Margaritaville Vacation Club is a club within a Club Wyndham Plus, (The other ckubs within Club Wyndham Plus are : Club Wyndham Select, Club Wyndham Access, and Club Wyndham Presidential Reserve) and there are other sub Club Wyndhams coming (Club Wyndham Asia, and Brazil for example)
Heres waht the website says about "intra club" reservations: (ive bolded info of importance to a Platinum owner.
As I read Margarita owners will get ARP and Platinum Club Wyndham Plus owners will be able to reserve at 10 months. However 50% of the units may be held for Margarita owners up to check in
Heres what the website says:
"From 13 months to 11 months in advance of arrival, Margaritaville Vacation Club owners will enjoy exclusive access to their "home" resort.
Reservations at Margaritaville Vacation Club resorts will be available exclusively to Margaritaville Vacation Club owners and CLUB WYNDHAM®
Plus VIP members. VIP status and benefits are recognized at these locations.
Reservation timelines will depend on VIP tier level:
VIP Silver may book reservations 6 months prior to check-in date (High and Value seasons only)
VIP Gold may book reservations 8 months prior to check-in date
VIP Platinum may book reservations 10 months prior to check-in date"
also
"Margaritaville Vacation Club owners have an Advance Reservation Priority (ARP), which allows you to confirm a reservation from 13-11 months in advance of your check-in date at your “home” resort. If additional resorts are added to Margaritaville Vacation Club, then owners will enjoy access to these resorts 11-10 months prior to arrival.*
Reservations made within the Advance Reservation Priority window are subject to availability, and can only be made using points associated with your Margaritaville Vacation Club ownership.
Margaritaville Vacation Club owners within CLUB WYNDHAM Plus are eligible to request a reservation (10 months prior to check-in) at any of the more than 75 resort locations listed in the “Your Resort Collection” section of the CLUB WYNDHAM Plus Member’s Directory, pages 10-211.
During the St. Somewhere Society Privilege Period, from 10 months to the date of arrival, up to 50 percent of unreserved Standard Margaritaville Vacation Club inventory may be held back for the exclusive access of Margaritaville Vacation Club Standard owners, subject to availability."
So how easy or difficult will it be for a Platinum Club Wyndham owner to get a reservation?? The answer at this point is its anyones guess. My guess is that until the place is sold out, there should be no problem. And if Wyndham continues to add new locations it will be no problem until they are all nearly sold out
