Orlando Timeshare...
Sheraton Vistana Villas or Hilton Grand Vacations Club at Seaworld? Both are offering similar rooms and trade rates - Hilton Grand has a free Seaworld shuttle. Anyone have any experience with either?
TIA :)

Re: Orlando Timeshare...
My biggest peeve with Vistana was that there was not enough parking. They allow multiple cars per unit, but don't have a guest parking area for the additional cars.
Every night we had to carry our sleeping nieces and nephew quite a distance.

Re: Orlando Timeshare...
The resort itself is nice, new construction, great pools. BBQ grills around the area. It's also centrally located - pretty much 10-15 minutes from any of the parks or restaurants. There is a huge Publix supermarket about 5 minutes down the road.
I bought a timeshare there, but very fortunately last year was able to sell it back to Starwood and purchase in St. John, which is better for DH and me since we don't have children.
St. John is also a place where we can go every year and never tire of it.
Word of advice - they sell hard there and make promises that they cannot keep, at least the sales manager that sold us.
If you are interested in buying a timeshare there, check out Redweek.com first to compare prices.
eta : if you do go to the timeshare "meeting", it takes longer than an hour and both you and DH have to attend to get the cash back for use for discounted park tickets. You have to figure out if that is worth your time or not.

Vistana is wonderful. They have a shuttle as well but its not that frequent.
