Re: Marriott Vacation Club point system (by Michael B.):

One other item. Virtually every Marriott Timeshare has work going on and usually when you want to go. You find pools closed , fitness centers closed , air conditioning shutoffs and water shutoffs. With a hotel you can readily change rooms if you have an inconvenience that you did not expect when you reserved. With a timeshare you have the inconvenience and never a break in your maintenance charges. We have never had an Aruba stay where something was not being worked on or when there was a necessity to visit the room for an air conditioning filter, water shut off, power shut off, temperature of air conditioning reduction, construction, construction and construction. We await the assessments for the construction.
