Wow...we have been invited back for another presentation!!!!. This time 5 days and 4 nights in Orlando. We thought for sure they would never want to see or hear from us again. We just have to wait one full year. Does anyone know what happens if we buy a resale in the meantime? Can we still take advantage of the latest vacation package they offered? How does that work?

I don't see a problem because there should be nothing in writing which you sign stating "....". In fact, you can tell them that you purchased resale and will purchase from them if they can match the resale price of $xxx.

I have my "owners sales presentation" in NYC next week. Got the $250 for 2 nights in NYC offer via a telephone call so we are going to see what the experience of the up-sell is like. Thanks for the detailed description.

Are they providing a room for you in one of their timeshare units or in a Hilton branded hotel?

Best regards.

Looking forward to hearing your presentation report on what's new.

Our NYC bounceback was at W57 and we had the option of HCNY. We opted for W57 because they allowed us to use the lounge because we are owners (although they said "not guaranteed.") We also stayed at Hyatt Res Club at Kaanapali on a promo stay which was very nice. I wouldn't mind that stay again.

I've noticed travel bloggers write about discounted stay offers and they are usually giddy about staying at a hotel. Not as good a deal because we find the timeshares nicer. But perhaps the developers know that the most likely person to buy another timeshare is someone who is already owns a TS.

We've done 2 bouncebacks through our stays at W. 57th. The first time, I booked fairly close to our desired stay, so W. 57th had no availability. We opted for the Hilton Midtown (over Residences or HCNY) as we could use the Executive Lounge (not very good at all). Second stay (earlier this month) was at W. 57th, also with lounge access.

Cheers.

They told me we are to be assigned a one bedroom in the Parc Soleil and that is where the presentation takes place. But that is a year from now. Hilton's rule is not to permit a return for at least one year at the same presentation site.
