Unlike timeshare ownership that typically involves restrictive contracts, the flexibility of a vacation membership program allows you to choose when and where you prefer to travel. In the 1960s, “timeshare” referred to a deeded property that could be used by the owner within a certain time frame. The timeshare industry has since made a transition toward a right-to-use or points-based model, which does not translate to direct ownership; however, timeshare owners are typically required to pay maintenance fees for and interest on the property they pay to visit.
In contrast to timeshares, vacation club memberships do not involve property ownership in any form. Rather than having to pay maintenance or property fees, members purchase a package level at an affordable one-time cost and enjoy reduced travel rates and added benefits, like concierge services, reward points programs, and guest passes. A vacation club membership usually costs less than purchasing a timeshare and doesn’t saddle members with difficult exit clauses or the burden of selling off any shares of ownership.
