Mystic Dunes Resort: The good and bad review you need to read
By Brian Miller
Because Mystic Dunes Resort is a timeshare, you are bombarded with offers almost from the moment you check in.
Timeshares can be great for some people and a nightmare for others. My wife and I laughed because the television is always on channel one when you turn it on and they talk about why you shouldn’t cave into the scams that offer to get you out of a timeshare. I won’t go into the details of mine, I have an eventual out and it didn’t cost me much, but you are pressured to buy the second you arrive.
Whether you are a member or not a member, expect your phone to be ringing with an offer to spend at least an hour during your week getting a sales presentation masked as something else. They will offer you points, free airfare, and even pre-paid credit cards. Tell them no and they will simply offer more. Hang up and they will call back. Tell them no again and they will call you back with another date and offer. It doesn’t necessarily end when you get home either.
On the plus side, they got me one time when I was out of the resort area and I told them to call me back later. Later turned out to be on resort property where I had no phone service.
If you are interested in a timeshare then I would say that there are positives about Diamond Resorts but I would really think twice about joining any timeshare company unless they can provide you written options to get out later but that is more of a personal choice.
