I guess I am going to sound a bit negative here, but your "guests" are not guests if they are paying for the room, IMHO. Now, if they invited themselves along, and you felt you had no choice, then charge them, or else they will always be inviting themselves and using your points. It all depends upon who invited whom. Generally, my "guests" pay for our food, but if they don't, it's no biggie. I absolutely draw the line at people inviting themselves, so I find it easy to say no. The only exception are my children, who often invite themselves along on our trips, which is OK, since they helped buy the points that are part of my contract.
i have to agree with you completely!! we have invited friends of ours and their children for our trip in sept. we invited them! they did not invite themselves and they are not tag-alongs. we enjoy their company & we love them like family. they are our guests. i have also reserved a studio along with our 2bdrm villa to accomodate the babysitters we decided to bring so that we could have a few nites without the young kids. my friend & i split the cost of bringing them & we split the costs of all the extras we will be doing: tours, special dinners, MNNSHP, etc.
