Swapping your Timeshare with Interval International
The leisure and travel industry is a market which is ever expanding and which continually gives people more and more options to organise their vacation time in economical and enjoyable ways. One of the ways that you can make your vacations less stressful is by joining a vacation club like Interval International.
Second largest vacation club in the world
Interval International is the second largest vacation club in the world, having just under two million members, and offers services which range from direct Timeshare exchanges to points swapping, and private residence clubs. They even often non-owner rentals. For around forty years Interval International has been collaborating with 2,800 resorts in over seventy five countries; they deal with only the most reputable Timeshare companies in the industry.
Timeshare Swaps
There are a few ways in which Interval International presents an attractive option for timeshare owners. Firstly, if you are a timeshare owner, Interval International enables you to perform a straight swap on a week for week basis: your usual timeshare destination for another place, or a swap of your Timeshare week for points that can be used flexibly.
Purchasing points
You can join the vacation club by buying points directly. When using the points system you can exchange the points you have purchased for accommodations, giving you more flexibility over where you stay, in what kind of unit and for how long. You can even carry over spare points from one year to the next and thereby have a more luxurious vacation in a larger unit, for example. You could also exchange your weeks or points for cruise vacations.
Extra services
If you don’t have a timeshare or have not yet bought points then you can, as a member, also rent timeshare properties offered up by other members. These short-term memberships are very often a stepping stone to full membership as it allows you to try out the membership in advance without long term commitment. In a similar way, as a points owner, Interval International also offers you the chance to use their services without sacrificing your points: you can simply buy another vacation.
Finally, when you become a member of Interval International you can also take advantage of the discounts they offer on flights and car rentals.
