Re: What Marriott timeshares have you stayed at...and which are your favorites?

Marriott DSV 1
Marriott Cypress Harbour
Marriott Ocean Pointe
Marrriott Sabal Palms

I'm going more off of the quaity of the resort and units----(otherwise, the ocean beight RIGHT there would push Ocean Pointe upward).

Now, I am NOT a Marriott owner---can others who have formed their list of multiple Marriott's visited say the same?

Fun thread!

1. Waiohai
2. Maui Ocean Club
3. Desert Springs Villas I
4. Summit Watch
5. Desert Springs Villas II
6. Newport Coast Villas
7. Beach Place Towers
8. Kauai Beach Club
Two new ones we are eager to rate: Canyon Villas next week and St. Thomas next year.

Marriott Hotels with reward points:

1. Renaissance, Wailea
2. JW Ko Olina
3. Wardman Park, DC (Great hotel! We were even given a jr. suite on the concierge level floor for our Cat. 5 redemption certificate.:clap: )
4. JW Desert Springs (This is where it all started in May of 1999!:whoopie: )

We have also had great trades at non-Marriott timeshares, but that is another post...

Re: What Marriott timeshares have you stayed at...and which are your favorites?

Only two people rated Canyon Villas (my home resort). Hope this is because it's still relatively new and not many people have been there. I haven't been to too many Marriott timeshares. The one I truly enjoyed is Marriott Marbella. Canyon Villas is pretty nice but since we don't golf, I feel there is not much to do in that area.

I think our favorite unit would be the 3 bedroom unit we own at GC. For location it would be Ocean Pointe.

Re: What Marriott timeshares have you stayed at...and which are your favorites?

1. Marriott’s Ko Olina Beach Club :whoopie:
2. Marriott’s Marbella Beach Resort
3. Marriott’s Phuket Beach Club
4. Marriott’s Aruba Ocean Club
5. Marriott's Village d'Ile-de-France

As for resorts, Ko Olina is the best but Marbella is a more interesting place to visit.

Re: What Marriott timeshares have you stayed at...and which are your favorites?

I think that it is fair to say that just because a particular location might be say 8th on your list, doesn't mean you were dissatisfied with your visit there.

It would be interesting to see people rate there first pick as well as their last pick, so that we could see the truer difference between all picks.

Just an idea!

Marriott Manor Club - 3 weeks platinum, 2 weeks at Marriott Beachplace Towers, and 1 week at Marriott Canyon Villas
Re: What Marriott timeshares have you stayed at...and which are your favorites?

Manor Club has been picked in 9 of the above posts which pleases me as I own 3 weeks there and think it's tops of the heap in quality. So that makes 10 of 40 posts ... not bad for a $600 a year timeshare, which is actually free if you use the 6 free rounds of golf.

These choices are sometimes difficult as quite often the timeshare isn't the best but the location is .. such as BeachPlace, which I would rate for location and winter weather but not quality.
