Regardless of how you get exposed to Westgate Resort’s fast-talking sales pitch, you will most likely regret it. We got sucked in by the low prices on Priceline to spend a 2-night stay at Westgate Vacation Villas. Our frugal mindset sucked us into a “presentation” in exchange for $75 cash and a free meal. Hours upon hours of what we now know were total lies about Westgate’s availability, benefits, and costs used to dupe people into signing a contract is what we endured. Reflecting on how the product is presented, it feels like they are talking about a pyramid scheme, implying that it will pay for itself, if not create revenue through rentals and referrals. They tell you to purchase their product and then “resell” it to friends and neighbors. Here is the truth, the all-in price, once you count the interest, fees, and loan payments thus far have been about $743 per night, for the exact same properties that Priceline had listed for about $50 per night. So, accepting that “gift” in exchange for a presentation, was a terrible idea. Employees at Westgate will claim they do not make commission & are not concerned with the price of the timeshare, that their passion is fostering an incredible deal: a unit of immense value at an amazing, affordable price. If they tell you that the timeshare will appreciate, creating the impression that it was a good investment; that owning a timeshare would make vacationing affordable; that you could rent your timeshare for a profit when not using it; that you could give your timeshare back to the developer, sell or transfer it to another party should you no longer want it. IT IS ALL A BIG LIE!
