It just changed for me by over 50% ($750 to $350 for OWV) over the course of a week.

They essentially told me we would not be upgraded unless we paid, noting that the units they were offering me were "the last unit" in each category (including beach pool villa).

They offered the spread between the rooms priced at the member rate. This has been mentioned by others upthread as how their upgrade offers were priced as well.

Either the property changes the pricing method based on season or they offer discounted pricing to some Globalists but not to others. Either way the whole experience has left a bad taste in my mouth. I would have been fine paying $350/night for OWV if they had offered that price the first time I asked. Feels like they tried to screw me.
