How many RCI points you would actually need for a week at a resort?I am thinking about buying points

There are a number of factors that affect the number of points needed:

1) The size of the unit.

2) The location.

3) The time of the year or season (high demand vs. low demand, etc.).

4) Sometimes even how far in advance you want to book. You might be able to get some last minute "specials".

If you buy points, make sure to check the maintenance fee-to-point ratio. Some units you buy (on the resale market, of course) may get you the same amount of points as another unit but would have higher maintenance fees.
