**Consumer Warning about Westgate Resorts** Our daughter was graduating from basic training and going to Fort Eustis, Virginia for further schooling. We were searching for an affordable room to stay and found Westgate Resort in Williamsburg. They were offering a room for $100 per night. When we arrived at the resort, we were told the $100 price was only for guests who signed up for a 90-minute sales seminar. Otherwise, the price was over $300. Just a deceptive marketing ploy to force people to attend a high-pressure timeshare sales event. 90 minutes turned out to be over 7 hours! They promised us no more than 90 minutes but blocked us from leaving. We tried to call our daughter, but the salesman told us she would have to sit through the meeting if she arrives. We were tired and hungry, yet they continued to pressure us and keep us there until we signed a contract. We told all the sales staff we were not interested in purchasing a timeshare and we were forced to attend to get the $100 room price discount. After several price drops and 7 hours off constant pressure, we finally folded and purchased. Only after they offered us Disney vacations and made us believe we were buying property. We later learned this was not true. They were completely dishonest with us. Westgate is just an OVERPRICED HOTEL! We are now stuck with monthly payments and annual maintenance fees for a worthless hotel room we don’t need. Westgate doesn’t care about military families and profit by selling predatory timeshare contracts.
