New stupid nickel and diming thing they are doing at Ocean Walk

Amazon has an ice maker you can put on the countertop. If you drive, that might be a solution to having an ice shortage. I thought about buying one when I was chewing ice for anemia for our house.

I actually own one of those and keep it at work. I don't want to lug it around with me to the resorts. As it is, I take enough stuff.
 
The loss of mid-week cleanings still bugs me.

What is even worse is no cleaning for a two-week stay.

We experienced that twice now. No longer will we stay two weeks and save Wyndham money on housekeeping. I will book a different unit type and move or stay elsewhere.

We own one as well that produces small ice pellets - I find it painfully slow overall - and we wouldn't travel with it either.

Who can suggest how to get some reliable information on some of the things discussed here? Who can we ask at Wyndham or HOA's? It would be interesting, to say the least, to understand the expenses/budget hits discussed here:
* Who gets the profits from the bistros/market place type enterprises?
* Who pays for the bottles of wine that you might receive if you are nice (those and boxes of chocolate, celebration type items that infrequently are gifted to owners and guests)?
* Who's getting the parking fees - let's say at Bonnet Creek? How much of a cut does Metropolis get or what do they charge?
Where do the profits from these type things land and do they affect positively or negatively the bottom line to the owners (their maintenance fees)? Sure you can say it's happening everywhere, but who's getting the juice from these squeezes?

That is a good question. The HOA should be able to answer most of that.
