Owner's update was low pressure 90 minutes, only new item learned was banking staroptions allows 2 more years of use according to the salesman.

Trying to sale WLR and Kaui, limited WKORV & North available, no plans to complete phase III anytime soon.

offer Retro for $25K with WLR Ocean Front EOY, 110K starpoints plus 4x 80K points at 1550 each

Said no but debating if worth moving toward 5-star or not

Off topic: The resort/island/weather is absolutely perfect really enjoy coming here it's been 4 years since last visit and will miss leaving this Heaven on Earth location

Glad to hear... we are leaving Saturday. We love our OFD at WKORV and the resort and location - this is our 7th visit.

I am unlikely to attend an Owners Update during my visit next week generally because they tend to yell at me, and we already have ~300K SPs), but how many SPs or other incentives are they offering?

Of course you know if you really want to get to 5* - make sure you can do so by requaling a resale - that would save $10000s

They offer 4500 starpoints to go to owners update or other discounted tours, we took the sunset cruise option in place of the starpoints.

For a requal they offered 80,000 starpoints plus additional 30,000 if bought during update. In addition, there was the option to purchase an additional 80,000 starpoints at $1550 (4 of these were offered, i.e. 4 x 80000 at 1550 each).

We have a WKORV to requal and would need to purchase a couple more resale prior to getting to 5 star.

We are leaving Tuesday March 07 so we overlap a few days.
