Marriott's Ocean Pointe Owners and Friends

[TUGBrian]

Thank you Suzanne. I have figured out how to find the Marriott Ocean Pointe page. I am new to TUG so just feeling my way. Would we use this page to rent a week or would we pay the annual membership to become a TUG member and post the week on a rental and resort section?

rentals arent permitted on the forums other than in the last minute rental section (and certain limitations apply).

but yes, you can post rentals in the marketplace with a membership.

We usually stay the month of February, but with my new position as “Nonni-Care” to our precious granddaughter, we will only be there for one week February 2021. Has to be a quick ‘thaw’ from the Northeast!

We have not received our annual meeting notification or vote proxy. Anyone else receive it yet? I looked to see if I could view it on the MVCI website but couldn’t find it. Maybe not out yet?

We got the one from Canyon Villas but not Ocean Pointe. Guess it'll come soon.

I received mine via email along with the proposed budget. The proposed budget is the fully funded version mandated by the state of Florida and not the final budget.

Hey fellow OPers - Susan and I will arrive at OP in late January and will hang around until early April, and we will again "host" OP owners and guests at weekly no-host cocktail parties at the Kingfish. This will be our 6th year doing this, I believe, and we've had as many as 30 folks attend, so the more the merrier. We begin at 5 pm every Thursday. Everyone brings snacks that are shared with other attendees, and everyone brings their own drinks. The pool bar is usually open until 6 so you can get cups and ice there, and drinks/food as well, until they close. Of course the bar may not be open due to the COVID situation, so we'll play that by ear. Also, because of the virus, we'll have to adjust the seating to keep everyone safe. Hey, we'll give it a shot and see what happens. As always, we will provide name tags to protect the innocent. See you in January! And please stay safe! Will send additional reminders out as time goes by.

Good Morning,
Have a unit up for rent but received an email from VacationCandy. Anyone here have any experience with them? Actually kinda turned it down but now wondering if I should contact them.
Thanks

I used them once for Crystal Shores. It was very smooth and easy. I too was skeptical at first but read some reviews and talked to the folks at Vacation Candy. They pretty much deal with Marriott and a few select other properties.

I have dealt with Vacation Candy with several rentals over the years, and they are very good and reliable.

Anyone else notice that the glowing reviews for Vacation Candy are coming from people that have registered yesterday and this is their first post? Hmmmmm...

I think that is to be expected in this thread as this thread is mainly full of people moving over from an existing Yahoo group that is going away in December. I don't suspect any of them are shills.

Be sure to click the "WATCH" box about one third of the way down from the very top of the page on the right hand side. ALSO, be sure you are logged in.

We have received our Proxy form for Ocean Pointe and plan to reply via the internet.

We are coming down late Feb into early March. Will there be spacing at the pool areas to comply with COVID rules? Will there be a reduced number of units occupied for the same reason? I'm concerned that if we come down in prime season we won't have the same accommodations and space as in more "normal" times.

We are reduced to only 1 week this year (instead of our 4-6), not because of covid, family dynamics... And we are just hoping for the best! Coming from New York, the thaw alone will be a blessing .

We will drive down from Philly and stay at OP for 2 weeks. We, too, will be hoping for the best and better weather there than here. I guess we need to decide by mid December for sure taking into consideration the levels of COVID here and there.
