Need some feedback please....

This is a bit long so please bear with me.......DH is going to Daytona Bike week but using an exchange into an Orlando timeshare as his home base. I am tagging along for a couple of days ,starting off at Saratoga Springs using some of our points then switching over to an II timeshare.Anyone who can give us some opinions on our most likely available resorts, we would very much appreciate this. On the list will probably be, Marriotts Grand Vista (we would only be able to get a studio here, but size is not that important, just the 2 of us then just DH for the rest of the time),Wyndham Palms,Westgate Lakes,Star Island.Quality of the resort and rooms, location (ease of travel for DH onto the highways), and food available would be some of our concerns. Thanks in advance everyone!!!

Sheraton's Vistana Resort (yes it has joined II and I am seeing alot of it)
Marriott's Grande Visa
Marriott's Cypress Harbour
horizons by Marriott
Marriott's Imperial Palms
Marriott's Sabal Palms - although I have heard this resort is not as nice as it once was.

you may also get luck and get a DVC resort.... so definitely add all the DVC resorts to your list.

I recently got SSR using my Landmark at PCB - I couldn't believe it!!!

you can generally do better if you do the Search yourself - except hurt feeling - unless like DVC resorts you aren't really a member of II.

if it is a corporate membership like II - you have to take their word for it - it was the best they could do.

Thank you spiceycat for your reply. I don't think I was very clear in my post, I am doing the search on II's website and the resorts I listed is a partial list of what is available but the ones that appealed to us the most. We are exchanging an efficiency from a green week at a not so great resort so are just happy to be able to exchange at all.My DH sells timeshare and was given this week so whatever we can do with it is a bonus for us. We own at BWV's but he is kindly letting me keep most of our points for other trips since I am the WDW nut. Our checkin date is 60 days from midnight tonight so our dates will become available then and I want to be ready to choose one.
