Re: GRAND MAYAN LUXX VILLAS (by Paul C.):
I have been an owner for several years. My experience is very different from ivanc above. As long as I apply as soon as possible for time at my home location I always 'got in' (four years) . I also never had trouble trading for another location if I applied as soon as possible. With regard to renting my units, the company made it clear from the beginning and put it in the written contract that they will not rent a member's timeshare weeks. Yes, it is hard to rent them on your own but so are most timeshares. With regard to receiving a real estate statement, most Grand Luxxe owners do not have a fee interest so , of course , they do not get a real estate statement. Most of us own a right to use for a 100 years but do not own the property. However,I have been told that very recently fee interests are being sold and I would think those owners have a deed. The problem at the Grand Luxxe in Nuevo Vallarta has been construction noise near some units and that has be frustrating for those unit occupiers. That should be near an end within twelve months and we need to recognize it has resulted in a more atractive and useable property. I do not see how working with the Registry Collection can get someone who purchased time or fee his/her money back. The Mexican Government of course has rules with which the Grand Luxxe management must comply. Our contracts also have arbitration provisions to use if we do not get satisfaction after complaining to management about any breach of the written contract.
