resort opening dates for Eagle's Nest?

[JLB]

dont worry JLB i am sure that all those canceleed reservation were hgvc and not rci. Those hgvc ,marco resorts will never be readily available to rci. Thats why you never saw them.

I usetacould.

We've stayed at Club Regency in January. In September I saw Surf Club for January, 07.

I'm fixin to do an update on my January search of SW FL.

Eagles Nest Reopening Date

I recieved a call yesterday from a HGVC rep and was informed that the Eagles Nest might not open until mid Feburary. They also gave us the option of the new Sunset Cove which was not damaged. I took it, the resort looks great, although not directly on the beach it is nearby. All the units are 3 bedroom and there are 36 units. HGVC made my day.
I will put in a review upon returning.

To add to my post number 26 above, during the first two years I searched for January in SW Florida (January, 2004), which I started on March 27, 2002, I saw nine Gold Crowns or RIDs on the Beach, mostly HGVC. We took one of them and stayed at Club Regency.

For 2005 and 2006 I only saw GCs or RIDs on the Beach twice. In my first 11 months of searching for January, 2007, I have also seen them twice, Surf Club and Seawatch.

I've been watching this thread for a few months. Does anyone have any new info?? We have reservations at Eagle's Nest the first week in March. I really hope they will be open by then, but at what point do I start looking for alternative lodging? Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks!

Here is the link to HGVC info on the closed resorts.

I looked at it and it looks iffy for any Feb reservations at Eagles Nest but I'd call the resort.

Good Luck

I walked by the Eagle's Nest today, and it is definitely closed. The tiles are off the main roof, and the top center screened in lanai is still caved in. The place is a ghost town, except for one worker I could see.

Speaking of Surf and Charter,

Charter Club - Construction Zone - DO NOT ENTER:

Club Regency - Only Time Share on the beach that's open:

The Hilton was pretty busy, but the Marriot was EMPTY. The weather was beautiful!

CHarter club is not doing a special assessment for Hurricane Wilma, rather they used some reserves and increased the maintenence fees slightly to cover repairs & replace the sliders with hurricane glass.

No special assessments at Eagle's Nest. Supposedly we have really good insurance thru HGVC. We lost our 4 weeks due to the damage and are being refunded the maintenance fees for last year.
