Re: Marriott Vacation Club point system (by Brion S.):

Actually, Hawaii if you bought the correct units is way low, however, if you went in for the off season or cheaper units then yes they are more expensive.. At least maintenance for Legacy.. BTW Michael my $7.00 per point is NEW purchases Not when I or you cot in at as I could say that I am way less than anyone because I inherited most of them.. But I did purchase myself at LV and yes my total purchase pricing was below $7.00 per point bought New as a Week and then enrolled. Oh and BTW you are paying government Daily fees on the Hotel rooms they just lump them into the price in many cases as people hate fees.. and as well with the Timeshare you only get hit with daily fees if you go to places that require them such as Hawaii's Transient Tax. And... additionally I think I would consider myself lucky if I didn't have the timeshare to guarantee me a great room at a low price and could get a 1BR unit in a place I wanted to go for $200.00 per night. But basically it is the earlier you got in the better your deal.. Problem that is true now as well but it takes Much longer to recoup as it is WAY expensive.. Our Hawaii 2BR KoOlina Penthouse Oceanview would point out to require something like 6700 points for a stay meaning it is upwards of 85-90K if I were to buy the equivalency in points.. OUCH...
