Best II exchanges with DRI CLUB II Membership?

[winger Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close winger]

Please post what has been your best exchanges using you Club points in II.

Please post Resort, time to travel, and size of unit.

Being new to the Club, I am trying to figure out how good the Club "Corporate" II membership's trading power really is (or is not).

My question also includes exchanges with the old Sunterra Club (prior to the DRI buyout).

Hi Sue and Minnie, would it be possible for you to include the size of the units you received on each of your exchanges (good ones, by the way!!!) ? Maybe just edit your post versus adding a new post.

Dale, what monts in each year were your reservations? I want to get a sense the trading power of the Club's II acct, and knowing what time of year your reservation was for helps.
