My husband and I took advantage of the deal last October and the sales pitch was very low key, no pressure. Once it was apparent we were not interested in purchasing the timeshare (55k for one week every other year) the meeting got wrapped up pretty quickly - we were in and out within an hour. I'm wondering if anyone has received an offer to stay in the actual residences, now that they have partially completed construction. I've heard there is an offer for 6 days/5 nights at the residence club in a 2 bedroom for $199 per night, taxes and resort fees included. I wish we would have waited for that offer ):

Yes, we are booked for the last week in February. It was very easy to book and they want you to do the sales pitch on your last full day at the property. If anyone has stayed there it would be great to hear a review. I will definitely update this thread with our impressions. Can't beat a 6 day/5 night stay for $100 per couple.
The sales presentation was good, low pressure... first part was with friendly, young rep... once we got to asking about rates, they brought in senior manager/experienced sales director... but once we said we really weren't interested they let us go and gave us a bonus $100 off the bill.
This was a FANTASTIC trip and couldn't beat the price. Love this resort!

HR Maui: Timeshare Presentation Offer
Received an offer in the mail for a $200/night rebate - up to five nights - for a stay at the HR Maui. They promise rates "as low as $279 a night" (minus the $200 then, to be paid with a gift card).
The requirement is to attend a 90 min timeshare presentation at the Hyatt Ka'anapali Beach Club Resort.
Has anyone tried this offer? I have zero interest in a timeshare; how painful of an experience is the 90 min presentation? (I have never bothered with those discounted activity offers they push all over Hawaii, but this is up to $1000). Also, I wonder how much above the best AAA rate the room rate offered under this program would be.
Thoughts?

I did the 5 nights for $299 offer in December. The salesperson was pretty laid back and realized I really wasn't interested in buying. We started with a quick chat about travel preferences and how much I spent on hotels and how long my vacations were. Then we toured a couple units. My 90 min presentation ended up only being 45 minutes.
Also thanks to peteropny for redirecting my question to this thread.

Any tips on how to get on their mailing list for these special offers? I have never received one.

My wife just received one in the mail, any ideas as to how my diamond status can be used during our stay? I'm assuming that we can make take advantage of the deal as husband and wife.

Get it in writing
Make sure that to review your reservation info. Ours had a 45 day cancellation policy when they committed to 3 days. They had a king and a queen (plus queen sleeper), when it should have been 2 kings and a sleeper. They also charged us $1128 for the week when it should have been $995.
I had them correct it all and to provide it in an official document.
For those getting the offer, the earliest check-in date for 2015 is now no earlier than 6/25.
