Winter Fun at White Point

Posted by White Point Vacation Club Team on June 17th, 2009
Last winter my Mom, Dad, our two dogs and I were going to White Point Beach. At the last minute my ‘best friend’ was able to join us. Off we drove excitedly. When we arrived the weather was great! After we unpacked in our room my friend and I shared, we made sure all of our stuffed animals and blanket tent was set up.
Then we went off in the Beach Bus which was Way Cool to the main lodge. We fed the bunnies, walked along the beach, played pool, and swam for hours. We took the Beach Bus back to our cottage. My Mom who is a great cook made us a delicious and healthy meals. The trip was too short, so we invited my friend to come with us again next time.
She jumped with joy!
We stayed in Cottage #301 - March 28 and 29, 2009

V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N Anytime, Anywhere!

Posted by White Point Vacation Club Team on June 9th, 2009

The following article was taken from http://my-vacations-trip.com/623131-V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N-Anytime-Anywhere.html, Enjoy!

Webster’s dictionary defines vacation as “a period of time for pleasure, rest, or relaxation”. Most vacationers, however, aren’t aware of this definition, as they often return from their trip feeling less relaxed than when they left! Luckily, more and more people are discovering that Webster’s definition of “vacation” is synonymous with timeshare ownership. Here’s why:

Timeshare owners enjoy the privacy of a home with the amenities of a world-class resort! Timeshare owners know that their timeshares provide better value than renting hotel rooms. Timeshare owners are less burdened than full-time vacation homeowners.

According to the American Resort Development Association’s (ARDA) recent study, most timeshare owners believe that their timeshares are better than hotels. In fact, when asked about their overall satisfaction with their timeshare property, 78% of the timeshare owners rated their property as “excellent”. When timeshare owners were asked if they were getting good value for their money, 72% of the owners rated their properties as “excellent”, compared to 58% of those who stayed in hotels.

Mike Hussey, ARDA’s Chief of Staff, confirms that this is due to new trends in vacation ownership over the past several years. “Timeshare owners are more satisfied with their overall vacation experience and feel that they get good value for their hard-earned money,” says Mr. Hussey. In fact, the numbers back him up. In 1980, only about 155,000 households owned a timeshare at 500 resorts worldwide. Today, there are over 5,000 timeshare resorts with 4.5 million vacation owners worldwide. It seems as though more people ARE learning to “vacation”!

Besides receiving better value, timeshare owners also appreciate the benefits that come with part-time vacation home ownership. On an average, vacation homes in the United States are used 17 nights per year! Unless the owner uses this property a lot, they are paying way too much for a vacation home that does not provide much utility. They’re paying full time for a part time vacation. Year round vacation homeowners spend more for maintenance costs (even when they are not there), and spend more of their valuable “vacation” time on upkeep.

Life’s too short not to enjoy great vacations. You work too hard to deserve anything less! Your free time is your own. When you do discover the definition of vacation, we hope that you’ll practice what you learn, and practice often… as practice makes perfect.

Spring Tutorial “packed” with Tips and Tastes!

Posted by White Point Vacation Club Team on June 9th, 2009

Kevin McEachern from RCI reviews RCI features and programs.With more than 60 Vacation Club Members in the house over the May 22 - 24 Weekend under sunny skies, we had a great Tutorial Weekend.

The morning interactive Vacation Club Basics session was well attended with a great deal of “destination surfing” going on!

Of course, the Vacation Club exclusive “Chef’s Magic” BBQ session was well subscribed as Chef Alan shared some of his tips and samples of his work from the deck of the Beach Club Grill - a terrific reward after the learning in the morning.

In the afternoon, Kevin from RCI provided a fantastic run down of RCI and how to get the most from your membership…plus many, many answers to Owners Questions. Donna Hatt from the Resort also provided some of the new features owners can enjoy this upcoming summer.

Of course, knowing that Sommelier Dan Tanner would be serving up a variety of wines in his “Off the Vine” Wine Tasting, the Tutorial day wrapped up just in time so everyone could get their seats for a tasting extravaganza.

All in all…it was another great day at White Point!

Vacation Club at White Point - “Top 10 Reasons for Owning”

Posted by White Point Vacation Club Team on May 18th, 2009

Recently an article came across our desk from timeshare.org that we thought we’d share with our Vacation Club Owners about the Top 10 Reasons peole enjoy their timeshare…

Quality - timeshare offers superior accommodation at top of the range resorts with excellent on-site facilities such as golf courses, leisure complexes, tennis courts and spas. In fact, a 2006 survey amongst timeshare owners showed that 96% of owners say that timeshare is better than other self catering holidays.

More than just a hotel room – timeshare accommodation tends to be far more spacious than other accommodation types. Apartments range in size from studios - sleeping 2 - to 3 bedded apartments – sleeping 8 - with 3 bathrooms, kitchen and sizeable living/dining room. Some may even have a private sauna or pool.

The world’s your oyster - you’re not restricted to going to the same resort each year. Through the exchange system, a global network of accommodation will give you access to some of the most beautiful places in the world.

It’s family orientated – as well as kids’ clubs, nannies, play facilities, many resorts offer exceptional entertainment for both children and adults such as bands, magicians, dancers and local art and cultural events.

Flexibility - with the advent of points, timeshare is more flexible than ever and you can take a number of short breaks instead of a week or two week holiday.

Versatility – it’s not just cottages, villas, apartments and lodges that are available to stay at if you own timeshare. How about a catamaran, a house boat, a cruise ship, a canal boat or even an RV (recreational vehicle)?

It’s hassle free – unlike owning a property outright, the maintenance of the resort is taken care of by the management company, so owners are free to relax and enjoy their holidays.

Price - you’re paying for tomorrow’s holidays at today’s prices!

It’s personal – many owners like to go back to resorts they know well to meet up with friends they have made over the years.

Pass it on to your children – timeshare can be bequeathed in your will so your children can continue to enjoy your timeshare.
