UDI vs. Wyndham Access Club

"CWA does NOT OWN ANY deeds (points) at Ocean Walk ... MUST BUY CWP to get ARP at for those events at Ocean Walk ...

Sorry, I just double checked with Wyndham Reservations, I can, in fact, use my CWA points for CWA ARP at Ocean Walk and it is indeed part of CWA.

Paco, I brought up the question about CWA and Ocean Walk in another thread that I can't find but I was assured by some of the experts that the book is wrong and there is no presence in that resort.

Indeed there is confusion. I looked on page 361 of Directory and only lists around 54 resorts vs web site around 80.

While one would expect web site to be most current info since Directory went to press several months ago, it is hard to believe some 26 resorts have been added.:rolleyes::ponder::shrug:

The moral of the story on this tangent, I guess, is do not accept the "experts" facts and get the facts yourself.

I wish I could find the thread but it boiled down to some owners of CWA knowing that they have no rights at Ocean Walk. I don't own CWA so I can't check and I will believe what they tell me at this point.

Hey Ron:

Could you call reservations and see if your CWA will get you a reservation 13 months from now?:cool:

They wont check, or more to the point cant see the availability unless I have some CWA points in the account to use.. I dont. Everything is in reservations or the points credit pool
 
It appears that the Members Directory was outdated before they printed and released it. The Online Learning Center list of CWA resorts has Ocean Walk listed. The printed list must be outdated by at least a year or two. Since there are several other resorts that are listed online but not in the directory it is clear to me that old data was used in the publication. I have in fact made ARP reservations at resorts using my CWA points that are listed online but not on the printed directory list.

Like Paco I'd like someone who owns CWA to see if a ressie is available at Ocean Walk.

My interest is that if I get into Wyndham I'm considering CWA to insulate me against individual resort MFs climbing too high too fast but I'd want Ocean Walk in there so I can get ARP there for the weeks I like to go to Daytona.

Without looking it up right now I think I remember that the MFs were pretty high.

This is all in the thinking stage right now. Because of all the great rental deals right now I'll be going that route for a while.

Thaks for the reply, you are one that I count on for excellent W advice.

I own CWA and I am able to book at Ocean Walk during the ARP window. I asked the VC to check on availability for something beyond 10 months and there were a number of units available... 1BR Deluxe, 2BR Deluxe, 2BR Lockoff, 3BR deluxe... depending upon timeframe, even 4BR Presidentials were showing up in the ARP window, so there seemed to be a fair amount of bookable inventory at OW with CWA. Unfortunately I didn't get the CWA points in time to make a bike week or Daytona 500 reservation this year... but probably will next year.

MF's are close to $6 at OW and $5.45 at CWA, iirc.

Thank you for taking the time to check, that settles the OW question.

Better get on those ressies for next year pronto.

I think you are right until at least until at least the Club Wyndham Pass runs its coarse. Renting is a great way to go until the transition is done.
