Marriott International Inc.- What is a timeshare?
Timeshare provides you an opportunity to own a beneficial interest which correlates to a set amount of Vacation Club Points each year in a spectacular resort collection. Villas closely resemble condominium-style accommodations, ranging in size from 1 to 3 bedrooms.
Since becoming the first branded hospitality company to enter the timeshare industry in 1984, Marriott Vacation Club has created many luxurious properties in sought-after destinations around the globe—whether you like to golf or ski, Marriott Vacation Club has just the place for you!
Being an Owner with Marriott Vacation Club means flexibility to vacation the way you want—whether returning to the same resort or exchanging through membership in Interval International® to another resort within the Marriott network or to more than 2,400 resorts in 75 countries worldwide the choice is yours. You will even have the opportunity to trade your week(s) for Marriott Rewards® points that can be redeemed for stays at Marriott hotels worldwide or even for great travel rewards such as airline tickets, cruises and more. To find out more about Marriott Rewards, please visit MarriottRewards.com.
Join our family and experience what nearly 400,000 Owners have already discovered—the world of vacation opportunities that await you when you purchase a timeshare from Marriott Vacation Club!- How does a vacation at a timeshare resort differ from a traditional hotel stay?
While both help you to achieve your goal of fun and relaxation, timeshare resorts offer added space and amenities that help to make your vacation more comfortable for you and your family. While hotel and resort accommodations typically consist of one approximate 480-square-foot room sleeping a maximum of 4 people, Marriott Vacation Club villas more closely resemble a typical condominium boasting all the comforts of home.
Villas range in size from 1-, 2- and three-bedroom floorplans, each designed with décor unique to that destination. Typical villa features include fully equipped kitchen with granite countertops, spacious living and dining areas, master suite with king-sized bed and oversize shower, luxurious bedding, multiple televisions and DVD player(s), washer/dryer and a private balcony or patio.
Additionally, Marriott Vacation Club resorts provide the ultimate in world-class amenities and services. With so much to do at your resort, there's never any need to leave!- What type of timeshare ownership options are available?
When you purchase a timeshare from Marriott Vacation Club, in most cases you receive a deed—just as you would with a house. This means your own your vacations indefinitely and can be handed down to your heirs. Purchasing timeshare means having a lifetime of vacation flexibility.
- How much will my timeshare cost?
Prices vary depending on the number of Vacation Club Points purchased. Pricing starts at $15,000*. During your preview presentation, your Sales Executive will explain all the pricing options available.
*Prices are subject to change.
- Can I finance my timeshare purchase?
Make ownership of a lifetime of vacations affordable with financing options, available for qualified individuals, through Marriott Ownership Resort, Inc. Be sure to inquire about the financing options available at the time of purchase.
- Are there any additional expenses associated with my timeshare purchase?
In addition to the purchase price of your timeshare unit, you will be responsible for an annual maintenance fee. This fee ensures that your resort is professionally maintained (inside and out) to the standards that you come to expect from the Marriott name. When you purchase a deeded timeshare interest, you will also be responsible for your share of annual real estate taxes.
- What is expected of me during my preview presentation?
All we ask is that you simply have fun, ask lots of questions and keep an open mind. If married or living together, couples must attend the sales presentation together; individuals may purchase separately. Plus, if you have children, we have fun activities for them while you're enjoying your personal Preview.
