We didn't stay there, but dh & I did a timeshare presentation there when it was in the process of being built. The plans looked awesome, and the rooms that were finished were beautiful.

FYI...
I'm sure you'll have to attend some sort of sales pitch. Know that they were pretty high pressure, and came down in price 3 times after we kept telling them no. We got home, did some research on the internet and found you could pick them up for 1/4 of the price or less on resale websites. I wouldn't buy from them EVER, but wouldn't hesitate to stay there :)

I, too, did a TS presentation there. The place is extremely nice and the condos themselves are incredible.

I agree with ReneeA, they came down on the price I think from $400 to 75 dollars a month! I would stay there for a vacation though. Loved that jacuzzi!

I went through the presentation for reasons other than wanting to buy. The units are pretty big and reasonably well furnished ( IMHO not as nice as the DVC resorts) the facilities ( pool etc were pretty good) . I would say that the timeshare sales pitch was pretty rough and they work you over pretty good. If you're not interested in buying be FIRM and don't waiver. They will give you a hard time and be prepared to spend a couple of hours there.

It's a decent enough place to stay, but I didn't like the sales pitch. WAY TOO HARD SELL.
