Wyndham resorts

We did a time share presentation and was offered a 3 day 2night vacation package however there are some hidden costs. Does anyone have any experience regarding this?

Many people who attend Wyndham timeshare presentations are offered short vacation packages at very attractive rates, such as a 3-day/2-night stay. These offers can seem like a great deal, but there are often additional costs and conditions that may not be immediately obvious.

Here’s what you should know based on experiences shared by others:

  • Resort fees: Many Wyndham properties charge daily resort fees that are not included in the advertised package price. These fees can cover amenities like pools, parking, Wi-Fi, or fitness centers, and can add $30–$50 per night to your stay.
  • Mandatory timeshare presentation: Most of these discounted packages require you to attend a sales presentation, which can last 90–120 minutes or longer. You are expected to stay for the full presentation, and sometimes staff pressure is applied to sign up for a timeshare.
  • Limited availability and room types: Packages are often for standard rooms, and upgrades or specific room requests may come with extra charges.
  • Taxes and incidentals: Taxes are usually not included in the advertised price, and incidental charges such as extra towels, parking, or resort activities may add up.

Tips for navigating the offer:

  • Clarify the total cost upfront, including resort fees, taxes, and any other surcharges.
  • Confirm that your preferred dates and room type are available for the discounted package.
  • Be prepared for the timeshare presentation and know that you can politely decline any offers without penalty.
  • Ask if the package includes breakfast, parking, or other amenities, as sometimes they are not included and will increase your overall expense.
  • Read the fine print carefully—look for cancellation policies and restrictions on modifying the reservation.

Overall, Wyndham vacation packages from timeshare presentations can be a good deal if you plan carefully, are willing to attend the presentation, and account for all hidden fees. Many travelers use them successfully, but it’s important to go in with full awareness of the potential additional costs.
