Sunterra Sun Options have more value and are much more flexible. A week at a Sunterra Resort in prime time any time full week is only 5,500 - 6,000 points. You get your exchange more readily with II (not through RCI - we always had bad luck with RCI and switched to II - they are more quality Resorts. No exchange fee through Sunterra and your free II Membership gives you the same choice to swap a week or a few days at a minimal amount of points. You always have too many points to use. It is the greatest way to go economically more sound for your money to stay in First Class Resorts$ You pay for what you get!

I am new at this stuff - what is "II" and how do I find out more about this? Thanks. Deb :)

II is Interval International - a Smaller Elite Exchange Club. RCI is a Cendant Corp. and very, very large - you get lost in their shuffle. We put in for 2 years to Big Sky MT and when we arrived there and rented through Hotels.com, guess who owned the unit we were booked in? Right, RCI - they stockpile them and then rent them and don't always use our swap for exchange, rather rent them out for profit!
