Re: Sunterra sold to Diamond Resorts LLC (by Maria L.):

This has been very interesting to read. We own both here at Ka'anapali and the Point at Poipu. We recently vacationed at Poipu and also experienced pressured sales personnel but more by the sales manager than by the rep. It was obvious that the sales reps were uncomfortable with all our questions and concerns with regards to converting points. We also were given the pitch that we would become "secondary" owners with regards to our requests. We felt like they were "discriminating" and they quickly changed their approach! We have one property in points (not in the trust) and kept two out. So far I am grateful that we kept our two ocean deluxe rooms out of the club. Will continue to monitor this situation.
