I heard, reliable or not, that they would be ready by October/November of this year. Hoping for use for our January trip. The resort would not commit to a time frame when asked back in April....

SBR invoked the "force majeur" (Act of God) clause of the contract which basically released both parties from the contract without recompense. They did however offer the owners a floating "Points" offer if they continued to make maintenance payments for their no-longer existing units. The "Points" could be used at Royal Resorts properties or exchanged in Interval. We lost C11A weeks 8 and 9 and C11B week 8. Our member photo was taken years ago from the C11A unit.
