List your GREAT Timeshare exchanges here. [2009 and forward]

II Trade

I traded a two bedroom Marriott Cypress Harbour week March 13-20th for a two bedroom Marriott Aruba Surf September 18th-25th. This is my very first trade as I just closed on the Marriott in November so I was happy with the trade. I tried for two hours to find a two bedroom unit at that time. Finally got it at 2 a.m. I guess persistance pays off. I originally saw the unit earlier in the evening and I checked flights first and by the time I went back it was gone. I guess I learned if you want something don't procrastinate

II trade

Our trade window was very narrow as we wanted to add a second week (#11) to the week we had already (#12) in the same resort (MM1) and we got it within a day so we were very pleased. We don't have to find a rental now as we hardly ever deposit a week so cannot exchange.

Wow, impressive!

I traded a Oct studio week at Whistler for a April week at a 2bd in Newport Coast (SoCal)

I can't comment on many of the others because I wouldn't know whether they were impressive or not. But I know you did well!

Congratulations!

I traded a Oct studio week at Whistler for a April week at a 2bd in Newport Coast (SoCal)

I traded a 1 Bedroom May week at this same Whistler resort - the lowest demand week in Whistler according to II's index - for a 2 Bedroom week 24 at the Royal Haciendas. Request only took about a week to be confirmed.

I called the Marriott Interval Desk and when I couldn't get the dates I wanted he broadened the search and offered me the 3 bdrm.

Hyatt for Marriott's Ko'Olina

Traded 430 Hyatt vacation club points for 1 week in a studio Marriott's Ko'Olina March 6-13.

For those of you unfamiliar with the Hyatt system, 430 points is about 22% of the 1880 points we are allotted each year for our late May/early June 2BR week at Hyatt High Sierra in Tahoe.

We were already planning a vacation driving up the California coast that week. But then we saw the Ko'Olina week and managed to snag a pair of FF tickets and a 9-day car rental for $200 and 2 nights SPG reward stay at the Westin Moana Surfrider in Waikiki. So Oahu it is!

II: Easter week at Marriott's Legend Edge

In late Sept, I placed an ongoing request for a 2bd during Easter Week, 2010.

Just confirmed into MLE, Panama City, FL, 4/4-4/11, using our 2009 summer Harbor Ridge unit.

Wasn't expecting to match anything at this late date, so this is a pleasant surprise.

San Luis Bay Inn

We exchange primarily thru II using Diamond points. We just got back from a trade thru "The Club". Spent a wonderful week in a 2BR Loft unit overlooking the Pacific at Otter Crest, Oregon.

Next up (II trades): Highlands Inn, Carmel, CA and Marriott's Newport Coast Villas in Newport, CA.

Hi Minnie,
We see that you own at San Luis Bay Inn. We share your excellent taste as we have been very fortunate to trade for the Christmas Holidays for the last three years at San Luis Bay Inn through II. Our dream is to own at San Luis Bay Inn during that time.

Wishing you many more years of successful time sharing.

 

[ada903]

Traded fixed week 28 at Sheraton Vistana Resorts, two bedroom townhouse, for a two bedroom two bath at Westin Kaanapali Ocean Resort Villas, August 29 - Sept. 5 2010. I did not have a request, I saw the unit available in the exchange system and grabbed it.

 

[mwwich]

Traded one bedroom Marriott Canyon Villa's gold for two bedroom Ocean Pointe for this November, which I believe is also gold.

 

[Bxian]

We just traded a portion of our May 1-May 8 2010 2 B/R week at the Charter Club of Marco Island for 3 nights in a 1 B/R at the Hilton Craigendarroch in Scotland in early September 2010. We are combining the 3 Hilton Craigendarroch nights with a 2 night stay at the Caledonian Hilton in Edinburgh, Scotland, 1 night at the Hilton Colyumbridge Hotel in Aviemore, Scotland and 1 night at the Hilton hotel in Glasgow, Scotland. All of the hotel nights are free using Hilton Honors reward certificates.

We also are keeping 4 nights in a 2 B/r using what is left of our original May week at the Charter Club and will add 2 free hotel nights (one at the airport o our way in and one at the Hilton Naples) to extend our time in Florida by a couple of days.

Finally, we are spending 3 nights at the Doubletree Key West at the end of Feb. after I attend a work conference (free nights at the Doubletree also free using Hilton reward certificates.) Hilton is devaluing the Hilton Honors points after 1/14/10, so if you see any reward stay plans in your future, now is the time to make them!

RCI Exchange

I have a 2bedroom gold week at HGVC Flamingo. I traded into a studio at the Manhattan Club in June for a little less than 1/2 the points for for my HGVC week. Did it via an ongoing search put in a while ago. The trade came through after a couple of months and that was probably about 6-8 months ago. I am so excited as I have never been to New York.

I hope you have a great time - it's a place unlike anywhere else. And what a nice time of year to go - we were there in November and it was COLD!!

Congrats.

Grand Desert for Dreams Puerto Aventuras

Hi! Just exchanged a Wyndham Grand Desert (Las Vegas) generic red studio week for a studio at Dreams Puerto Aventuras in Playa del Carmen Mexico 5/29-6/5. I know it's pretty easy to get a Mexico trade, but this is one of only 4 resorts in the area that accept 3 year olds at their kids club, and it's newly renovated and beautiful, so I'm very pleased! Now onto the planning phase...
