Re: Manhattan Club Lawsuit (by W. S.):

I have owned a week in a metro suite split over two years for 9 years now and have been quite pleased. As the owner of a timeshare with Hilton Grand Vacations Club as well, I have always been attuned to the fact that one must plan well in advance to reserve the time one prefers and that this is particularly true for the Manhattan Club after Labor Day. That being said, I have never had a problem booking during this time when the six month lead point occurs. Obviously, if everyone who has legitimately bought a timeshare with the Manhattan club is looking to book during the holidays, there simply are not enough rooms to accommodate. However, I don't think anyone wants to go back to the inflexible timeshare model of purchasing a specific room for a specific calendar week. This lawsuit has come as a surprise to me and may or may not have merit. I do know, however, that if many owners start refusing to pay their maintenance fees, the ones who continue to do so will be screwed.
