The resort and setting
Marriott's Grande Vista is a Marriott Vacation Club property at 5925 Avenida Vista, Orlando, in Orange County, Florida. Google reviewers rate it 4.4 out of 5 from over 8,900 reviews, and Google's own summary calls it a "lively property" with modern villas, tennis courts, a golf academy and laid-back dining options on site. It's built around the villa-style accommodation typical of Marriott Vacation Club resorts, aimed at families and groups who want more space than a single hotel room offers.
The area and things to do
Orlando's International Drive area and the main theme park corridor are close by, which is the main draw for most owners and renters booking this resort. Beyond the parks, Orange County offers golf courses, outlet shopping and a wide choice of dining, and the resort's own golf academy and tennis courts give guests something to do without leaving the property. This is a destination built for repeat family trips, which is part of why Marriott Vacation Club weeks here tend to get used year after year rather than left idle.
Selling or renting a week here
If you own a week or points at Marriott's Grande Vista and want to sell, you can list it for resale on BidMyTimeshare.com as an owner-to-owner listing: you set your own asking price, buyers contact you directly through the platform, and you pay a one-time listing fee with 0% commission on the sale.
Before you list, it helps to know how Marriott Vacation Club resales actually work, because the figures differ from buying direct:
- **Transfer / resale fee**: for points, Marriott charges resale buyers $750 per 250 points, with a $3,000 minimum, plus fees; for US legacy weeks, the fee is $25 plus a $95 right-of-first-refusal fee, according to RedWeek and resale broker aTimeshare. - **Right of first refusal**: Marriott Vacation Club holds a right of first refusal on resales, running 15 to 30 days depending on the resort, so a sale isn't final until that window has passed or Marriott waives it. - **What a resale buyer does not get**: points bought on the resale market do not count toward Reserve or Pinnacle membership tiers, and a resold legacy week cannot be enrolled in Abound or converted to Marriott Bonvoy points. - **Timeline**: owners report that a full transfer typically takes 3 to 4 months to complete.
These fees aren't published on an open Marriott web page — the detail sits behind the owner portal login — so it's worth confirming current figures with Marriott or a resale broker before agreeing a price with a buyer.
Renters, meanwhile, are mostly looking for dates that line up with school holidays and proximity to the parks, so being clear about your villa size, view and exact week (fixed, floating, or points) in your listing helps attract serious enquiries.
Practical notes
Marriott's Grande Vista participates in Interval International, so owners with exchange-eligible weeks or points may be able to trade into other resorts through that network — worth checking your specific contract, since eligibility can vary by unit and season.

Travel Tips
Orlando's theme parks get busiest around US school holidays and major events, so book travel dates early if you're renting a week. Summer brings heat, humidity and sudden afternoon thunderstorms, so pack accordingly and build downtime into park days. A rental car makes getting around Orange County's spread-out attractions far easier than relying on resort shuttles alone.
