Is there a way SVO account can be linked to my Bonvoy account? Probably missed out on a bit since Marriott took over… I can procrastinate a bit.
Thanks!
 
If it's not linked, you should call owner services to do that for you. Normally any reservation you make at Westin or Sheraton should have your Bonvoy number attached and will then show up on marriott.com
 
For Vistana owners that buy direct, their Bonvoy number is automatically added to their ownership profile. This goes back to the old Starwood and SPG days. Those old SPG accounts remained linked when SPG became part of Bonvoy. I suspect yours isn't linked because you bought resale?

Direct purchase (and requalified/retro) Vistana ownership comes with the ability to convert to Bonvoy as well as automatic Bonvoy Gold. Resale owners don't have the same benefits. I haven't tried adding my Bonvoy number to my Vistana ownership profile yet. If you call, let us know how it goes. I recall in the past that people have called to try to have it added and were told it can't be added for resale owners. Others have had success. YMMV.

As for getting elite night credits for Vistana stays, I just make sure our Bonvoy numbers are on the reservation at checkin.
 
My VSE resales are linked to my BonVoy account. I did it from an email sent a couple of years ago.
So… there’s that.

Yeah, I think it comes down to a YMMV. It has worked for some in the past and others have reported no dice. I am going to try and get ours added one of these days and report back our level of success. With Marriott resale weeks, getting it added is as easy as doing an online chat and giving them the Bonvoy number.
 
I lack the patience to wait for the call center so will wait for the email method and see what happens…

Patience for the call center is a prerequisite for timeshare ownership!

I called last week and got right through to a person who helped with the issue I was calling about. Both the website and the call center seem to be doing much better lately.
