Subject: Cost of extra nights at Pelican for Owners
Date sent: Fri, 20 Jun 2008
From: Paul da Silva

I read the comments of others and I too agree with them. Not only are
the rates set for non-owners but they also double on Fridays and triple
on Saturdays. Those who deposit their weeks into the rental pool are
killing the goose that lays the golden eggs and I predict will receive
even less of a return from the pool. I like others found significantly
better rates at nearby facilities. When all else fails the MAHO is
less than $100/night plus taxes per hotel room.

After 21 years at the Pelican this is the first time I've had
something to complain about. Paul da Silva - Miami Fl.

Hi Judy,
I am curious about the procedures for determining rates and
availability of extra nights accomodations at the Pelican. I am
reading about the difficulties some people have had when they have
called ahead to arrange a room and weren't able to get something, or
else they are being charged prices that they consider high. This
seems in contrast to what I witnessed this past April while waiting in
line to check-in. My wife and I saw someone ask if they had an extra
night available because something had changed with their travel plans.
The resort said they had a special going on to try to fill the space
in the new buildings and they gave him a night for $50 in the new
building. I almost asked for another night just to get that cheap
rate in the new building :) Thought you might be interested in this
option. Thanks, Brian

Subject: II unit availability
Date sent: Fri, 20 Jun 2008
From: Ann Elliott

Judy,
I read with interest Mary Damm's letter of 11 June 08 regarding exchange.
We were unable to use our 2 weeks this year and I banked them thinking that
we would use one week in November and 1 week next year. But NOOOOO, the
soonest availability in St Maarten for the times we wanted to travel was 2010.
I too got hit with the exchange fee and I opted for the guarantee of $64+ so
the entire exchange was over $200. Never again! I will list on your site
and in Jeff Berger's as I received calls from ads on both those sites for
my April weeks, unfortunately AFTER I banked the weeks.I needed a little
more patience. Lesson learned! Another friend who owns the same weeks,
put his units on your site and rented both. So for Mary and others
interested in getting their weeks to other owners - use Judy's site
and Jeff's - they work! Thanks Ann Elliott

Dear Judy,

It is surprising to read about some disappointments at Los Gauchos.
My husband and I eat there at least twice every year. We have had
terrific meals and have found Liesa and the staff to be friendly,
attentive and very caring of their guests.

Timeshare Legislation -  there is not a separate time share
law, but newly introduced time share rights, which have been
incorporated in Book 7 of the Civil Code of the Netherlands
Antilles (“Purchase of rights of use in timesharing of real
property”) , whereby an ownership right of the right to
temporarily use (per week etc) for real estate has been
constituted.  It is Federal legislation and therefore
applicable to all the Island Territories that form
part of the Netherlands Antilles (Curacao, Bonaire,
St. Maarten, Saba and St. Eustatius)

Donations to Crystal Children's Home:

This organization has no government funding to help house,
feed and clothe the 13 children they have placed there. I
am hoping your website can assist them in raising funds
and receiving donations of food and clothing. Credit can be
made at Grand Marche for groceries, GEBE for utilities
etc. Many people leave bags of food in their rooms at the
end of vacation, they could be encouraged to take it to
AQUA MARINA ADVENTURES as a donation (unopened items) to the
home instead. Thank you, Best Regards,

RENT FOR LESS CAR RENTAL: is the best car rental on the island from
my experience. They greet you at the airport and always give you a
new car. Best prices I have found. Have been using them for years
and have never had a bad experience. Ask for Patrick or Edwin. Tell
them Lee Singer recommended them. R4LCARRENTAL@megatropic.com

a website for easier service and an email account for online reservations.

BOOK EXCHANGE AT PELICAN B POOL
If anyone has any books, noodles or craft materials that they have
enjoyed using while at the resort but would rather not take back
with them, they can always leave them with me. I have a fairly large
book exchange but new materials always appreciated. Also, If anyone
has BOOKS ON TAPE or CD and would like to bring them down for me, I
would appreciate it. I would like to start a listening
book exchange in addition to the traditional book exchange.
Regards, Kathy Singular, Social Activities Manager
