VISTANA TO ABOUND

[Suthersc]

I just spend several hours talking to various Vistana agents. I noticed a 2nd Club fee $240 on one of my 3 Westin Kierland ownerships. What happened was 2 of my ownerships were pulled into the abound program and the 3rd unit recently purchased is not eligible for abound amd remains part of VSN. So a separate membership fee was charged. Does anyone know if by purchasing 2nd hand Abound points can I pulp the 3rd unit into the abound program ? Or would i have to do this through owner services

Resale Abound purchases will not help enroll a different resale ownership into Abound. You have to do it with a retail purchase directly from MVC, and you will have to make sure the enrollment is part of the purchase contract.

Or direct from Westin/Vistana.

Good point. I completely spaced on the fact that they were talking about enrolling a WKV week. And you can generally enroll Westin/Sheraton weeks via Vistana purchases a lot cheaper than you can enroll Marriott weeks with MVC.
