I’m an owner at Brandon Woods and love it. I’ve stayed in Orlando Town Center before.
thanks for the tour ill be visiting next month !
Awesome. Have a great trip!
July 25 ,28 here I come
Awsome. Have a great trip!
I like the that it has a few places to dine as I like to stay on property. I'll have to see the reviews for the restaurant. Good review.
Unfortunately we didn't go to any of the on side restaurants. We did look at the menus and they do of course have what we call "resort style pricing". Meaning much more expensive when compared to similar restaurants not at the resort. There is also a lot of restaurants just a short drive away on 192. Thanks for watching!
The golf carts are used during the timeshare presentation to tour the property
Thanks. I wasn't even thinking about that. I thought maybe they used them to take people and bags to their rooms after they checked in if they didn't have a car. That makes sense now. Thanks for watching!
Good video, helpful information. Can we get a room tour?
I will have room tours coming up from the rooms we stayed in. Westgate Town Center is located with Westgate Vacation Villas. We didn't stay in a room at Town Center but will have a room tour of the one we stayed in at Vacation Villas. I am sure we will be back to Town Center some day and will post a video of that room if/when we go back.
The grounds do not look as well kept as Marriott properties. So glad we purchased at Marriott. I'm sure rooms are much nicer at Marriott. How did you like your stay? What did you think of rooms, Amenities, activities??
I would agree about your assessment of the grounds. There were several things we noticed about the grounds and exterior amenities that were not up to Marriott standards. The rooms were large and, at least the one we had, was recently renovated and quite nice. Overall the furnishings weren't at the same level as Marriott but we found the living room furniture to actually be more comfortable. Marriott sofas are not comfortable to sit on. There are also some issues with workmanship of the renovations. The resorts certainly have a different feel to them but we couldn't beat the price. Less than $300 all in for a week long stay in a two bedroom. Marriott getaway pricing in Orlando has gone up a lot the last couple years. We see ourselves willing to go back to the Westgate properties because they seem to be much cheaper.
I do have a video recorded and am editing talking about my thoughts on these properties and how they compare to what we are more used to with Marriott, Sheraton and Westin resorts.
@@DestinationTimeshare $300 for a week is a great deal. Did you have to attend a presentation to get that price?
@@DestinationTimesharethis is very true. This time last year I was able to get a 2 bedroom lock off at grande Vista for less than 600 for the week. Now it's running over 900 or more.
Sheraton Vistana Resort remains my favorite though. You can't beat the proximity to Disney
No presentation required. It was a special promotion that II was running called Platinum Escapes. You need to be II platinum to get that price but they offer these types of deals a couple times a year. Overall though, the price of Westgate getaways on II is quite cheap.
@@DestinationTimeshare I need to look more into Interval International. I am a DVC member and so I have II Gold. My brother would love to take my niece and nephews down to Florida but I don't have enough DVC points to give them, so booking them here as a Getaway may be a good option for them to save a ton of money but still have decent accommodations - without costing me any points.
I’m going next month is the pools over crowded or anything you can think of that is packed with people that may have mad you feel inconvenienced?
Sorry. I deleted my previous reply as I had the wrong resort. The pools can get quite crowded. Not sure it will fee inconvenienced but there will be a lot of other people. They do have some quieter pools around the resort in the Vacation Villas section.
Wow that place is huge. Ridiculous that they charge $25 for the water area. What other upcharges do they have? Sheesh.
All of their activities have some type of fee, but that is kind of the norm with many other resorts. We didn't partake in any other activities so I am not sure what all they charge for but I believe there is a fee for mini golf, swan boats and perhaps also to check out equipment. Though I am not 100% sure. Thanks for watching.
I am a interval owner. Am I charged the resort fee? I wouldn't mind staying here and paying the water park fee but not the resort fee.
I will have a future video about this, as we always heard there are resort fees, fees for wifi and many other fees. We booked in through Interval International (Getaway) and paid no fees during our stay. From what I understand, resort fees only apply to hotel based stays. Meaning you booked direct through Westgate on a nightly based rate.
@@DestinationTimesharethank you this is very helpful. I look forward to your video.
@@DestinationTimeshare Thanks - I was wondering about the resort fee as well.
they allow you check in early.
We actually stayed at Vacation Villas and didn't really arrive early.
@@DestinationTimeshare some hotels allow get you room early like 1 pm . i’m flying in early morning then universal for meetup in aug. i take like naps before heading to universal studios.
@@richardsantiago429 It may depend on what they have available that has been cleaned. If they have something they will let you check in. This has been our experience at all the timeshares we go to.
Craftsmanship is questionable must look closely to see slot of imperfection on the property
I would agree. We noticed this in our rooms too. It certainly isn't up to the level of the higher end resorts, but for the price we paid, it was hard to beat for a seven night stay in a two bedroom.
@@DestinationTimeshare too much sales pressure for a poorly made resort. Making you wonder when the maintenance fees will increase
Took the tour, worst timeshare ever experience
Timeshare had a cult atmosphere
Yeah, we had to take in the timeshare presentation experience at Westgate. I will have a future video all about that. We also made comments about the cult like atmosphere. Photos on the wall of the former CEO. The I Heart Westgate sign. Photos in the sales gallery of David with different celebrities. It was very interesting. Thanks for watching!
