What was their excuse as to why you could not use your timeshare?

Yes, we can' tbook either and we have owned for 2 yrs!!...When we called, we were told our taxes weren't ready..Westgate is a PITA and a rip off...The first buyers got screwed over with the July 4th week, when they went and sold that week, when many of us ASKED about it at the time we bought!!

the condos are very nice and brand new...well they were when we were there in July 07...We did have a problem with the a/c but call maint and they came right away and fixed it...They were in the process of tearing out the indoor pool and putting in a parking garage but we never heard any of the noise while at the pool or beach...I wouldn't eat at the rest...we did and 3 of 5 of us ended up sick...

call as early as allowed and be redy to pay maintenance fees, actually I would pay the maint/taxes BEFORE I called to book my week...Make sure you get a confirmation number while on phone and the person's name that you are talking to...I would have them send me an e-mail confirmation..hope this helps

We too have bought our timeshare last year. Then paid our maintenance and taxes and were told that we could get in this year. Dec.2008 we called and they said it was totally booked. After pursuing that through a supervisor, we found out that the building was not finished being built. That we could maybe get into it later this year. So as the beginning of the year we started to call every 2 weeks to try to book our week. In March they said that we could book this summer if we called May 29. As of now we are supposedly booked for this summer.

We book one year in advance, and generally get a week during the summer. Not had any major problems if booked far enough out.
