Sticky - TUG Ratings of Diamond Resorts

[TUGBrian]

going through these now and found an issue.

within TUG i find two identical Royal palm beach resort pages...both with current and valid info (same rci/ii codes)...but with much different reviews. one has 7, the other has 30+

are there two phases to this resort? or is this just a big snafu and I need to combine them?

strong work!

I count 72 "branded and managed" resorts in that list.

the rest come under the "affiliated" list...that is probably as good as we are going to get!

Thanks. Looks like there should be 72 from the list plus 9 from the recent acquisition of the Pacific Monarch resorts:

• Cabo Azul Resort in San Jose del Cabo, Mexico
• Cancun Resort in Las Vegas, NV
• Cedar Breaks Lodge & Spa in Brian Head, UT
• Desert Isle of Palm Springs in Palm Springs, CA
• Palm Canyon Resort & Spa in Palm Springs, CA
• Riviera Beach & Spa Resort in Capistrano Beach, CA
• Riviera Shores Resort in Capistrano Beach, CA
• Riviera Oaks Resort & Racquet Club in Ramona, CA
• Tahoe Seasons Resort in South Lake Tahoe, CA

also found a possible dupe for Roundhouse resort...thoughts?

 

[TUGBrian]

nm, found crags

 

[TUGBrian]

this will have to be a work in progress, looots of updating to do =)

were up to about 50 now!

 

[TUGBrian]

ok, believe I got most of them ( I left off the ones that appear to be marinas/boat slips in europe, i found this a bit odd)

 

[VegasBella]

Looks like the list is still missing the ones acquired from Monarch Grand Vacations.

doh, see those now in the thread...adding

 

[TUGBrian]

I do note on the website that the "desert isle of palm springs" is labeled as "affiliated" despite being in the group of MGV resorts?

note - same with Tahoe Seasons

both also retain their private websites where all of hte other MGV resort links are dead.

Golden Eagle/Historic Crags Lodge

I don't see Golden Eagle/Crags Lodge in Estes Park, CO listed under the Diamond Resorts.

new affiliates for Club points exchange in Australia

there are nuances in Diamonds club system. Some affiliates are exchangeable within the US collection (and other collections) with a 13 month window, other are not. Most non-managed do not have short stay,midweek check in discounts.

Within the club, global reservations using points.

I tried to attach the 2015-16 Annual Global Reservation directory which lists all- making the file complete--the error message was that TUG didn't get a security token- I think the file is too large

Monarch Grand Vacations exclusive locations

· Cancun Resort (Las Vegas, NV)

Monarch Grand Vacations location (not managed by MGV)

· Cedar Breaks Lodge & Spa (Brians Head, UT)

· Desert Isle of Palm Springs (Palm Springs)

· Tahoe Seasons Resort (South Lake Tahoe)

So there are three resorts where not "monarch grand" MGV resorts but affiliates of MGV

Now that MGV is part of DRI I'm not sure where those three resorts fit in.

Sorry

yea, definately a nice flux many of these resorts are in in terms of how they should be branded. im a bit fuzzy on it myself. hoping that DRI owners can come up with a consensus that makes it easy for all to decipher!

per uploading of the file...the limit on files is like 3mb now...how big is it?

you can email it to tug@tug2.net if its under say 20megs

Thank you.

I've sent one more file relating to US Member benefits 2015/6 which compliment the other files. TIA.

The other European and other (?) , I have no access to but If some does please copy it as a pdf so that others can understand that program.

Thank you- it saves time as I seem to have to tediously search for it on DRI's site.

@TUGBrian Brian I don't think Teton Club is a Diamond resort. I've never seen any references to it as a Diamond location. It's listed as a club "affiliate." I think it's a Raintree resort.
