Just got home last night from a week at MMOC as guest of friends. We purchased Ocean Front 2b/3b week at MMOC about 10 years ago... before the pool was finished. It has always been our favorite destination. Due to bad economy, we had to sell our unit 2 years ago for $36,000. We were heart broken at the time...(now we would only get $24,000). We had a great time this trip, but things didn't seem quite the same. It's a slow time of year, but the main pool was completely packed. For first time ever, our friends were not able to get the Ocean Front section they always prefer... after booking 12 months ahead. There did not seem to be the same old "ownership commeraderie" at poolside that we used to enjoy... and owners coming from their annual "sales" meeting were mostly upset. Financially, we are in a position to repurchase a week at MMOC and have been looking at offerings on Redweek for some time. However, after this visit, I don't think I'm interested in being an owner any more. If we decide to go again, on short notice we can rent the same Ocean Front unit on Redweek for as low as $2,200. That's not much more than the annual assessment for owners. Good luck to all existing owners.
