Does anyone own Sheraton Desert Oasis [RCI TPU?]

I want to know what rating the SDO pulls through RCI. We have always used our unit, but I am considering trading it. I have floating week so what week would be best to bank for 2012? Thanks

Starwood does not allow you to choose the week that is deposited. You must use the average TPU preassigned by [RCI.]

Unless you are trying to trade for DVC, it has more trading power in [II.]

I do want to trade my SDO for DVC- any idea how many TPU's it gets? And what the lowest TPU's a DVC property needs? Thanks!

Funny you should ask that, I was wondering something similar.

Another question along those same lines: does anyone know the difference between an SDO gold plus and platinum week in RCI (TPU-wise)?

Denise, did you mean preassigned by RCI or does II use a preassigned average also?

a 1 bedroom sdo gold plus (float 1-52) gets only 19 tpu. DVC needs 25 tpu. If you have 2 bedroom sdo, you can deposit 2 1-bedroom for 38 tpu. when I was able to deposit my chosen spring training week, a 1 bedroom sdo got me 39 tpu last yr.

Is there any rule of thumb as to how many more (if any) TPU an SDO Platinum week would get, 1BR and 2BR, over a Gold Plus week?

Ooppss - typo! Corrected it (should have been RCI.)

I wonder if someone could deposit a platinum week and find out (or maybe even just call and find out). I deposited a the entire unit of my 2 br Annual 1-52 float and got 19 per side (38 total, which I understand is standard, guaranteed TPU for any 1-52 week).

I was able to get a week 2 br in Daytona, a 3 br week in Malaga Spain, and still have 8 TPU left.

But, alas, I want to know what Platinum 1-21 & 51-52 is worth with all this talking up of Platinum ownership.

I am waiting to get two true plat two bedrooms in my name soon... I'd like to know too!

Did anyone ever find out how well true platinum SDO trades with RCI?

I called Starwood and they told me its 25 per bedroom. Subject to change.
