HGVC - Myrtle Beach

Just stayed at the new HGVC MB property and posted a review on Tripadvisor (http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Re...an_Club_Spa-Myrtle_Beach_South_Carolina.html).

Did the sales-pitch and tour. Nice (little pressure) conversation. Was told it'll be a slow migration from the Anderson Club to HGVC, half of the units open and converted by mid-next year. Expect a very tight inventory with most availability going to owners.

Long story short... good looking property, decent location, spacious rooms, small pools, spotty service and generally needs HGVC touch. Not impressed enough to buy but it's nice to have another East coast HGVC property elsewhere beyond FL (and the impossible to get in to NYC).

Hmmmm. I wonder why a salesperson would say that?

Take everything a salesperson says with a grain of salt.

Forgot to mention, as far as rumors go... I was told that HGVC has invested in several European properties to be announced next year. Expect at least 5 new cities (London) and countries (Southern Europe).

Good timing ... just in time for the Euro to totally crash with the default of Italy .... and Greece ... and Portugal ... and Ireland ... and ....

Hilton bought out half of The Anderson, a condo building right on the beach. The units are lovely.

I heard it. But it was about their job offering.

Talked to a salesperson in passing yesterday while at a resort and it doesn't appear they have any more info than the HGVC press release. Add another insider guess that the normal point structure will be maintained for the property.
