Lisa: What did you use to deposit and with whom to get such great places? Was it in off seasons? Inquiring minds want to know

Cathy-
I'm almost embarrassed to admit the great exchanges I've had with II in Flexchange. It wasn't my intention to brag about them!

I currently own Marriott Summit Watch, bronze & silver and previously had Marriott Mountainside silver weeks. I've also purchased several week 53 Marriott's that I used for some trades outside of Flexchange.

for us: Marriott Waiohai

Great location, units, grounds, staff, view, beach, size we could just stay at the resort for a week and be happy

As I posted recently, I went down Long Creek Road a couple weeks ago and the only development I found was Red Rock Bluff, the property that documents show Bluegreen bought, I thought. There wasn't another new (meaning different, of course) development anywhere on Long Creek Road.

There are two rows of patio home duplexes, new (different, again), unsold, not being used, and ample vacant land for anything else they want.

None of the signage indicated Bluegreen, timeshare, or a resort in the works. The only compnay mentioned was a local developer, MPI.

Bluegreen is adding 4 and 5 bedroom houses right near Big Cedar in a resort section to be called Long Creek Ranch. Can't wait to see those Presidential style units and use one for a family reunion.

These are all very nice resorts in outstanding locations, and in no particular order - except #1 is really my #1:

1. Alpin (previously Anfi) Palace, Muerren, Switzerland - mostly only hotel units, but nice ones, in the most beautiful place I've ever been.

Keitht, eal and KevinRS, and anyone else who has liked Banff Rocky Mountain Resort (and can travel as only a single or a couple): you'd be awestruck by this place too.

2. Hilton, NYC (why isn't this in RCI anymore? )
3. Pacific Shores, BC - waterfront unit
4. Cala Pi, Mallorca -waterview unit
5. Monarch at Sea Pines, Hilton Head - direct oceanfront bldg
6. Pestana/Carlton Madeira Beach Club - all are oceanfront
7. Mondi-Holiday Grundlsee, Austria - lakeview unit
8. Red Wolf Lakeside Lodge, Lake Tahoe - lakefront unit in newer building
9. Royal Sea Cliff, Kona - newly-refurbished oceanview unit
10. Morritts Grand

Those are the ones that come to mind immediately - I'm quite view-oriented as you can see. I would love to return to any and all of these.

II - Ocho Cascadas, Puerto Vallarta

RCI - Pueblo Bonito Emerald Bay, Mazatlan

Very different resorts...but both are genuinely 5 star experiences, from resort grounds/landscaping to unit comfort/decor/maintenance to diligent and caring staff. Oh, and did I mention the VIEWS?!!
