| - This is one of 3 Vegas properties and by far, this is the better one if you want to be closer to the Strip. As the other reviews said, nice pools, lazy river, nice sized rooms --- basically all the good stuff other reviewers have mentioned. If you're an owner, this is the place to stay in LV. For the most part, it's a nice place.
Now, why did I take off one star. As another reviewer mentioned, the hard sell!! OMG, people, we are owners, you do NOT need to tell us how to vacation, what's new, how to save credits, what do to about affiliate memberships (RCI, II), we're old hats at this. And, we know how to read!! We keep up with things. SO, why is it you feel that you need to bug us about going down to your cheapo breakfast for an hour for you to tell me what I already know. If I say no, I already know all that and I'm only here for a few days and no, I did not make any time in my schedule to listen to your presentation, please believe me, leave me the heck alone and just give me my parking tag. Oh yeah, that's right. The sales person is holding your parking tag. She took 20 minutes of my time and wouldn't say no until I said, check w/ me later when the rest of the family arrived.
Guess what, she called the room, later that afternoon to ask how many people were showing up to breakfast tomorrow. I said, the family hasn't arrived yet. She then called my cell later that evening to ask again. Good GOD!! When I got back to the room, I unplugged all the phones. I refuse to get a phone call at 8am the following day. We planned to party that night and crawling in at the crack of dawn.
TIP: when you come in to the resort, the guard takes down your plates, hands it to you to give to the front desk. So as far as I'm concerned, you already know whose car is parked in your parking lot. I don't need my hang tag. Next time, I skip the hang tag from the "resort host". Oh yes, to add, when you finally get out of the resort host's face, you get a little gift with toiletries. Whoopie!! I gave up 20 minutes in Vegas for that arguing with her. Also, if you show up for breakfast, you get $50 AMEX. She says, one less breakfast to cook. COOK? Heck, I'm in Vegas. I may have a kitchen but I'm sure as heck not cooking. I may have juice or some snackies but I left the cooking at home. And besides, $50 doesn't even cover a decent breakfast per person in Vegas and she thought it was one breakfast for the family. Did she think we were going to Dennys?
One last bit, in the afternoons, they make fresh popcorn by the lounge and some drink. We had lemonade. While nice and cold, as the day wore on, they must have been using the same lemons and sugar and just adding ice and water because it was getting more and more watered down. Good for hydration, I guess.
Last last bit - I promise. As an owner, I plan to write a letter to Wyndham or at least let my annoyance be known about the pushy sales tactic. If every owner complained about it, hopefully they'll tone it down for owners.
