The January RedWeek newsletter offers ideas to revolutionize this year’s timeshare vacation.
If you’re tired of taking the same vacation every year: skiing in the same mountains, sitting by the same pool, or hitting the links at the same golf courses, check out these 3 timeshare destinations that are anything but ordinary.
1. Marriott’s Phuket Beach Club, Thailand. This timeshare resort sits on the renowned Mai Khao beach at the heart of Thailand’s largest island and tourism jewel, Phuket Island (see top photo).
It’s a great place for a winter vacation, with average daily temperatures in the 80s (F). Near the southernmost point of Phuket Island is Laem Promthep (Brahma’s Cape), a popular sunset viewing point.
A timeshare rental at Marriott’s Phuket Beach Club is currently just $229/night. Resales here start at $4,000.
2. Borgo di Vagli, Italy. Located in Mercatale Cortona, Tuscany, Borgo di Vagli is the first fully-restored 14th century Tuscan village available on the timeshare market.
It maintains as faithfully as possible its medieval feel, atmosphere and look, without compromising modern day comforts and needs.
As part of a large Protected Area, Borgo di Vagli is nestled among its own olive groves, fruit trees and ancient oaks, and also offers some of the most breathtaking panoramic views in all of Tuscany.
Borgo di Vagli timeshare rentals start at just $171/night.
3. Marriott’s Marbella Beach Resort, Spain. Located on southern Spain’s famed Costa del Sol, Marbella is an international vacation destination. It sits on the Mediterranean between the town of Malaga and the Strait of Gibraltar.
In Marbella you’ll rub elbows with many of the world’s aristocrats, celebrities, and wealthy people. When you want a break from the golden beaches, tour the Golden Mile, a stretch of four miles between Marbella and Puerto Banús, on which are located some of the most luxurious residences in Marbella, such as the Palace of King Fahd.
Marriott’s Marbella Beach Resort timeshare rentals start at just $143/night. Resales start at $1200.
