    I've done the same...had the pleasure of using someone's time share...

    Enjoy the butler service around the pool and being able to book a la carte any time...

    Find a top shelf alcohol you like and enjoy that too...

    Otherwise, it was the same experience. I'm going in April without it and don't think I'll miss it too much.

    Most likely you will have a better view in your room...

    The drink service, as was said earlier in the thread, is slightly better.

    Im glad I have a membership but its the customer service that makes it worthwhile to me....

    Not any specific benefit.

    We are members so I would ask your friends what is all included in there contract so you know what is available to you.. like free time at the spa or rights to rent the yacht and how much of a % they get off for any excursions. Also don't forget to get your lobster dinner tickets. Hope this will help.

    We were a little disappointed our first visit at members. The only real benefits we liked was the waiter service around the pool (this was great!), lobster dinner for one night, and being able to book the restaurants at anytime. Other than that it's still the same great experience everyone else gets.

    deff go an book at the restaurnts every night, also the spa has diffrent prices for members, the butler service is great and you can sneak up too the RCI office and get stronger drinks at thier little bar LOL. and you should also have a good view from the room.

    Perks

    Love it but use what can. Very low reduced room rates, Room upgrades, spa, they wait on you hand and foot with better stronger drinks around the pool and beach member sections, use the dinner selections on menu and they reserve the restaurants of you, no standing in lines. White towels, best bartender is at the top of the stairs in the morning through mid day at the timeshare office. They tend to get people looped up on drinks up there but it good stuff, bloody marys there with him are the best! Just tip him and you will have some great drinks and far better then anywhere else. Bartender will even run off beach location to grab you Cheeseburgers and bring them to you if you want to eat on the beach. Those are just some of the things I have used over the last 5 visits, they do treat members like gold from the time of check in to check out anything you need really. Hope that helps thats what I can think of but I am sure I'm missing somethings.....

    Thats for all the help this is what i was looking for. the member gave me a list of perks but there is always more tips to learn i know. I think the big thing is the drinks and service around the pool area. usually we dont leave the party pool. Any more pointers would be great.

    We sometimes meet up with friends at TTR who are "members", we are not.
    He can order a round of drinks for us all, and theirs arrive in "members" red cups, and ours arrive in the regular cups. It's all a bit silly really.
