Is there such thing Staroptions availability calendar

[MichaelJC]

We recently bought a re-sale week at Westin Kierland Villas with 148,000 staroption points "platinum season". When trying to reserve with "flexible dates" the flexibility is only 2 days one way or another from what ever date I pick. I am not finding anything available. I would love to be able to look at an open calendar for a resort and start by picking dates that show as available. Anyone aware of any such resource? Thank you in advance, Michael

What are you trying to reserve? If you're looking at Kierland for late Feb / early March, 2026, many of those dates are fully reserved (and remember, for Home Resort Usage, you are limited to reservations starting Fri, Sat, and Sun only).

I'm on the computer at midnight EDT on the relevant date to get Kierland reservations in March.

If you are making a home resort reservation, the furthest out that you can make it is exactly 12 mos. before check-in, at midnight eastern/9 pacific, and you cannot "see it," before then. And only for Fri/Sat/Sun check-in dates, and only for 7 nights.

The next 2026 date you can reserve is Friday, Mar. 20, 2026, and it's available, even though you can't see it, because no one can reserve before midnight tonight.

So, tonight (Mar. 19) at midnight eastern, 9 pm pacific, you can make a home resort Resv. for Friday, Mar. 20, 2026.

Tomorrow at midnight, you can reserve Saturday, Mar. 21, 2026.

Friday, at midnight, you can reserve Sunday, Mar. 22, 2026.

March is the most popular season for WKV, so if you can't see anything before Mar. 20, that means that it is already book solid.

* If you are trying to check a large number of dates quickly, you can check a whole month with about 8 searches by checking every Wed. & Sun. and clicking on "flexible dates." Of course, you can't check more than 12 mos. out, but you don't need to, because everything 12+ mos. out is available.

In the past when there was no availability for the dates you were wanting to reserve, the system would show you a calendar of dates that were available. That was taken away several years ago. I think the only way to do that now is when searching home resort availability. It doesn't work for Home Resort reservations. Also realize that Home Resort reservations are only 7 nights and checkin on certain days of the week, usually Friday Saturday or Sunday. Though the days depend on the resort and Flex can checkin on any date. So any time you are searching for something not considered Home Resort, it is considred StarOption and will only allow you to search at 8 months.

I second DeniseM. During MLB Spring Training weeks, Kierland weeks are in high demand. Your best shot is shooting for you're reservation at the opening bell - 00:00:01 am Eastern exactly 12 months in advance. You'll get used to the planning and diligence so don't lose heart. You can still get some late March times. Platinum includes week 21.

Thank you for your insight and taking time to reply.

Thank you. I did not know there were specific check in dates or that reservation were for 7 days at a time. That helps explain.
