This is the 1st time I have ventured out of my DVC comfort zone to use points for Aruba through RCI. I had searched many times in the past, but would always just find scattered days and never able to come up with a continuous week. After just playing around, I was able to secure a full week in Aruba for June 2019 for a 1 bedroom accommodation.
DVC Member services was very helpful in explaining how to secure the booking, use my current use year points, etc.. It is not an all inclusive resort but there are still taxes/fees associated with the stay...my quick estimate puts it around $400. And bonus...….not sure if others are aware, as I was not, the $95 exchange fee is being waived for bookings through RCI I believe until end of 2018.
Next will be play the airfare game once fares are released!
Has anyone else ever stayed RCI - Divi Phoenix #8729 (I understand there are two location numbers for this resort)?
