Home Options--Star Options

Yes, HomeOptions and StarOptions have the same value. The only functional difference is that HomeOptions are for booking within the 12-8 month window at the Sheraton Flex home resorts.

At least that's my reading of this note received today from Starwood: "Your Home Options can be banked, by October 1, every year <3-star elite>, for a fee of $79. The Banked Home/StarOptions would expire December 31, two years past the year banked and can be used to confirm nights in ownership resorts up to eight months prior to your desired date of arrival. Banked Home Options, like Banked StarOptions, cannot be used to confirm a reservation 12-8 months prior to the arrival date, even when returning to your home resort in the season purchased. At eight months prior to your desired date of arrival, you may combine your Home Options with StarOptions from weeks packages to confirm reservations at SVN ownership resorts."
