Hilton Grand Vacations is currently offering a decent vacation package that requires attending a two-hour timeshare presentation. You get 3 nights of lodging in one of several specific locations plus 75,000 Hilton Honors points for as low as $249 + tax.
Nick once did a Bluegreen Vacations timeshare presentation and felt great about the deal. The presentations itself are lengthy but, if you’re able to get your “no” face on and can use travel to one of the included locations, this could be a pretty good deal.

Quick Thoughts
Hilton Grand Vacations comes out with variations on this basic offer somewhat regularly. This particular one is good for stays in Orlando, Las Vegas, Myrtle Beach or New York City; the one caveat being that the NYC package gets you one less night’s lodging.
In exchange for agreeing to attend a 2-hour timeshare presentation, you get 3 nights lodging (2 in NYC) and 75,000 Hilton Honors Points for $249/$299+tax (and an additional $19.95 for changes made up to 30 days prior to arrival). You buy the package now and then have 12 months from the date of purchase to use it, but you can’t check in sooner than 30 days after purchase. Note that the points will not post until after you travel, so you won’t get them instantly.
Our reasonable redemption value for Hilton Honors Points is .48 cents per point, so you’re getting around $370 in value from the points alone. Throw in four nights’ lodging and the deal gets interesting, especially if you need travel to one of the included destinations.
Timeshare presentations are notorious for being somewhat exhausting affairs. To prepare, it’s probably helpful to read Stephen Pepper’s Timeshare Presentation Survival Guide: Get your “No” face on.

It’s 3 nights in FL and SC and 2 nights in NY, you state – in 1 instance – 4 and 3.
