Thanks for the great write up flyertalk777! I'm headed there in a couple weeks and am really looking forward to it 
just one question... Were they giving everyone the $100 voucher or do you think you got it because you showed a genuine interest in the property?

"If" I was going to buy a timeshare (and I'm not), this would be a good property to consider. But the flights from Beijing/Chinese middle class stuff is pure bs.

From what I'm hearing now and finding online after looking into timeshares more its just like a car, its usually a better deal buying the timeshare on the secondary market. Just like a car loses a lot of value the minute its driven off the lot and isn't brand new, same with a timeshare. So let someone else pay the new price, wait a year or two and get it at a much better rate. The property and units do look great though. I will say that.

Everyone gets the offer, but I picked the 10k Gold Passport points. Better deal IMO.

Everyone gets it. I think its in the fine print of the offer we got in the mail. They asked a couple times to confirm I wanted it (I think at checkin and when checking in for the timeshare presentation) which made me think you can pick a different gift like luau tix or something but I wanted the credit so I didn't ask about that.
Have a great trip!

Points
Sounds like the offers are different then if you are a points member or not. Mine only mentioned the hotel credit and said nothing about points. I'm not a member.

Told this is not a stay eligible rate
I received credit for the charges posted to room but no credit for stay or 5 nights.
So I called Diamond Desk and was told that this is not an eligible rate. Anyone been able to resolve this favorably? The offer doesn't say either way.
I did receive the 10K bonus right away. Was also able to use DSU in advance of arrival by contacting hotel concierge.
Details of the timeshare presentation others have outlined are consistent with what we heard. They said I could change my week for 90,000 GPP if I didn't want to use it. Oh, and in-house financing is done at 13.9%. Wow.
The whole thing didn't make sense to me.

Call the number on this link (1-800-665-8455). Be honest, tell them you don’t have a “Priority Reservation Number via mail from Hyatt Residence Club” but ask if anything might be available. Might get a pleasant surprise.
You’ve probably been doing this long enough to know better. It’s not a matter of lying, it’s misinformation, miscommunication and/or simple ignorance along with trying to please. If the stay credit is important, you probably shouldn’t risk it or at least expect some groveling afterwards. “If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.”

Called the 800 number from the website posted in this thread and kindly asked if I was eligible. Mentioned I may have received the flyer a few months back but no longer have it in my possession. The rep called my bluff and asked for my last name and zip code to look me up. What'd ya know.. My name WAS on the list! Was able to change my dates for an upcoming trip during the Halloween weekend and book at the $299 rate. Now I just need to figure out whether these nights would count towards the 12 required for a Diamond trial/challenge.. Any updates on this?

To confirm, is everyone's offer of the 2BR/2BA?
Also, any confirmation on transferability of the offer? Not entirely sure I'll be able to use it.
