Club La Pension - New Orleans

[BocaBum99]

Anyone been to this resort? Bluegreen just bought them out. I am wondering what people think. Is it in a good location? Does it need a lot of renovation?

I was there Oct of 06 last. Very nice resort inside the French Quarter. I will try to vist it again this Oct when I am at the Quarterhouse.

That's awesome. I've been reading some of the reviews of the resort. People are saying it's a great location. I am stoked about that. It's a Silver Crown today. But, when Bluegreen gets done with it, they will make it a Gold Crown. With that location, it will be HOT, HOT, HOT.

Bluegreen is doing a good job at picking locations (with the exception of Club 36 in Las Vegas).

Patrick Henry Inn is right in historic Wiliamsburg. Fantasea is right on the Atlantic City Boardwalk. And, Club La Pension is right at the edge of the French Quarter.

Can't wait!

I'll be in Florida in late September. That will be possible. I need to see when Bluegreen will start offering reservations.

Yes, go ahead and post your questions in the Bluegreen Forum. You will get as much help as you want and need there.

I own there, and I like it a lot. The rooms are comfortable and the location is probably the best of all the timeshares in the French Quarter. There are some problems with trash trucks making noise some nights. But the management has done what it can by putting in double pane windows to block out the noise.

Christen, the manager, is great, and the whole staff is very accommodating. There are also free washers and dryers after 5 pm for guests. They are the same washers and dryers that the staff uses during the day to wash the linens. I hope that Bluegreen keeps the management, staff and the washer dryer arrangement.

I often see availability in RCI for this resort. I wonder if its availability will be reduced, remain the same or increase with Bluegreen's affiliation.

Yes I liked Club La pension's location as well. Have not been inside yet.
One quick question for these New Orleans experts: is it true that parking on weekend is free in French Quarter? If so, exactly when is the free period?
