Since we have been Westgate owners, we have enjoyed the idea that we can invite our friends to spend the week with us just like we would if we were at home in North Carolina. We like the idea to be able to eat out or cook a meal and enjoy the company of our guests in our "home away from home". Not to mention, all the attractions in the Westgate area that lets everyone find something to make them happy during the week.

When we were on vacation last year, we took our 12 year old daughter and a friend. We spent 3 or 4 days hitting the theme parks pretty hard. On Wednesday, our daughter said, "You know, I'd just like to stay here today to enjoy this fun place."
We had one of the nicer days on our trip swimming, paddle boating, and eating pizza and never left Westgate. It was like having a vacation in the midst of a vacation.”

Upon arriving in Orlando for our first experience as new owners of Westgate Resorts, we were delighted to see our two-bedroom condo. Westgate offered our two boys, ages 15 and 12 activities everyday. We met with a sales manager and ended up buying another week at Westgate Smoky Mountains. My family and I had a vacation to remember. Westgate Resorts is the best!”

I have had the opportunity to share my experience at Westgate Resorts with some dear friends and their daughters. I must say that I was pleased with the way we enjoyed our vacation. We didn't even want to go back home! The customer service was excellent.
I now have an addition to my family and I can't wait until she experiences the fun and” at home feeling” while being away from home. Thank you for an experience of a lifetime. I will continue to refer people to your Resort.”

Mary Frances and I have enjoyed every minute of Westgate timeshare ownership, but one vacation stands out as the best. It was a wonderful week of just leisure time in a beautiful resort, because we just took time to spend a week together. I estimate that we spent more quality time together in that 7 days than we usually spend in three months. It was nice to just relax in comfort.
It was good that we invested some money in our future vacation time. It was far superior to a four star hotel.

As a 49th wedding anniversary present, I arranged a trip for my mother and father to Las Vegas. To be able to provide a beautiful, but economical (for me!) vacation for the people who gave birth to me does not begin to pay them for their years of caring for me. It certainly makes me feel a great deal of satisfaction that I bought a property that I can share with my family that offers versatility, beauty, comfort, options and as a result, a flood of memories.
Thanks to Westgate for providing the means for me to fulfill at least some of my family's dreams.

Before I purchased my timeshare weeks I booked vacations like everyone else. It was always potluck when we arrived and that was my main reason for purchasing a timeshare. I know that wherever I go, I will always be in a beautiful Westgate resort and be comfortable and happy. That is worth every penny that I spent on purchasing my timeshare.
Each resort provides added amenities for the owners which is a nice way to feel special. I have referred many of my friends and everyone was very pleased and many have purchased themselves. Westgate believes that if the owners are happy, referrals and new owners will arrive. I must say for the past seven years I have not been disappointed with the services Westgate Resorts has provided.
Since we have purchased, each vacation has been a great experience. The reason? Westgate Resorts.

Many years ago when my husband and I came to Westgate as referrals, one of the other owners told us that his time owned at Westgate was a forced vacation, something not so easy to put off till some tomorrow.
We have taken his advice to heart and agree that a forced vacation is a wonderful gift to our children and our extended family. Westgate is a part of our family! As always we can't wait to use our vacation week next February. Our children love Westgate! See you soon!”

I am very picky about where my family stays when we vacation so therefore we usually end up paying top dollar to stay in the very best resorts and hotels.
With all the great options we now have as owners, vacations are much less expensive. I know that our accommodations will always meet my expectations. We are planning an exchange right now and are looking forward to an absolutely WONDERFUL vacation! Thank you Westgate! You have made vacations so much easier!”

Our first experience with Westgate Resorts happened in 1995 whereby we, our family, children and grandchildren, exchanged our Pennsylvania timeshare for a week at Westgate Resorts. Needless to say, we were overwhelmed with our welcome and the facilities at that time.
We found out, with our many exchanges, that there are not many timeshares, if any, that could compare with Westgate, therefore, we are extremely satisfied to be permanent, proud owners with “The best of the best, WESTGATE RESORTS!”
