I Am Running For Spot As Board Member of Oak Plantation Resort

Due to the decline in value at Oak Plantation Resort and all it's mismanagement, I have decided to run for a spot on the Board of Directors.  I am not exactly sure how difficult this will be, since Owners like myself were sent notification of the Annual Meeting which I believe  will be held on September 12, 2012 at the Oak Plantation Resort in Kissimmee, FL.

I am running because at a trip that AI took to the Resort 2 years ago, several things caught my eye.  First off, when I checked into the front desk for my annual unit, discovered that my unit had been rented out to someone!  Now, mind you, I am an owner, with annual usage since 2008, and this NEVER should have happened.  Secondly, upon their granting me another room and upgrading the size to make up for the mistake, I discovered upon entering the unit that the front door had cobwebs caked onto it.   If you were a guest somewhere,  the front door is among the first things that you see.  As you can imagine, this set the tone of my visit.

Once inside the unit, I noticed that they still had VHS cassette players, yet in the lobby they rented DVDs.  A quick complaint call led them to bring us a DVD player, which was good.   Another thing apparent inside the unit was that some things that were obviously worn - carpet, scratches and dents in the walls, etc. apparently had been that way for some time.   There was a fair amount of dust on things in the unit.

Later on I used the Fitness Room, which had a treadmill machine whic must have been as old as the Resort - 20 years.   Also the other equipment there was old, including the television.

Despite all the bad things that I have since read about the Resort- the horrible service, bedbugs, run- down amenities in the units and more, I believe that this once fabulous Resort,  which is located on a nice,  quaint spot with oak trees and is only about a 6 mile drive to Walt Disney World's gates, can be rejuvenated and made to become a premier destination spot in the Orlando area.  With better management, housekeeping,  repairs, maintenance,  and service,  the value of this Resort will increase over time for all owners.  Value means fetching higher prices for room stays.  Value comes from the Resort being sold-out.  Value means that an owner can sell his interest quickly, due to high demand.

These are the reasons that I want to be on this board- so that some accountability will take place!

Why Can't I Sell My Oak Plantation Resort Timeshare Week for Even $200? Because it sucks!

Hey. I like going to Walt Disney World, and I used to enjoy my week at Oak Plantation, but the reality is, it now sucks. Why? I will go into tons of details why the Management of Oak Plantation Resort sucks. It has decreased the value of the resort for all Owners. It undercuts the other current owners by renting rooms for cheaper than what the Owners pay in dues. They have mismanaged the Resort, let it get run down, and they won't even let a dissatisfied owner (like me) simply give them my week back. If the Resort were really such a deal, wouldn't they let me give them back one or both of my weeks? Right? I will be blogging about the mismanagement of the resort again really soon!

Need a Timeshare near Walt Disney World in Lake Buena Vista, Florida? Buy My Unit at the Oak Plantation Resort!

If you are interested in buying a timeshare, don't overpay by buying it from a middle-man- those salespeople all over Kissimmee and Orlando. Buy it direct from an owner. One great place to own a timeshare is Oak Plantation Resort in Kissimmee. Why? There are great amenities at the resort. There is also ample dining within walking and driving distance to the resort. There's a Wal-Mart only a quarter-mile away. The best part- you are literally only 5 miles down the Irlo Bronson Highway from the town of Celebration, and the entrance to Walt Disney World!

The unit that I'm selling here is in week 36, is annual, and is in unit 107. I'm only selling it for $500. After you pay me the $500, I will send you the signed deed, and "bam"- you can take it and have it recorded, and it's yours! No middle-man.


If you would like more information about the Resort, other than what you can find on the internet, you can call the resort directly. You can call me if you are interesting in buying this unit from me, and you have questions. My number is (323)393-5822, David.

Thank you!

Video of Oak Plantation Resort by the Trip to Earth Guy

This video by the Trip to Earth Guy is representative of the Oak Plantation Resort. The unit that I'm selling on this blog is only a 1-bedroom, but it does sleep 4 people comfortably. The Resort is only 6 miles from Walt Disney World, too.

Price Increase

I decided that I'm going to sell this timeshare property for $900. That's a good price- the Resort would have charged you $14,000 for it, so I think it's a good deal for someone who likes this Property, and who likes to visit the Orlando/Walt Disney World area. The Oak Plantation Resort is in Kissimmee, FL. The unit I'm selling is a 1 bedroom unit that sleeps 4.

I Love Priceline.com

Priceline.com is my favorite website for booking rooms for 1 or 2 nights anywhere. You can go to that website and look at how much rooms are going for generally, and then name your own price, in an attempt to get the rates that you want. I used Priceline to book 2 nights in Fort Lauderdale on my last trip to Florida last month. I paid $63 per night, tax included. I also got a mid-sized rental car for 9 days for $16 per day through Priceline.
