Once again, I feel I have been taken by Oak Plantation Resort in Kissimmee. I just received a letter in the mail stating I can no longer exchange my timeshare through RCI due to failure on the Oak Plantation Resort to maintain the required resort score with RCI.
I can understand RCI's concerns. I got suckered into buying into this resort in 2009 when I was visiting on my honeymoon. I was shown a very nice unit at that time. However, when we returned, I was put in a unit that did not come close to comparing to what I was shown. The unit was worn down, the furniture in poor shape, the grounds not kept up, no room service.
My latest trip this year, was the worst ever. The unit was in horrible shape, when I stepped into the shower, I actually felt like the flooring underneath was going to give out, grounds were pathetic, no maintenance support and no room service staff to be found.
It seems like there are more laws protecting these companies than there are to protect the public from being taken, like I and apparently others have been. Now that I own the unit, I can't seem to find a way out other than donating it. This is ridiculous that I have no recourse when this company obviously has not held up their end of the deal in keeping the facilities maintained yet continue to take my annual maintenance fees.
If there are any class action law suits pending out there, I would love to know how to join in because this is not acceptable to allow these resorts to rip off the public.
