Which Hilton Timeshare should we go to for 4 days?

[Floridacrazy001]

We have our yearly summer vacation booked for July. We were supposed to be at Bonnet Creek for 3 weeks from 7/7 to 7/28 in a 2-bedroom. Somehow our reservation got screwed up and they have us in a 2-bedroom leaving on the 27th instead of the 28th. The owner I booked through has been trying to fix it, but there's nothing coming up for the last day - not even a 1-bedroom.

Since he's an owner at Hilton, he can get us a 2-bedroom at Hilton at SeaWorld, Parc Soleil or Tuscany Village for 4 days - from 7/24 - 7/28. Which one should we choose? Which one is more convenient to restaurants, etc. We don't care about the parks so much because we will be visiting the parks while we're staying at Bonnet Creek. Which Hilton has bigger and nicer pools - or should I say a slide or lazy river? The kids want a pool with a slide.

I was also looking into booking a one-night stay at the Wyndham Hotel in Bonnet Creek so it won't be that big a move, but it will cost - even with the government rate $150 a night - which doesn't include their resort fee. No one in my family drives so we can't rent a car. I used the Mears cab estimator and from Bonnet Creek to the Hilton is about $24 - so it would cost me $60 to make the move. There are 2 adults and 2 kids and we usually have 4 suitcases and whatever food that's left.

What would you do?

would go with the Hilton at Seaworld - now it is close to Seaworld and discovery cove - so might save some money for them.

not sure about the other hilton's - since I have only stayed at SW.

it does have a slide

If you don't have a car, stay at the HVC SeaWorld. I like the HVC Parc Soleil better, but I'd say you absolutely have to have a car there (unless you planned to never leave the resort).

One advantage for HGVC I-Drive is that it has direct access to Premium Outlets Vineland (private gate) and is right across the street from a Walgreens with Publix next door; so shopping would be very easy without a car. It is also a bit closer to WBC than SeaWorld. Really large pool area, with waterfall and fountain, but no lazy river (and I don't think a slide) for the kiddos. A half dozen restaurants of various levels (Benihana, Dick's Last Resort) are walkable, a lot more within a short cab ride.

I-Drive trolley terminus is across the street as well, so that opens up some options for travelling North up I-Drive.

Stay where you are, tell the owner to pay for the last night for you because of the mistake. or ask for the owner to pay for transportation to the other place because of the mistake.

Thanks for all the advice. We decided on the HGVC SeaWorld. The owner I rented from has been great. He's been checking and there isn't anything available in a 2-bedroom or even a 1-bedroom for the last day. We would make due with a 1-bedroom, but's there's nothing. He offered to pay for my cab to change locations.
