Greetings,

I think it would be nice if we had a Starwood Maintenance Fee Chart, much like Marriott has:
http://www.tug2.net/advice/marriottmf.htm

I'm not sure who would actually put the chart up on Tug. I wouldn't mind compiling the information in to an Excel spreadsheet. At a minimum, the information would exist in this thread. If you would like to contribute, please list the following:

Resort, Year, Season
Unit Size
Total Fees (if possible, break down by Maintenance Fee, Reserve, Tax, SVN Fee)

Pulled from an earlier thread:

Vistana Villages, 2005, ?
2 bd LO
$1135.75 (MF: $847.50; Tax $189.45; SVN fee: $99)

I would contribute my own info, but I don't have first occupancy until 2006 and have rec'd a bill yet!

Thanks!

The replacement reserve is for replacing furnishings, etc., as they wear out and must be completely replaced.

2004

MF - $1,117.82
SVN Fee - $103.30


2005

MF - 1,178.38

Sure, I'll take the EOYs. If nothing else, I'd like to see if they're exactly half of the EYs. In the case of your Ka'anapali, it look like your EOY fee runs $30 over the EY. That would make sense if you're being charged $30 for your second SVN fee rather than $103.30. Are you actually paying two full SVN fees? It was my understanding that a second week costs $30 and a third week and beyond would not have additional SVN fees. Of course, that may be only for EYs.

Glorian --

My SVN fees are:

$103.30 at WKORV
$ 30.00 at SMV

As you pointed out, the reduced fee at SMV is because I am a multiple week owner.
