My husband and I rented a 3 bedroom unit at Bryce Resort through the Armed Forces Vacation Club. We ended up getting a pedestal unit - a mini house. It had three stories, a pool table and washer and dryer in the basement. The fireplace and two decks weren't useable and there was only one TV (in the living room).... More

Our family had a delightful time at Chalet High this past November. We had visited in October of 2011, and we were pleasantly surprised to stay in a different unit this year that was clean and nicely renovated . . . with lots of room for our family to feel the freedom to "stretch out" and relax! We loved the... More

we own 2 5 star timeshares in Florida. I trusted Interval international with not having any very below grade resorts. This shouldn't be on any resort list of any sort. The personel were not helpful they thought it was funny! The toilets were dirty, 1 1980's T.V. in the frontroom, no computer. 3 bedrooms on 3 floors one t.v. 4... More

We apologize you encountered difficulty during your stay. New management recently took over at the resort and is working with the board of directors to address some of the issues you mentioned as funds become available. For instance, starting Sept. 1, the indoor pool will be available at much better hours than the current pools allow. We are working diligently... More

We have been owners of a late May week in a pedestal chalet since its beginning in 1980. Then, and for the following 5 years, it was sensational. An 8-person chalet overlooking a golf course with a sauna, jacuzzi, pool (billiard) room, lovely fireplace, and a high end electrical grill range in the kitchen. There were three or four decent...

We decided to book a very last minute vacation and decided on this one since it was within driving distance. The place is very out of date and run down condition. The nicest thing was that there is an indoor pool available however problem with that is that is only available between very limited hours during the day and closed... More

We are owners at nearby Creekside Village but usually exchange every year. This year we decided to exchange here. Let me start by saying if you are looking for a 5 star resort look elsewhere. It does need some renovations, no doubt. As owners, we know that they recently raised the maintenance fees in an attempt to address the needed... More

We stayed in unit 31 for 2 nights over MLK weekend, 2012. We read all the reviews so expected the worst and were not surprised when that is what we got. Bottom line characterization, "Time Warp with a 'there, I fixed it' mentality". The chair in the living room was threadbare and dirty so we had to put a sheet... More

We've stayed at RCI resorts around the world-from Italy to Kenya-and this is by far the worst resort of all of them. It's heartbreaking really, because the resort is in a beautiful location. The floor plans are not half bad. The staff is friendly and courteous. The biggest problem is there seems to be no maintenance inside the units at... More

This is the fourth year I have came to this dump, each year it gets worst. The linoleum in the foyer and kitchen is worn, torn and loose, someone could easily get a heel caught in it and fall. Never in my life have I seem such dilapidation in a supposedly resort area. Bed linens are dingy and worn,bath towels... More

We were lucky to win Chalet 6 at a raffle from the time share's owner, and I was hesitant after reading the reviews on here, but you can't beat a free place! First off, yes, it feels like you've stepped into a time warp, outdated pictures, typical hotel quilt bedding, pastel wallpaper in the bathroom and wood paneled walls... but... More
