Petty disappointment with Marriott Vacation Club

I would think with most maintenance fees around $2,000 per week or more the resorts could supply a better quality toilet paper. I personally would gladly pay a few dollars more per week to get better quality. I'm currently at Barony Beach and they are using Cottonelle, it is a thin...

MAX-if you upgraded are you happy?

In 2023, I queried “why would I want to upgrade to MAX from legacy HGVC?” So, now that’s it’s been 2 years, who’s happy (not) with MAX? Anything that has been great/disappointment? Would you do it again? What is cheapest way (with Vegas hgvc points) to get into MAX? Thanks, Elaine

note i exclude the main forum pages (like the marriott subforum page itself) from these lists and only pick the top unique topic pages when i do this...otherwise /forums would be the top every time! =)

(for those that care, the marriott forum page is the most viewed out of all the forums..followed by sightings, then hilton, then last minute rentals, lounge, then vistana)

the club wyndham thread was the most viewed page in 2025.

number 2 was: https://tugbbs.com/forums/threads/hgvc-detailed-resort-affiliated-information.254931/

id have to generate a larger report to get more than that as so many of the top results for the entire year were the main forum homepages etc.

the main problem with this report is it only shows a single page, and if someone clicks on a specific page (like say page 9 of the wyndham forum) that wont count as a view for the main thread page etc.

its not perfect, but still interesting!

Surprised, and saddened, to see that Vistana seems to have fallen so far. I remember a much more active forum in the past.
