Re: Renting - Marriott Marbella Beach Resort ? (by Carole W.):

We own 2 gold weeks at the Marriott Marbella (which we will be selling after July as we have renters there until July 8). We have owned the weeks since 2007 and have been able to rent them out every year either thru local agencies in Marbella or here on Redweek.

The desired rental dates are difficult to get. You have to call exactly -- and I mean exactly to the 30 seconds -- on the date that inventory is released if you want to get good, rentable dates (at or near the end of June). Calling the US Marriott line wastes too much time with recorded messages. Best to call the European office in Ireland, they answer directly but even if you call exactly @ 2pm in Ireland, hundreds of others also call in so you will be in a queue. I keep a calendar to know on what date I need to call and I sit and wait for the minute it opens!
