Grand Colorado on Peak 8

Great location and staff
Apr 9th, 2024

What's not to love about ski in ski out, amenities galore, full kitchens, and ample amount of space along with heated indoor parking etc... Rooms: Massive rooms. Ample space. Awesome bathrooms. Full kitchens. Great sized Lanai. Safety: Cmon. We leave all our equipment out on our 1st floor Lanai and don't think twice about it. Incredibly safe. Food & drinks: The only downside to being on peak 8 is having to go into town for food as there's no uber eats or doordash. There are options on site, though, that are good.

The resort is nice, however based on the following described experience, I would not stay in the future, nor recommend anyone participate in this sketchy timeshare scheme: ***WARNING For those staying via an invitation of 2 nights for $99 in exchange for attending a 90 min "low pressure" tour/presentation **** My husband and I received an invitation offering a $99 stay in exchange for attending a 90 min "low pressure" tour/presentation after signing up for a free 4-day/4-night Grand Lodge vacation sweepstakes drawing. Note: Individuals signing up for a free vacation are not the demographic that have financial access to enjoy one or more luxury vacations a year. With that said, we decided two days would still be a fun getaway, and we were happy to see what the tour was all about. The 90 min tour ended up being almost 3 hours. The saleswoman who gave us the tour was friendly and excellent at her job. Had we not recently purchased a house and had a better grasp of our finances with the new mortgage and a first baby on the way, we might have been persuaded by the opportunity. Now having a tight budget, however, we are not afforded the freedom to dish out thousands of dollars at the drop of a hat. Even if we had wanted to consider it, by design, they don't allow time to research or evaluate the purchase. Attempting to negotiate a more affordable package, the saleswoman consulted her manager, who then injected himself into the conversation. This man introduced himself as a pastor (I assume to imply he is trustworthy and has Christian values? ). He tried to sweeten the deal, which was nice, however it simply was not the right time for us to make this kind of purchase. We mentioned that we might be interested in six months or so when we are financially settled from our recent home purchase and move. He immediately went from being a friendly pastor guy to informing us this was a now-or-never opportunity, and if we did not buy now, we would not be invited back. He cited how much money they spent to bring us up there for the weekend (hinting that we were freeloaders). He spoke condescendingly to my husband, explaining that it would not be a good business model to allow us to return without buying a timeshare. We had not indicated an interest in coming back for another "discounted stay"; we only stated that we might consider something like this in the future when we have more financial flexibility. He then suggested we spread the cost out on credit cards since we didn't have the cash on hand. He was rude and borderline desperate to sell us something that allegedly "sells itself". When I explained that we like to be thoughtful about big financial decisions and budget things out, he insisted that all the calculations we needed were right there before us. He insisted we make an un-informed, impulsive decision using high-pressure tactics. This strategy is unethical, and his willingness to make us feel very uncomfortable and unwelcome in order to make a sale did not inspire trust that what they are selling is anything more than a scam. My advice is to take or leave the cheap stay - but the company seems sketchy, and we do not support unethical businesses.
