Friend looking at Aruba Surf Club
A buddy called me over to today and mentioned that he was headed to Aruba and would be touring the Surf Club on his trip and was considering buying. I bought into Wyndham so I don't know anything about Marriott and its hard for me to offer any advice.
I asked if Aruba was a place he wanted to go on a semi regular basis and he rreplied that it wasn't. He was, very interested in the ability to trade for Marriott points every year, which I realize he wouldn't get by purchasing retail.
So I just had a couple of questions. One, does anyone know the differential between retail and resale at the Surf Club?
Does Marriott have an internal exchange or do you have to go through II? How much is the exchange fee?
If the Marriott points are that important and he was to buy from the developer, is it cheaper to buy at a different resort than Surf Club and still get the same amount of points?
