How Vacation Ownership Works
This simple concept offers owners a lifetime of wonderful
vacations. You make a one-time purchase of your furnished
villa, at a fraction of the total ownership cost, and pay
an annual maintenance fee. You own your vacation villa - but
only for the amount of time you plan to use it. During the
rest of the year, other families enjoy the accommodation for
their vacation and share the cost of your vacation home.
No matter where you choose to own within the MVCI system,
you are never 'locked' in to a single time or place where
you must go (unless of course that's just what you want).
Instead, you can take advantage of a variety of exciting program
options, with remarkable flexibility, to visit new destinations
and enjoy a wealth of first-class amenities.
The options for owners are as follows:
- Occupy home resort (in this case Marriott's Phuket Beach
Club)
- Exchange to another season in home resort or to another
MVCI resort worldwide (currently 52 resorts in 29 destinations)
- Exchange to one of over 1,900 additional Interval International
resorts worldwide
- Trade for Marriott Rewards? Program Points - a program
which offers the flexibility of earning your choice of valuable
points or miles for every dollar spent at over 2,300 hotels
worldwide. For MVCI owners, points can be traded every other
year for car rentals, Marriott hotel stays, cruises, airline
tickets and more.
Marriott Vacation Club International literally
puts the whole world at your doorstep with flexible options
to suit owners in accordance with their personal preferences
and changing schedules. The benefits of vacation ownership
are seemingly endless. Owners get to enjoy fabulous resorts
located in some of the most popular destinations around the
world, with accommodations that have all the comforts of home,
and incredible amenities.
Marriott Vacation Club International is the recognized
worldwide leader in Vacation Ownership with 52 resorts in
29 destinations. More than 200,000 vacation owners not only
benefit from the "Marriott vacation experience",
but also a flexible program with options such as priority
week(s) exchange within the MVCI portfolio, trading their
week(s) for Marriott Rewards? points or exchanging within
Interval International's global system of 1,900 resorts in
more than 75 countries.
