Ok, here's my story.. Been kind of looking out for Marriott Ko'Olina resales and been really wanting to own one at Ko'Olina. I figured it's somewhere we always go to (Oahu) and it's a very nice property that if there's ever one year we can't go, it might not be too hard to rent it out or exchange. But I just want to know what's the main difference between Marriott system vs Westin system. Reason I ask is as much as we go to Oahu, we almost always go to Maui after stopping by Oahu so it might not be a bad idea to purchase Westin Maui instead of Ko'Olina. I heard both are good properties but I just want to have an idea what's the diff between the 2 systems. I don't think I would want Marriott Maui Ocean because I don't want to pay any higher than my budget. We've stayed in Ko'Olina Beach Club a few times and we love it. I'm familiar with Westin in Maui too so I'm sure we'll love it as well. So any thoughts???
I'm pretty familiar on how TS works.. but I'm no expert when it comes to exchange, deposit in RCI etc, but I know I have more to learn. We have 2 kids, 13 and 8 so either of those 2 properties would be good for us. I'm still looking around and just waiting for that perfect deal, good price for us.
