Hello, we are long time timeshare users, but new to the Starwood system. Familiar with HGVC.
We want to book late Oct and Nov weeks at Westin Kierland. If we have enough Staroptions from any of the mandatory resorts, and plan to book 8 months out, would we have trouble getting late Oct or Nov weeks? (Note: not Thanksgiving week).
If so, it seems like we should look for the lowest cost Staroption points, regardless of resort. That is how HGVC works in practice - you can pretty much always get the resort you want if you plan ahead, so "points are points', and people look for resorts with low maint fees.
Thanks, Mark
