From traditional snowy wonderlands to ‘fun in the sun’ beachside retreats, RedWeek’s top 10 resorts for the winter travel season have something for everyone. The curated list is derived from a comprehensive analysis of rental booking volumes and customer inquiries on the RedWeek platform. Among the top picks are Marriott’s Crystal Shores in Marco Island, FL, Marriott’s Summit Watch in Park City, UT and Marriott’s Ko Olina Ocean Club on Oahu, each offering a unique blend of luxury and local charm.
International destinations making this year’s top 10 are The Royal Sands in Cancun, Mexico, Grand Luxxe at Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta, Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico, and the most popular destination, Marriott’s Aruba Surf Club in Palm Beach, Aruba.
RedWeek’s timeshare marketplace boasts a vast array of rentals, ideal for spur-of-the-moment escapes. Most properties are part of renowned resort brands, so guests are assured of consistently high quality and safety standards.
Timeshare rentals are especially appealing for groups and families due to their home-style accommodations, offering larger spaces and often featuring full or partial kitchens—amenities typically unavailable in standard hotels. Guests can also access resort-like amenities such as concierge services, on-site spas and pools, and regular housekeeping. And because travelers rent directly from the owner, they aren’t required to attend mandatory sales meetings.
The unique feature of RedWeek is the direct booking capability it offers. Timeshare owners list their properties on the platform, facilitating a streamlined and seamless booking process. RedWeek’s involvement in managing the transaction and rental agreement adds an extra layer of security and ease for timeshare owners and renters.
Most timeshare owners want to recoup their annual fees, so rates are extremely competitive compared to a hotel or private home, particularly when considering what’s included. The properties on the Top 10 all have something special about them, from cozying up to the roaring fire in your two-bedroom Vail villa to teeing off while overlooking the Pacific in Newport Beach.
