Most info on the internet is geared towards weekly allotments of timeshare. It suggests purchasing in "prime" locations for exchange "power". However, because Wyndham uses points & has so many resorts, does it matter where you buy with them?

For instance, if I purchase at one of their cheapest-valued resorts, are those points "equal" in exchange to the same number of points purchased at a higher-valued resort? Or in other words, what’s the buyer’s incentive in purchasing points from one resort, as opposed to another?

I would like to have formula and diapers delivered to our vacation condo located north of Puerto Vallarta & be able to avoid taking so much with us on the plane or needing to stop in Puerto Vallarta with tired infant and toddler before heading out of the city. Thanks!

Trying to decide if should stay in a condo or cottage for vacation. I heard condos are nice & your room/area is bigger than a hotel/motel. What’s the difference between the two?

Can anyone give some advice if this would be a good or bad destination for a family of four? (2 kids ages 5 & 4) We are planning to go the last week of May and found a great condo on the 2nd row on South Ocean Blvd (between 17th and 18th street). Is this a good safe location? Is there food and shopping close by? What about the weather the last week of May? Can we swim?

for our honeymoon my fiance and i are planning on flying to ireland, going to wales & germany, and probably flying back out of ireland (unless we can get a good deal from another country but i think it’s usually best to fly back where you fly in)
we’re going next may (probably 5/5/10 or so)
my dad is letting us use his timeshare in ireland, we have friends in wales and family in germany to stay with so we won’t need lodging included
still not sure if we’re renting a car or not…
when would be the best time to purchase the tickets, and where should we buy them?
flying out of NY but can be albany, the city, even stewart (new burgh)

This bogus company goes by the name of "Cancun Luxury Travel" , or says "Sunny Getaways/Vacations" on your bank statement. I fell for buying a 5 nights all inclusive for 8 & my receipt said the money was going to be paid directly to the "hotel" today. Which is not true at all!! When you call to confirm, you have to pick a hotel, and pay 0 peak season fee, plus another PER Person taxes. You think you are booked, but another lady calls you to start asking you jobs, age and if you’re married and then tries to get you to go on a 90 min timeshare presentation. When you refuse, the 1st company you paid calls you back claiming that you cancelled the trip by refusing the timeshare, when from the beginning they never said ANYTHING about a timeshare presentation or having to be married. They then say you have to basically go on a timeshare presentation or pick a different hotel, which then yet another company calls you "claiming" to work for the hotel, which all seams soooo sketchy and asking for the PER person taxes, so 0. When I said I want to pay the hotel directly when I arrive in Cancun, they say "that’s not how it works" and will not confirm with the hotel until you pay. It’s basically just all a SCAM to get you to pay more money and god knows if the hotel will even have your reservation or a room. After researching the hotel, most ALL the reviews are bad and say that they wont even let you check in until you agree to go on a timeshare presentation & harass you the whole time you are there!
Is there ANYONE ELSE out there who fell for this?? I want to go to the better business bureau and report this company!!!! PLEASE contact me!!!

I’m going to Miami from 5/24-5/28. I don’t have to worry about hotel(we have time share & it’s paid for) Nor do I have the worries of a rental that is also paid for. I won’t have kids or hubby with me; it’s strictly a girls get away. I’m not looking to do alot of tourist events; I really just want to have a good time, hit a few bars, maybe get a massage & party a lil. The timeshare condo has a full kitchen; I don’t care to cook while on vacation; but perhaps grab a few snacks, bagels, juice & things like that to prevent from buying too much stuff. I’m really savvy when it comes to spending…how much do you think I’ll need for spending?
I won’t be in Miami all day on the 28th; our flight leaves pretty early. So technically I won’t be doing anthing on the last day; but just prepping to return home.

Me and my family are hoping to go to Florida over the winter break, and came across a 9 deal at "Calypso Cay Suites" in Orlando, Florida, which is owned by Calypso Cay Resorts and is on the same property. According to the deal, which you can read at http://www.saveonresorts.com/resorts/orlando/amerisuites.asp?promo=GGwdwCCSfloridaCAN&gclid=CMuZ39fy65YCFQazsgodhDx_rQ#, you pay 9 for four days (three nights) at their hotel, get two free adult tickets to Disney World, a buy-one-get-one-free adult ticket pass for "Arabian Nights Dinner Theatre", free shuttle services to theme parks, a free continental breakfast, and a room that apparently sleeps 6. It sounds like a great deal, but I’m wary of the low price. Apparently we’ll have to sit through a 90 minute "sales presentation" on why we should buy timeshares with Calypso Cay Resort, but they say it’s the only catch. If anyone has used this package before and can share their experiences, I’d be very grateful.

1 timeshare is ‘weeks’ & one is ‘points’. Not tied down to a particular week or resort.

I’m trying to evaluate whether it would be cheaper to rent a condo for 5 days or pay per night in a B&B. If B&B, any options for one in Waikiki that’s close to International marketplace?
