Just wanted to back up previous complaints on Marriot reservation(s) for timeshares at Newport Coast.
It is ridiculous to try to book a week in the summer. After paying a large amount for the time share, each year you have to pay maintenence and taxes which is about 1400. Then if you try to book a week June through September you have to wake up at 5 Am in my time zone one year ahead to try to get a week. Good luck with that because the odds of that are slim and none. Save your money because for what you pay annually you can book a hotel wherever and whenever you like. (and that is after your initial investment) Your initial investment is worth about half or less the minute the ink dries on the contract. I believe they are selling in excess of 25K through Marriot and you can buy this from a current owner for about 10K on E Bay.
They promise you the world, but they are a bunch of crooks!
