Would consider DS II, if 2 Bd available.
The DS Villas location in Coachella Valley is the best one for us this trip.
DM w/questions or availability.
Thanks!

You might also want to add/consider DSV1 (next door to DSV2) as well as Westin Desert Willow (about a mile or two away).

Yes, my post title included DSV I, as preferred. I’ll look again at my notes from WDWillow stay. Thanks for the suggestion!

Not meant as an offence, but maintenance fees is about $2K for a week, unless someone is stuck with a reservation that can't be used, I don't see how anyone would rent out a week here for $800. A late deposit (split into 2 weeks) into II is worth much more than $800. Redweek has one with check-in on 1/16 for $2.5K.

Not offense taken. Three years ago I suggested to the TUG Crew increasing the maximum asking price to $1000 for the specific reason you've posted here....for many properties these days $800 won't come close to covering maintanance fees, particularly for larger units - those 2bd or 3 bd units. I thought even a sliding scale would work: higher minimum for additional bedrooms (e.g. Max $800 per 1 bed unit, $1000 per two bed, etc). The decision was made at that time to keep the asking price in the $100 - $150/ night range.

My experiences using the site has been most who respond send a DM with a much higher/market level price offering. So essentially, this forum represents an ability to get your wish out there for a unit not found elsewhere. Then, someone who is unable to use their unit at the last minute or two as the ability to recoup a few dollars from lost maintenance fees.

(Sorry for the delayed response. I thought I posted a reply using Tapatalk...doesn't show here for some reason.

If you have II, you maybe able to trade for something on those dates. I see the dates come on now and again.
