Please list your exchanges with Trading Places

Thinking of using a week I usually give to RCI and depositing with TPI instead.

What concerns me is the resorts I see for Mexico and Caribbean are for the most part not high rated on TUG.
Even the resorts they manage don't have high numbers.

Are there resorts that you've exchanged into from a TPI trade that aren't on their exchange or hot lists.

Did anyone get a good one from their exchange directory list? Whatever examples you can give me will be helpful

Also most of their listing of availability are for 1 bedroom-have you been able to move up (for a fee) to a 2 bedroom or are they hard to get

If read alot of positive things both on here and over there but I did have these questions.

Many thanks

I have used several bonus weeks with TPI and 2 exchanges.

Lindo Mar (twice) one bedroom and two bedroom
FF Waikiki two bedroom
Ocho Cascadas two bedroom
Riviera Beach & Spa one bedroom
Casa de la Playa studio
Lagonita Lodge one bedroom

A couple/few of those hardly ever show up on-line. They purposely don't show everything and have come up with matches for me.

Although these aren't Marriotts, I haven't heard any complaints. A good solid "8" is perfectly fine with me as long as I get the location. People would have killed for that Villa at Ocho Cascadas as I have see pictures and videos of the unit I got for a good friend.
