Lifestyle Crown Villas and RCI (by R P.):

I put a hold on a 3 bedroom ville for Spring Break. I then contacted RCI to find out the All-Inclusive cost. They told me it at first was $799 for the week and upon calling again $799 per day. I had a friend go who just paid $900 for the week through an owner. Why as housing is already paid( through an exchange), am I paying $5600 for a week when through an owner it is $900? I am not sure what benefit is left to being a part of the RCI community.

Is the resort mandatory all-inclusive or can you choose not to be included? I would make sure of this before I chose that resort .... your friend may get a surprise if he arrives and it's a mandatory all-inclusive resort.
