We purchased our timeshare approximately 7 years ago when our girls were small. One of the best things about the resort, for us, was that driving IS aloud on the beach, BUT if you go just north of the Royal Floridian, you can NOT drive there. The kids could run around and we could sit back and relax. We were always within walking distance of the ...
I don't even know where to start. When I arrived there was no where to park, so we went ahead and parked in the garage(which if you drive anything bigger than a small sedan don't bother). When we went in there were about 40 or 50 people standing around...they won't give any room keys until 4pm. so once 4 o'clock hit everyone rushed ...

Can't wait to go!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/30/09
We bought a bi-annaul studio share in 2002 for the Pepsi400 week and have not been able to use it yet so I'm not sure of the room condition. We enjoy using the facility (right on the beach) accassionally on the weekend. We've been able to rent our time once for a little more than the annual fees. We're not race fans but enjoy the ...

Don't Buy, They Lie To You
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/26/09
We bought the time share in 2008 and they will tell you a pack of lies to get you to buy. Our seller said that if we wanted to sell they would buy it back. WHAT A LIE ! I am very disappionted with the company. They will rent it for you if you don't use it and pay comes right to you. I would not ever buy a share with this company at all, in ...

By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/12/09
i loved my stay it was clean had friendly service and i loved the view it was pitch dark when i arrived due to it being a rare turtle season and all lights were limited or turned off but watching that sun rise from my balcony gave me the best view of the open water, and yes the time shares do take a year to book but its worth it and it just goes to show everyone is booking for the same floridian expiriance i had...

We bought at the RF in 2004 and we want to sell our property (it is listed on Condotrader.com). This timeshare is a WEEKS usage, and our other one is a POINTS that we like better. We love the timeshare option. Its a great location to the beach.

DONT BUY!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/26/08
I bought this place over 10yrs ago. We bought it b/c we were told we could get rooms for $50 a night whenever we wanted, on top of the week that you normally get. They will only let you book your night EXACTLY 2 WEEKS before, no sooner, and no later, which was not in the contract that we had signed. So if we tried to book a family trip a few months ...

Awful RCI Resort
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/19/08
This resort is not as advertised. The location is good and that's about it. The rooms are small, outdated, not clean and not well appointed. The amenities such as pool and exercise room are a joke, outdated, in need of repair. The tiki bar is small, hardly open and closes too early. There is no restaurant on site. The elevators are slow ...
