Re: UTILITY CHARGES AND MAID SERVICE- (by Darquise L.):

Hi everyone,

Just came back last week it was wonderful and we had NO EXTRA CHARGES!

We had traded one of our fixed week unit at Sheraton Vistana in Orlando(not points) for a two bedroom at Harborside through Interval International. They did a full cleaning of the unit mid-week for free. The concierge at Interval International had told us there would be a $15 charge PER DAY PER PERSON!!! Maybe they should verify their facts before giving us advice! This is not the first time that we get wrong information from their concierge!!

Thank you all for your advice on bringing coolers with Food!!! We figured it would have cost us over $1500 to eat for the week for a family of five!!! and NOT IN FINE DINING EITHER!! (examples: muffin, coffee and juice $10, sandwich and small bag of chips $10, basic pasta with NO SEAFOOD OR MEAT $38 (with no appetizer or dessert!)

We brought frozen filet mignon, prepackged roast beef, turkey, ham, fish etc... we ate all our meals in the unit and ate better than anyone else! Bacon eggs for breakfast, burgers for lunch etc...

Do not count on the grocery store! there is not much except canned goods! You will pay $20 for A STEAK!! WE had bought frozen filets mignons and ate them for dinner one nignt with vegetables (delicious! and it did not cost us the $58 that the steakhouse was charging for theirs! and it did not even included the vegetable- potatoes $8 etc...

Bring your food or you can expect an added $1500 plus on your bill!!!
