I have tried to gather a lot of information from this forum but given the importance of this purchase I want to make sure I truly understand the ins & outs of this. We travel as a couple at least 3 times a year. No grandkids yet (will still be a while) so mostly interested in beach locations. We go to Cancun at a minimum 1X per year. I see the following opportunity:
I understand the EOYO I understand how the weeks work, what is confusing me is the Star Option points - I thought I don't get those through a resale? Is White week a good thing? While I may want to trade occasionally I would be very happy just using my week in Cancun EOYO - perhaps a silly question but do I pay the annual maintenance fee even in the years that I am not eligible to stay? I am already a lifetime Gold Elite through Marriott Bonvoy as a result of all my other travels through the years. Any and all advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
