I'll name one I think qualifies. It is the CasaBlanca in Mesquite, NV. MFs are $260 for a one bedroom villa. The story I have heard is that the CasaBlanca Resort/Casino was originally built by Merv Griffin. He had separate villas built for his "high rollers". After the Casino/Resort went South it was reorganized with the high roller villas being converted to timeshares. The timeshares have sold so well that additional buildings have been built. They trade with II but I don't know how well as I always use my Week.
The CasaBlanca Resort/Casino is by far the class of Mesquite. Now I admit Mesquite may not be for everyone but I like it and so must a lot of others who are paying really top dollar for their condos or homes.
Nevertheless, the MF is reasonable (I just paid my $260 and booked my 2006 week the other day) and the units well maintained. Note that the CasaBlanca (Oficially called the CasaBlanca Vacation Club) is an RTU which I think has something like 40 years to go, but being 70 y.o. I really don't care!!
As I mentioned in a proior post TS Owners get 50% off in the Spa and on the Golf Course, and 25% in the Gift Shop and in the Restaurants, all of which I might add are pretty darn nice.
