We are thinking at doing something similar to
@byeloe - buying a 2 BRD LO at Lagunamar and look for points via an SVV resale. Given that some time has passed - it d be curious to see how happy the owners of resale units at Lagunamar are and if you're happy with your choice? In particular as the Marriott consolidation will happen sooner versus later...
Thank you!
We are very happy Lagunamar resale owners, we love WLR for many reasons: pool (arguably one of the nicest in the whole Marriott/Vistana system), beach, views, location, restaurants in proximity, tours, overall cost, service, abundance of chairs at the pools and at the beach, free mini-golf (owners only), waterside, no mosquitoes, great internet just to name a few! As owners we have priority to the best units for the best views and the best availability. The availability does not seem to be an issue for booking with StarOptions right now (we also own a mandatory contract at SVV) but that may change if Marriott owners are allowed in the system so I am very happy to own my week(s) at Lagunamar directly.
