Marriott Silver Week - Trades into Orlando?

We will be joining II soon when everything goes through on our recent silver week purchase of a Marriott resort. We own DVC points, but Disney is the corporate member so we are excited about having an individual membership with II finally. That way our kids will have access to the II getaways for some extra trips. Our family has used the Getaways through my parents' membership in II, but it will be nice to have our own account.

What we want to do with the new silver week when we trade it is pretty much trade back into Orlando Marriotts for January, September, or May vacations. We might occasionally want to trade for an ocean vacation in Florida for the same months I listed. Anyone that has a silver Marriott week, how does your silver week trade for the Orlando Marriotts for the months I've listed?

I pull up Orlando all the time with my Silver Barony week.

Thanks, somerville.

We bought an EOY lockoff. So I'll be trading a one bedroom one year and then a studio the next year.

Can you see Disney's Vero Beach any with your silver Marriott? If I can't ever grab Disney's Vero with the silver week, I'll just book 5 nights at Vero with the DVC points we own. But it might be nice to get it for 7 nights with a trade - grin.

You shouldn't have any problem getting the times you're looking for with a silver week.....

I have pulled some of the DVC resorts. Usually offseason, especially September. I can't remember if Vero was one. Doing a quick search tonight, I see Disney's Boardwalk Villas, Old Key West and Saratoga Springs in September. The largest is a 1BR. With II, you can put in an ongoing search, so you probably have a fair chance of getting Vero Beach in off season.
