Anantara membership

I’m staying at an Anantara property in September. Booked it via their Vacation Club sales team which was being promoted by the HDFC Imperia concierge of all people.

I can refer you when I’m there if that helps.
They do have some gate-keeping criteria I’ve read.

I wrote a thread about this on super premium cards group i think a while back. Please cancel if possible, it was such a horrible experience.
Get ready to be bombarded with sales pitch for 15000 USD throughout trip, and if you say "leave me alone", they will treat you like dirt. Only option is to put up with it for 2 nights and get like few hours of privacy in a day because they will be there in the restaurant too.

Booked through same HDFC 3 page stupid PDF which does not warn anything about this. Also once u land in vietnam airport, you can actually see stalls of them which offers exactly same deal, HDFC is not doing any favour. You could be a nobody and still get the same deal unfortunately
 
So quick update here. I had a surprisingly pleasant stay at their property. There was the presentation of course, but that was a small part just a day before checkout. They were pushy in the presentation just as any salesperson would be but nothing beyond that. They were happy to take no for an answer. There was no change in the attitude of people in the resort otherwise. so overall a very happy experience at a very reasonable cost. Very good value proposition if I look at it now.

Their base membership was ~18k USD for 30 years with 6000 points per year. That would have come down to 15k if pushed I think.

The deal I got for this stay was 300 USD for three nights for the two bedroom suite with breakfast.
