenging to book, closer to Oahu than Big Island...

That chart seems way too agressive. ...but what do I know. ..

Effect on Big Island

Will be interesting to see what effect the Maui property has on Big Island occupancy, particularly given the aggressive expansion of relatively high point Kings Land.

Aggressive in terms of point requirements or you think the build out will be much slower?

The expansion at KL has been lowered point values, I haven't seen a chart for phase 3 yet. Phase 2 was only 2 buildings.

I think people are assuming Maui will be like Waikiki Hawaiian Village with higher demand, higher end amenities, and higher point values. The new Islander tower at HHV uses the higher point chart.

From HGVC's email newsletter, three new resorts on the horizon including Maui. None of this is new news, but it is official from HGVC expected to open in 2017.

Hilton Grand Vacations Club is coming to Maui! Construction began earlier this year on the first Club property on Hawaii’s second-largest island. The resort, which has yet to be formally named, will be located in southern Maui on the eastern edge of Maalaea Bay adjacent to the Humpback Whale Sanctuary Visitor Center and Kalepolepo Beach Park. It will be developed in the style of a Hawaiian villa, featuring 740 feet of oceanfront property and 388 one-, two- and three-bedroom units. The new Maui resort is expected to open in 2017

Just curious if new Maui resort will pull from BI, pull from Oahu, pull from non HGVC properties or just add new travelers.

Seems to me it may pull from BI resorts. Not sure that is bad since I prefer the BI and as long as the resorts stay solvent, the fewer people there the better!

Also seems to me Kingsland is expanding too rapidly given the overall condo availability in Waikoloa Beach Resort area, but that is Hilton's worry. Again, low occupancy would just mean greater flexibility for me!

My guess is that Maui will pull from both Oahu and Big Island, but will probably also open HGVC up for lot of new travelers.

Not scientific, but know that Maui is by far the favorite island among my friends and coworkers. Many of my coworkers complain that Waikiki it too crowded and Big Island too slow... Maui seems to be just right for many Californians....

Ha! I've been hearing from HGVC since we purchased our first unit in 1999 that they were working on building a timeshare on Maui.

 

[Sandy VDH]

speaking of Hawaii and HGVC, has anyone heard anything about the plans to convert the ocean towers of Waikoloa Village to a timeshare? I haven't heard anything lately about the request to rezone.

According to someone in sales with whom I talked briefly in Sept., it's still coming but after Grand Waikikian and Kings' Land phase 3 are finished. Still waiting on permits for that conversion.

Here are a few plan representations I was able to find.
