What does a "referral week" get you???

So we booked through a friends referral week this year and were told we will be getting the premium white bracelets... I am assuming that means we get everything that premium members get right?

I am hoping that we at least get the booze upgrade. Any idea what's on shelf for premium members? Any insight you may have is appreciated!

 

This is what someone sent us (see below)...one note - you do have to sit through a 90 minute (I'm sure hard sell) presentation. That's really the main reason why we aren't going that route. I guess the benefits aren't as big a deal for us as you can get rooms for about the same rate if you hunt around. FYI - the member that you are getting the referral from also gets a credit.

You get all the Premier benefits:
Free WiFi
Upgraded room - Ocean view
Premier bar, Premier seating around pool, Premier bed on beach, Premier drink servers (they even bring you lunch so you never have to leave the pool/beach area) Premier Alcohol (Absolut, Crown Royal, Cuervo Tradicional & Milagro tequila, Jack Daniels + ice cold 16oz bottles of water)
Free Lobster dinner with 6-night or longer stay
Premier check in - no need to go to the front desk for check in/out
Butler's to help with anything - great for dinner reservations
Use of the spa
and a bunch of other little things

 

EDIT: S_and_MA beat us to it... and provided a better answer.

 

You also have to sit though the timeshare presentation in order for your referrers to get their $250. Kyle mentioned in his trip report it's around 2 to 2-1/2 hours and they skipped the tour/breakfast part. Look at Monday the 7th in this report:

I will add that you also get reserved seats by the sexy pool on the new deck and access to the bar on the deck which is premier only. And a room upgrade to either 3000 block which is next to the sexy pool or 1000 block which is around the quiet pool. Gets you away from paty o's noise and ensures you are not too far away from the action. To me the 90 min presentation was worth lunch by the pool alone. My wife hated the 90 mins which turned into more like a little over 2 hours.

 

Ha thanks Andrew. You beat me to it. I need to read the trip report again to get me thru this horrible winter and relive the Octoberbreast fun. For Philadelphia 3 snows of over 6 inches (including a foot last night) plus negative 5 degree Fahrenheit temps is the end of the world. I know that is nothing new for the Canada folks.

 

For anyone who is not familiar with Kyles trip reports I urge you to read them, they are truly great reading and put all others to shame. Funny, informative and an in-depth snapshot of life at TTR.

 

We are going on a referral week too. The free wifi is worth it.

 

My phone and tablet sits in the safe for the entire trip, I don't think I'd ever use the wifi if we had it. Mind you we don't have children at home.

 

Children and I'm self employed. I have to communicate with the "real world" a couple of times a day.
