I attended an owners update today and heard some new things about Sheraton Flex that I have not seen discussed on this board. As usual take this with a grain of salt as it came from sales, but it was presented in writing. Sorry, I didn't get any pictures.
1) Effective 2017, Sheraton Flex Homeoptions will be able to be used to book Hyatt Residence Club properties now that VSE is part of ILG. Hyatt TS will not be a part of VSE but accessible with Flex HO. Westin resorts will not be able to do this. Only Flex.
2) New resorts will begin conversion or sales in 2017 in addition to the ongoing Nanea project. Most notable: St. Regis Residence Club in Aspen, CO, Westin Cabo. I didn't know St. Regis was part of this.
3) Sheraton Flex 67,100 and 81,000 points were being sold for approx $24,000 and $28,000 respectively.
4)Apparently 3-5 Star Elite is being "grandfathered" in and supposedly the 5 Star Elite requirement increased at some point in the past. It looks like Elite Sttaus will stay however could be subject to a higher requirement.
5)You will be able to deposit less than a week (of Flex Options) in II. Meaning you can exchange in increments of less than a week / a modification of the II "short stay exchange" program.
