    I already own a timeshare through Wyndham (formally Fairfield Resorts) and if I'm not going to use my points in a given year, I can bank them with RCI. I noticed Temptation is available via RCI. My question is, if I book through RCI, will I be treated as a Premier member?

    The only perk you will get is that they do put you in the Premier section of the resort that overlooks the Sexy Pool. We have booked our first 2 trips through RCI but have got better deals through Alpha Rooms in April and our upcoming trip in October.
    Hope this helps,

    We used our RCI week last year and we still had pay the difference for the all inclusive and didn't really notice any other perks other than getting to check in in the RCI office and we did get to "choose"our room location I guess but no free upgrades or anything else as we got the same red wristband . We ended up doing the breakfast tour and got premier status through that but it was separate from our RCI thing.

    How much was the difference for all-inclusive?

    We have RCI membership as well, however it was actually cheaper to book thru ORBITZ. Then we didn't use our Worldmark points. The ALL INCLUSIVE fee was really high. You just have to check it out and see what works best at that time.

    I think it ended up being about $700 for the week
