did you get a space bulk banked week there marti...

have not seen any rci exchanges into BC since november 2004 for april 2005 ( and they probably had more units come online since then...)

the units there are on RCI points so would not show up in RCI weeks now....???

even HGVC RCI arm can not see BC for the next ten months out...???

any other ways to see these bulk spaced units;????

Since this resort is very difficult to get into through internal Fairfield trading, I am not sure how much bulk spacebanking there might be. Be interesting to see if they do one though.

This is a beautiful resort. We recently stayed in unit 313 which had a beautiful view of Spaceship Earth and the fireworks. I laid on my bed with the curtains open staring at that ball for quite a while. Best view we have ever had and we have stayed onsite quite a bit. In addition to the view, the staff has been outstanding to us. We have only stayed there twice for only 1 night stays before checking into Disney's Old Key West. Each time we received personal notes from the manager and were treated wonderfully.

Hi! I agree that this is one beautiful resort. My husband and I attended a TS presentation there which is what sold us on the FF points system for our needs. Thanks to TUG and FF Yahoo we discovered resales!

Not sure about the difficulty you mentioned getting in via FF since I've not tried personally to get in. However, I've been looking for a while now hoping to stay 3-4 days in September and availability for a 2 bedroom has been very good for 2nd week. AND for a few weeks in Sept. it is Value season with a very good points/week price.

Here's hoping to get there sometime.

Mixed reviews by most travelers this seems to be one of those resorts that you either love or hate. When I look online there seems to be good availability almost any time of the year through Fairfield except for Christmas and News Year weeks where all the unit seem to fill up very quickly.

There's a 2 bedroom for rent on Tug BBS- $600 for this February 8-15. FF Bonnet Creek.

NONE.

I am guilty of not checking Orlando everyday as it isn't on my "I ever need to go there list" but I do know people love the area and try to check at least spring and summer twice a week.

I have NEVER seen FF Bonnett Creek on-line with RCI.

It would seem that Wyndham is content to use marketing channels other than RCI to drive sales tour traffic. This is true of many of thier resorts in active sales.

They (Wyndham) does a fair amount of it via the normal routine exchangers into their Orlando resorts, internal exchanges and others as well.

I hadn't thought of that---they can deposit SI and CP, and use those to drive tour traffic to BC.
