Re: Can't even give them one star (by K T.):

I wonder as I have read these kinds of posts over the years if any kind of deal with Club Land'or, Land'or International or the owners was made? Are you paying the full amount of all fees as others have? Do you get any kind of a reduction or exclusion in fees at all? For example, if you have 2 or more weeks do you pay fees as 2 weeks or just one week? Are you being compensated or rewarded in any way for making your posts? Have you removed /deleted any of your prior comments on this blog? .Now I understand these are personal questions and you might not want to answer or you might say you are being picked. The motive behind why you are posting is not clear so I am looking for clarity-no the issues presented. For me the marketing of their product was very different than the final product I was given in person. Why am I posting on this I will give an examples : regarding lawyers - not all charge by the hour. Some have a flat fee for a specific service. For those reading this, think back; at the time of signing, were you under the impression you where buying an undeeded timeshare and or this product was marketed to you as a time share? Likely nowhere in your contract is the word "timeshare"? HMMMMMMM, now put on your thinking caps. reread the information on this blog and decide for your self what kind of action or inaction you want to make. Do your homework and you can likely find an answer that will work for you.

I would like to offer to clear up some definitions/semantics that are used in this forum. I see certain words and descriptions used interchangeably here and on other timeshare and review sites and thought it was worth a mention:

VIRGINIA CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT: So many want to start or join a class action suit against Club Land'or. Virginia has a prohibition on class action suits in state court. Class actions suits are permitted in Virginia’s federal courts but I have no knowledge of what kind of case a group would have to have in order to qualify to file in federal court.

LAWYER: If you hire a lawyer on your own be prepared for high fees and a long drawn out process. There are retainers and every time you speak or meet with a lawyer you pay an hourly rate. The courts are overwhelmed with Land'or cases on both sides and some lawyers will take advantage of you.

TIMESHARE: Club Land'or is not a timeshare. With a timeshare you have a deed. You buy a week or more and 'own forever'. In a calendar year you can only use/trade the number of weeks you own. It is your property and you can sell it on your own without paying the resort company for processing/transfer..

RIGHT TO USE CONTRACT: Club Land'or is a 'right to use' lease agreement much like renting an apartment. You lease by contract a finite number of weeks and can use/trade multiple weeks in a calendar year unless the resort has a disclosed contractual limit. Keep in mind that offshore there are limits to the amount of time you can spend in a country without a visa. You have no deed and the unit does not belong to you. If you sell it you have to pay the resort owner a large fee to process and transfer.
