Re: Recent Mayan Palace Nuevo Vallarta purchase at resort ? Anybody have some good/bad things to say about Mayan Palaces ?? (by Orville F.):
We own 3 weeks with Mayan Palace, all three come with Vacation Fair options. Meaning, we can use a second week, or 6 total weeks, based on availability just by paying an extra maintenance fee. If we don't use them, we don't pay. We still have to pay for the first three weeks however, whether or not we use them. I really love the Mayan Palace, however I don't like the fact that we have to pay an additional maintenance fair every five years or five extra every 25 years. That being said, the resorts (I've only been to Nuevo and Riviera Maya) are beautiful, the service superb, and I just love these resorts. I know that alot of people complain because they felt like they were tricked or forced into buying from the salespeople and after figuring out the total cost of vacations over the next 25 years, well, I think they have buyers remorse and become angry. But for those that want the vacation and paid what they felt the vacations are worth, I think most of them are truly satisfied. The Mayan Palaces are like the Marriots of Mexico. And I don't think we'll have to worry about them going broke on us, or becoming dumpy. They are re-investing in the resorts and building new ones. Most the owners I've spoke with are really happy with their timeshare. I hope you you will be too.
