I took a blue/green tour May 23, 2023 to Branson, Mo. I was offered a $100 gift card, a $25 gift card and 40,000 Choice Privilege points this is July 18, 2023. I have been talking to them since May all I have gotten is we will try and check on it. That’s all I have gotten - talk no action.

My husband bought a 3 night stay in Las Vegas for $250 from bass pro. When we got there we had to pay $60 in taxes/fees and had an option that if you wanted room service you would have to pay $80 extra. You have to go to a mandatory 2 hour presentation with everyone that checked in if not you get charged $200. When we got to the presentation we were upfront about not buying the timeshare. They will still try to sell you but once they see that you are not going to budge they will become rude and condescending. It felt like a scam. Worst experience ever.

Made a reservation with points and were told we had until 9p to cancel. Called at 815p to cancel only to find the (p deadline was Eastern time, so office was closed. Were not told we could canel online anytime before midnight. Called next morning to cancel reservation and were told there would be a $75 fee if cancellation over the phone or $60 if cancelled online. They refused to waive the cancellation fee twice, despite their not communicating the prior deadline time properly nor the online option. So, I'm out $60 because they did not do their job! By calling twice, I gave them ample opportunity to do what was obviously the right thing, but they refused. Do NOT ever buy a Bluegreen timeshare, EVER!! Run as far and as fast as you can from any and all sales pitches, etc. from Bluegreen. It is a huge ripoff, that only begins with unfair and inappropriate cancellation fees.

My husband and I were approached by a blue green vacations representative at Cabelas in Acworth, Georgia. He explained that we would get a three night vacation at a resort style hotel of our choice for $179. So we paid it and I started looking online to book the vacation. I noticed that the website kept trying to sell me an upgrade for $80 per night. I read reviews that said that sometimes they will put you in a standard hotel instead of the resort style hotel that they promised. So I called them and explained that I was available any time in the following month and would happily go stay at any of the surrounding 6 resorts represented on their website. The lady told me I would find out my specific hotel after booking the dates. I explained to her that my family and I were not willing to stay at a standard hotel with a rectangular pool because the sales guy promised us and showed us pictures of the included resort locations with beautiful amenities including luxury pools that my family would enjoy. She said that was an upgrade and it was my choice if I wanted to upgrade or stay with the standard room that was provided. This was a lie and NOT what I was sold! My family and I were promised a Resort with all the amenities included. Not a standard Hampton Inn room. So in total, they were wanting to charge me $419 plus tax and a 2-3 hour timeshare presentation for my “free” luxury vacation. RUN as far away from these crooks as you can! If you do happen to get sucked into their lies, make sure you cancel within 30 days to get your money back. Unfortunately I waited too late.

When i purchase the package the sales man told me that you have to attend to a presentation which they did not explain that all the family had to attend if not you were going to charge a fee of a lot of dollars! This is bull…. i purchase the package at the mall And the men told me that one of us can attend not all had to! Please be aware before you purchase with blue green vacations!

If you're looking to avoid a scam, do not engage with Bluegreen Vacations' salesperson in Bass Pro Shops. They will lure you into a too good to be true deal by offering gift cards from AMEX and Bass Pro Shop in exchange for attending a timeshare presentation in one of their hotels. Don't fall for it - they will charge you $200 upfront with no cancellation options. Even if you try to cancel due to health issues, they'll still charge you a $99 cancellation fee. The website has no cancel button for hotel bookings, and even their phone support is unhelpful and unavailable on weekends. We regret not reading reviews prior to our booking and advise others to do the same. It's unfortunate that Bass Pro Shop is associated with business that harass people and has such deceitful practices.

My husband was approached at a bass pro shop to take advantage of a “free stay” at one of Blue Green’s resorts in exchange to listen to two- hour presentation. We chose to travel to Williamsburg, VA to stay at company’s resort at Patrick Henry Square. I knew going in that we were not going to purchase a timeshare and we held fast to that. While the sales rep was professional and pleasant, her manager was extremely condescending and could not seem to grasp why we were unwilling to finance a $17,000 vacation package over 10 years at 17 percent, as well as pay $1,000 in yearly maintenance fees. We walked out of there after 2 1/2 hours with a $100 gift card which we spent on souvenirs in Colonial Williamsburg. I wish I had read the reviews about this company before attending presentation so I would have had more ammunition in presenting my argument in why we did not wish to purchase. In general, do your research before making the decision to buy one of these timeshares. I am so glad that we did not purchase.

I booked a reservation for St. Petersburg Beach months ago, understanding that this was a holiday weekend. I was promised a beach front location at purchase. I received multiple conformation e-mails that stated the check in location was 5501 Gulf Boulevard Suite 106, St. Petersburg Beach, FL 33706. Today; two days prior to my check in, I received a call stating that our stay would be in Carillon. I live in St. Petersburg and I am closer to the beach than Carillon. I am extremely upset that our holiday weekend is now essentially ruined as a result of Blue Green vacation. I called and spoke with Jason at 9:08 this morning. The call lasted 16 minutes long. He was not helpful. I asked to speak with a supervisor and he told me that I could not speak with one. He later said that I could put in for a supervisor request but the callback window was 72 hours and there was no guarantee that someone would call me back. I called back and spoke with a woman who put me on hold for 20 minutes and then said there was nothing she could do for me. If this is the kind of treatment that I receive from BlueGreen vacations, why would I ever consider purchasing a timeshare?
