Where is the Additional $30 for EOY Weeks?

[dioxide45]

Reading through the forum, I have often seen reference to an additional $30 added to the maintenance fees for those owing EOY Vistana weeks. Looking at this thread, I am not seeing it. The annual fee for SVV Key West is $597.17 where the EOY fee is $298.59. That is exactly half. I own an EOY week at SVV Key West and don't see an extra add on fee of $30. Does this not apply to all properties?

For SDO, it has been reported that Vistana adds $30 MF to EOY weeks. Maybe it has to do with mandatory vs. voluntary resort - just guessing...

Some resorts have it set up that way while others do not. Maybe an oruginal Vistana thing. Sheraton Broadway plantation has it but SBP -palmetto phase does not

i used all my 148k points for Lagunamar (home resort is Kierland). Booked my bro in law for 1 night (they used theirs for the remainder) my inlaws for 7 nights bedroom. And for ourselves we booked 6 nights 1bed premium and got charged $30 fee. Not sure why.

We own every year.

I think this is the housekeeping fee for making multiple reservations with your StarOptions?

Yes. $30 is for housekeeping. They don't always get it right in tracking if any housekeeping credits are left. It is to my understanding that a 2BR lockout should get 2 housekeeping if booked separately. I used up x numbers of SOs for a week in a 1BR and then used the remaining smaller amount in another place for a few nights. Online booking showed that I would be charged $30 in housekeping. When I stayed at the resort, I was not charged the $30.
