Westin Ka'anapali fixed week, floating unit? Is there such a thing?

[rickandcindy23]

I am negotiating on a week at Westin Ka'anapali and the reservation is reserved for the fixed week for 2025. I was under the impression there were no fixed weeks at Westin Ka'anapali, so this is a new one on me. It's a week we would probably be there every year, perfect for us, so if it's fixed, Rick is okay moving forward.

I think Weeks 51 and 52 might be fixed?

The contract I am signing for consideration by the sellers says this :

When owners bought from the developer, they were offered the chance to fix the week and unit for a large premium. However, it can be used just like a floating week, as well. That doesn't mean that the contract is accurate, but a resort info letter from Vistana/Marriott should disclose that info.

Here's a link to an old 2012 discussion regarding Ultra Premium, Ultra and Event week owners.
See FredM and DavidnRobin's posts (#33 through #43).

WKORV reservations -- 365 days out but still 2nd floor?

I think W5* was referencing posting style (which I got over a long time ago). No one is being childish - personal preferences do exist - we have ours (2529 or 2629) for reasons we stated, but we were quite happy to be in 3529, and would make do with whatever we received as long as it was...

At Westin St John in BV, CV and SB you had an option to buy a fixed week unit by paying 10% more. I am sure it was higher for holiday weeks. These units were fixed or could float in their season. At Sunset Bay, all the fixed weeks had a Friday check in.

We bought a fixed week resale as well. You can use it anytime. (except 51 & 52).

Yes. We bought a fixed week 6 and a week 11 there. Both resale

My recollection is that it was the same at WKORV. A 10% premium for a fixed week, and then 10% more if you also wanted a fixed unit. Weeks 51 and 52 were "special" pricing; I don't know about fixed units for those weeks.

I don't know how many fixed week units were actually sold for weeks 1-50; they are unicorns.
