He says, "Ok, let me get you the sign out sheet."ĭylan comes back with a salesperson Alex. I express my wanting to leave and at this point I don’t care about the gifts. Of course he’s confused and doesn’t know what to say to me so he suggests a feedback card. My tour guide Dylan asks us if we want to look at numbers and I tell him my thoughts about the miscommunication. I get back to my table and it’s apparent that I am bothered. I comment on the selling tactics and she says, ‘Yeah, my husband and I don’t want to buy. I ask her how old is her daughter she says, two. I excused myself from my table to go to restroom and lo and behold I run into a mom with their baby in the restroom. We finish touring the rooms and we head back to the preview center and I can’t make this up, two other families both with strollers, both with 2-4year old children (I am estimating and comparing to my daughter's height and stature) and are upstairs with parents talking to Tour guides (one child on coloring and the other eating a snack).Īt this point I am very angry. They told me my daughter could accompany my husband and I on the meeting.’ I shake it off. I immediately start thinking, ‘Hmmm… that’s interesting. We leave the preview center to go on our tour and I pass a couple who has a stroller with their daughter who is maybe 2 or 3 years old playing on her pad. Information wise everything sounds almost exactly the same compared to our other timeshare. He made everything easy to understand and we had a great day with him. We have the most amazing, down to earth, funny Tour guide Dylan. We had a made come wipe down the wall, light switches, and remote.Ī week later, we come back for our tour. All the furniture (the table, night stand, chairs, and entertainment dresser) was beat up and just deserved an upgrade.
#LAWRENCE WELK RESORT PALM SPRINGS TV#
The TV remote and light switches needed to be wiped down as they were noticeably filthy and the same as the wall dirty to the touch. Just by putting your hand on the wall you can feel the layer of dirt on your fingers. The walls looked and felt like they hadn’t been wiped since I don’t know when. The walls had large dents from moving furniture or furniture that must have been dragged across the wall leaving a dragged dent at least 15 feet in length. The sister hotel, Lakeshore, had put us in an old building and nothing like the photos online. We checked into the resort and we’re given for lack of better words a dirty, old, and out of date hotel room. We were assured we can keep our room for the night. At our stay at Lakeshore, because we weren’t gonna drive two and half hours back home. We chalk it up to a minor miscommunication error. We were disappointed because we then had to rebook our Tour, take off work another day, and pay for a babysitter for the day. Fast forward to our small staycation, we are pulling into the driveway of the Lakeshore Resort (sister hotel) in San Marcos and we are made aware that we can not attend our Tour because our daughter isn’t potty trained and the policy at the day care on site at Welk is that children must be fully potty trained and not in pull ups. The preview reps at the Grand Prix assured us that our daughter could go to a child care center on site while we attend our tour.
My husband and I thought it wasn’t a bad move - small staycation with our daughter, a possible Timeshare upgrade, and a freebie. We were also persuaded by the gifts they promised for our taking the time to drive to Escondido for the tour. We are BlueGreen owners and we were thinking, ‘Why not check what else is out there?’. We then continued to look at the sister hotel on our phones and thought ‘What the heck? Let’s try it!’. This was out of the question as the preview reps expressed that they don’t have availability.
