Re: Marriott Vacation Club point system (by Denise L.):

I would buy points again. We own 2.5 weeks at the Grand Chateau and also a minimal 1,000 points. We are both self-employed so we can get away whenever we want. Plus we tend to take more short local trips rather than long & distant vacations. The fact that the Marriott timeshares can be used on Sun-Thurs for about 30% of the points that it would take for a weekend day (or 70% for a full week's day) really works for us.
