Bluegreen VacationsReviews of bluegreenvacations.com

Bluegreen overall is a disaster. I thought I was signing up for a relaxing annual fishing trip, but the only thing that got caught was me. You are hit with ever-increasing maintenance fees that they never disclose upfront. When you sit down and add up the fees you realize you could easily pay for luxury vacations every year without any of the strings attached. Don’t fall for the pitch. Stick to booking your own trips and save your sanity!

I am writing this review to express my deep frustration with our Bluegreen timeshare membership. What was sold to us as a benefit has become a significant financial liability that we can no longer justify. Despite paying our annual fees, we consistently face major hurdles with limited point availability and restrictive usage. It is nearly impossible to book the locations we want during the times we are actually available to travel. Combined with a recent downturn in our income, this expense has become an unbearable burden. We have already reached out to management requesting a total closure of our membership and a refund of our investment, but we have yet to receive a single response to our initial complaint. We even sent a formal letter regarding late payments to notify them of our intent to cancel, yet the silence continues. We are fully aware that stopping payments could negatively impact our credit report, but we feel forced into this position because our concerns are being ignored. We want to settle this matter amicably and simply want to speak with a supervisor who can actually assist us with the next steps for closure. We are done with the booking hurdles and the lack of communication. If you are looking into this company, be warned that getting assistance once you want out seems impossible.

Don't let them suck you in. They'll keep you stuck in a sales meeting for hours, promising "exclusive" access but it’s a joke when you realize non owners can book the same resorts. There is no point in "owning" anything when you're hit with skyrocketing maintenance fees for the same rooms anyone else can get. The worst part is that as soon as you tell them you want out of this trap they refuse to help and just try to sell you more points. Not only is it a financial burden, but a constant headache. Save your money and just book a hotel normally. Don't make the same mistake we did!

I recently purchased a package where I was very specific about traveling to specific destinations. I was told there were many options for travel even to specific areas in the US. When I was ready to plan my trip they only had 7 cities that were nowhere remotely in the areas I mentioned I travel. After talking with two people to get this rectified they refused to refund my money and gave me the option to give this to someone or travel to one of the destinations. Refund was outside the window. My loyalty to choice hotels is gone. They're a scam!

I bought into Bluegreen Vacations to get a short getaway, but it has turned into a complete financial nightmare. They sell these timeshare with incredibly high pressure and are very deceptive. During one of our upgrade meetings in Tennessee, there was actually a fire, and the sales reps still rushed us to sign the paperwork quickly while it was happening! They promised us affordable maintenance fees but completely failed to mention how much they would skyrocket over the years. My fees started at $400 and are now nearly $4,000. Even when we try to use the timeshare, it is nearly impossible to book anything unless we do it well over a year in advance. I would not recommend it.

We have been owners with Bluegreen for almost 20 years and have had a very frustrating experience. When we first signed up, we were assured that booking vacations would be easy and flexible. Instead, we’ve found it nearly impossible to actually use what we paid for. The availability is so limited that you have to plan YEARS in advance. In almost 20 years, we’ve only managed to use the timeshare once! I do not recommend buying into this. It's a scam!

I would never recommend Bluegreen to anyone because it is just constant pressure and misleading information from every angle. They make it seem like an affordable way to vacation, but that is far from the truth. The maintenance fees go up and they also pressure you into owner meetings, but those are really just a trap to get you to buy more points and spend even more money! I haven't even been able to use this timeshare once since I signed up. Save your money and do not sign up!

We’ve tried every possible route to resolve this ownership and leave on decent terms, but every conversation circles back to one thing. Paying Bluegreen more money. Jennifer came across no different than Carlito in our experience. Different person, same message. No real solutions, no willingness to help, just more pressure and more fees. Our account was already paid in full, yet we were told we’d need to hand over another $15,000–$20,000 just to walk away. We even tried Pinnacle which is BlueGreens time share resale company recommendation and we paid 75$ to have our time share listed and after 6 months we called back and found out they never listed our property, but sure took our 75$. Calls were ignored, follow-ups never happened, and nothing meaningful was ever resolved. The hardest part is remembering the promises made years ago during a time when we were already dealing with serious health issues and trusted what we were being told. Since then, maintenance fees have continued climbing and the stress and financial burden attached to this ownership has only gotten worse. At this point, we feel completely unheard and unsupported. We are done pouring money into something that has caused nothing but frustration and disappointment.
