The timeshare was at vacation village at parkway. Westgate Palace is just where we stayed for 2 nights. I wouldn't consider owning there but it was sure a nice place to visit even though they were painting.
By the way if you think Westgate Palace is a nice resort then you haven't seen nothing yet! At best that ranks in the lower middle of quality - there are many that are much nicer in Orlando. The Palace is a hotel conversion with few amenities and not that great a location. You are in for a treat as you get to see what other resorts offer!
And you will need RCI Points for VV. But that is a good thing as they give you full access to all of RCI Points & Weeks as well as "float" use at almost all resorts that use the points. Of course weeks based resorts use 7 day periods.
