How much are annual dues for other Timeshares

[mark&sue]

This is probably a question for Dean?

I never did any research into other timeshares before we bought into DVC as I knew it was what I wanted, but was wondering if the maintenance charges for other timeshares were comparable to DVC?

Many thanks.

Disney fees are higher than many other timeshares.

As noted, DVC dues are very high. I own 7 other timeshare weeks and the fees are as follows.

• 2 Aruba studio in a 5* resort - $360 each
• Aruba 3 BR double lockoff (breaks down to 3 units) in a 5* resort - $910
• 3 Marriott summer HH weeks for around $730 each week.
• Mexico points resort equivilent to a 2 BR off season or a studio holiday season - $325.

The benefits to DVC are being on property and the flexibility of the system. To some the cost is worth it and to other it is not.

Thanks for your replies.

Dean, you are up early or it is up late!!!

Gill I note you are in the UK so not as early and it is a beautiful day here in London and I have a day off work so will make the most of it!!!

DVC maintenance fees are much higher. Consider this as an example; I own at Orange Lake, weeks 50 & 51. Week 50 is a three-bedroom unit usually the week before Xmas and week 51 is a two-bedroom unit that is usually Xmas week. My mainteance fees per week average about $625 (with the difference in fees between the units due to the difference in taxes). Most years, the three-bedroom is in the choice season for DVC (other years partially choice and partially adventure) with the two-bedroom in DVC's premier season (some years, like this year, it is in DVC's choice season). The information about when week 51, as an example, is in DVC's premier season may seem confusing but it sets the high level for DVC and the lower level for DVC as DVC season don't necessarily match exactly with the timeshare weeks on a consistent basis. I've included in the chart some of DVC's various seasons and the maintenance fees for the exact number of points needed for a similar stay (7 days) at DVC resorts OKW and SSR. In all situations, the maintenance fees at Orange Lake are less than what DVC's maintenance fees would be if you owned only the exact amount of points necessary for that week's stay. Orange Lake is in the Orlando area and the maintanence fees in that area are also considered higher than in most other areas of the country so a lot of timeshares have lower maintenance fees than does my units at Orange Lake.

I never did any research into other timeshares before we bought into DVC as I knew it was what I wanted, but was wondering if the maintenance charges for other timeshares were comparable [/QUOTE]

There's no material difference between DVC dues and those of our other two comparable Orlando time shares. We don't consider Aruba or Mexico "comparable"---been to both places, wouldn't go back

 

[mark&sue]

Thanks for all your replies. I am sure I will find the annual dues worth it and I am so very pleased to be part of DVC. The fees are almost worth it just to come on these boards while I am waiting to go on a vacation!!!

Dean, what time zone are you in and do you ever sleep?????
