Apparently, you found out the cost. Can you share that with us? Also, can you share what you found out about the buildings?[/ Just went on the presentation at Riviera Maya. The cost for a 3500 sq. ft. apartment was 399,999 for 4 wks. plus 4 VF weeks. They were offering to give me X amount of credit for my 2 bedroom Grand Mayan, but this was a one time deal that would never be offered to me again. Pressure with a capital P! The whole deal was absurd and they were quite ticked off at my refusal. The following week a friend was offered a "brand new, 2 day old offering" called the Grand Bliss. Bottom line was for about 12,000 more, taking their 2 BR unit, they are promised ocean view and the ability to reserve a year in advance. Oh, and their maint. is now about 1,000. Doesn't seem so great to me.[/Q]
The sales people at any Mayan lie through their teeth with a straight face. They promise you many things that can't possibly come true. Fot instance, ocean view. There are only so many ocean views and all can not be promised. You get lucky or not at the front desk of each resort. You may get the ground floor facing another building or a palm tree or a mountain view or a parking lot. I have been a time share owner with the Mayan since 1987 and have been on many presentations just to hear what new lies they come up with and they do come up with plenty.
