There are few destinations where joining a vacation club is more appealing than Cancun, Mexico. With its idyllic beaches, Caribbean Sea, natural wonders, historical vestiges and a great selection of restaurants, bars and nightclubs, it is a destination where you will want to visit more than once in a a lifetime.
There are a number of ways that you can benefit from vacation clubs in Cancun, a) by buying directly with a vacation club resort in Cancun b) exchanging a pre-existing timeshare through a vacation club like RCI or Interval International, or c) renting a timeshare privately from a member of a vacation club in Cancun.
Becoming a Member of a Cancun Vacation Club
Many top resorts in Cancun are also timeshare and fractional ownership destination clubs, whereby you can purchase as little as a week or as long as full ownership. In this way, you become an owner of your own slice of paradise at a particular resort. However, in almost all cases, your membership at the resort vacation club will enable you to exchange your timeshare or points membership for other destinations.
For example, Villa del Palmar Cancun, is a five star resort that offers vacation ownership. When you buy timeshare points or a week at Villa del Palmar Cancun, you can exchange your week for accommodation at Garza Blanca Resort in Puerto Vallarta and other destinations that have the Villa del Palmar brand. Furthermore, your timeshare membership at the resort gives you access to exchanges around the world through RCI international exchange network. So, while you may buy property in Cancun, you do not have to visit the same place every year, unless you wish to.
Exchanging a Pre-existing Timeshare
If you already have a timeshare in another location but wish to visit Cancun and take advantage of your investment, vacation club membership will allow you to exchange your timeshare for a resort in Cancun in accordance with how your unit is ranked. For example, RCI will give your timeshare a “trading power” which will determine what exchanges are available for your class of timeshare. In this way, joining a vacation club can open up the possibilities of what you can do with your original investment.
Timeshare Rentals in Cancun
Another way you can experience vacation clubs in Cancun is to rent a timeshare at a Cancun resort. You can do this by renting directly from an owner or by simply buying points directly with a vacation club. Depending on the vacation club, you do not have to purchase full membership with a club if you are unsure about making the full investment, but you can become a temporary member so that you can rent a timeshare unit.
