Re: I am interested in buying at San Luis Bay Inn / Avila Beach, Ca

[Q=linmcginn] We recently purchased a resale San Luis Bay Inn.There are two sections at SLBI, the Sunterra section which has newer but smaller 1 and 2 bedroom units and the original "Glen Ivy units which are larger one and two bedroom units. From what I understand the studio units now have full kitchens. Our unit is a one bedroom in the Sunterra section.We chose to opt out of SunOptions and go with PSE . This however was no easy task! We had a very good closing agent who was in constant contact with Sunterra and PSE and worked with them until this problem was solved.Today, we were finally able to make a 2008 reservation! We also belong to Interval and was told today when I called that if we deposit the week we will get an exchange week and an AC! Now for you question about the property . When we stayed there 2 years ago, we were not happy with the condition of our unit which was the imperial one bedroom. It really needed to be updated! By the next day however, we realized that it was all about location, location,location! SLBI definately has that going for it! Hope this helps![/Q] Thanks, who did you go through? I have been looking and the price ranges are all over the place. I am looking into a 1 bed 2bath or a 2bdrm. I was concerned because some of the reviews I read had the same concerns about the units needing refurbishing. The location is great. Are you happy with the overall package there? and thanks it helps.
