We are trying to rent a 3br unit at [an HGVC Resort]
[dates redacted]

How do I check this availbility if I'm not a member? Would it be best to put a want ad out on tug2 under the resort ?

Have you checked the rentals listed on TUG & Redweek, and other timeshare rental websites?

OK, have you looked at Redweek and other rental websites? 3 bedrooms are not easy to come by - will take some research.

The challenge with 3-bedroom units is that most resorts don't have that many, and some don't have any. Some of the Hawaii resorts only sold these as fixed weeks, so really need a specific person to opt to rent their unit out.

I have not tried to rent one, but have booked a 3-bedroom with HGV club points.

The HGVC Grand Waikikian and Grand Islander three bedroom penthouse units on Oahu were sold as fixed week / fixed units and automatically reserved for those owners. They don’t become available unless released by the owner. Your best option is to book multiple smaller units.
