Well it took me a year and a half to double my total instead of 2 years. Up to 9 resorts now with 2 more new ones and a repeat scheduled still this year.

Two years later and I have doubled my list! I bought a Marriott resale week now though, so shouldn't take two more years to double it again I don't think....

1. St. Kitts
2. Royal Palms
3. Manor Club
4. Ocean Pointe

5. Lakeshore Reserve
6. OceanWatch
7. Aruba Surf Club
8. Summit Watch
9. Beachplace Towers

 

[pedro47]

Only the Manor Club + Seq, Fairway Villas, Grande Ocean, Barony, Surf Watch, Spice Busch, Swallow Tail, Grande Vista, Royal Palms and Ocean Poine.

I can add St. Kitts, Beach Place Towers, Ocean Watch, Heritage Club & Harbour Club both resorts are located in Harbour Town on Sea Pines Plantation, HHI.

To my surprise, it has only gone up by two resorts since my last post in 2021. The new ones have been bolded and one of those two might be cheating a little, technically we visited Shadow Ridge Villages in 2021, but I didn't have it on the list in that last post. Looks like we need to get to some new places, but even this year we are returning to many of the same resorts;

1. Aruba Surf Club
2. Barony Beach Club
3. Beachplace Towers
4. Canyon Villas
5. Crystal Shores
6. Custom House
7. Cypress Harbour
8. Desert Springs Villas I
9. Desert Springs Villas II
10. Grand Chateau
11. Grande Ocean
12. Grande Vista
13. Harbour Lake
14. Imperial Palms
15. Kauai Lagoons
16. Ko'Olina
17. Lakeshore Reserve
18. Maui Ocean Club
19. Monarch at Sea Pines
20. Ocean Pointe
21. Ocean Watch
22. Oceana Palms
23. Royal Palms
24. Sabal Palms
25. Shadow Ridge Enclaves
26. Shadow Ridge Villages
27. Surfwatch
28. Villas at Doral

Edit to add: Looks like I didn't have Doral listed. Not a new one though...

 

[jmhpsu93]

Our list (at some point we need to get out of the Eastern time zone...):

Grande Vista (owners)
Cypress Harbour
Lakeshore Reserve
Royal Palms
Oceana Palms
Ocean Pointe
SurfWatch
Barony Beach Club
Manor Club
Mayflower Pulse

Total = 10

Harbour Lake
New York Pulse
Manor Club Sequel

Total = 13

If you include Vistana I'd add both Orlando resorts and both Westin Cancun resorts.

We still need to get out of the Eastern time zone.

@pedro47 you mentioned St Kitts in post 114. Don't short yourself man!! ;-)

Your lack of travel to new places continues to be a disappointment to TUG and to YouTube!! ;-)

Very true.... Though, two of the resorts (Westin Lagunamar & Aruba Surf Club) we are visiting this year were ones we had been to before I really started to publish videos. While I do have some videos for them, they are old and garbage. So I will be able to get some new footage and put up better videos. I may even sneak over to the Aruba Ocean Club and do a tour there. Though when I was in Aruba in 2018 they gave me a hard time about recording video.

You were putting off that Perv vibe!! ;-)

 

[klpenny]

We are Sheraton/Westin people and now I guess Marriott people. If you count Westin's my number is much higher than 2 lol. I thought I would list them in case anyone is interested in knowing how they are. We are going to Marriott Frenchman's Cove and Marriott Beach Club St. Kitts this year.


1. Marriott Ocean Club Aruba
2. Marriott Manor Club Ford Colony Williamsburg
3. Westin Nanea Ocean Villa's Maui
4. Westin Kaanapali Ocean Resort Villas Maui

Edit to add: Looks like I didn't have Doral listed.

I'm surprised you haven't been to Legends Edge to check off Florida. Also it looks like you like canyon villas so much, you added it twice!

Edit: Forgot about South Beach. Still, you're pretty close to all of Florida. I think I recall you've been to a bunch of Florida resorts on the Vistana side as well?

They said it had something to do with Venezuela ... They approached me once when I was in the business center and then another time a security guy yelled from across the parking lot "no video" while I was walking, vlogging (recording myself).

 

[Quilter]

This got me to thinking…. Forgot how many until I started looking at some of the other lists.

Thanks dioxide45, I cheated by copying and editing your list. Please forgive my lazy ways.

• Cypress Harbour
• Desert Springs Villas
• Grande Ocean

You do realize you just classified Lagunamar as a Marriott resort? These are fighting words!

And here I was so proud of you not having listed any of the other Vistana resorts previously .

With Lagunamar, I was more referring to videos I have made, though I have avoided listing Vistana resorts here. If I had, that would be another 14. And if I really stretched it, I could list the 2 Hyatt properties. They are managed by MVW....

Took that off and remembered 2 more.
