2BR deluxe unit (sleeps 8) at Wyndham Bonnet Creek for Independence Day weekend. Unit has 2 full baths, full kitchen, whirlpool tub, balcony or deck. Cost $460.
Regardless, I think you're taking a big chance with your guests. "Seem to be," "pretty sure," and "It seems that" don't provide much in the way of assurances.
If you were a renter, would you travel from Toronto if the owner were only "pretty sure" that you'd be able to check in after the owner tried to game the system with a very late guest registration?
As an owner, I want something far more positive before I'll register a guest.
They seem to be cancelling well ahead of the checkin date. I am pretty sure they would not turn you away at checkin if it was already confirmed a day or two before.
Am I the only one who thinks this sounds a lot like a timeshare sales spin to make a rental?Still available. It seems that Wyndham is changing its policy on guest confirmations again, allowing them for reservations after June 15.

If it sounds too good to be true ... and all that buyer beware stuff.
What if owner reservations at Bonnet Creek were cancelled to meet occupancy limits. Would late day guest certificates be honored? They certainly should not be.
Why would it "be beneficial for a local" and not a non-local? It is being advertised to everyone and anyone. Do non-locals know it might not be beneficial to them?Like cbyrne said, this post could be beneficial for a local.

What about the guy who added three nights to this reservation at another Orlando resort using his hotel points and is planning to drive his family from Ohio for a week-long vacation, just as an example? In this environment, this 4 day reservation has no guarantee and a very high risk of cancellation. That risk, imo, should be spelled-out in the advertisement. The advertiser is certainly aware of the risk, but wants to downplay it.Because people generally don't travel a great distance for a 4 night reservation.
