Vacation Ownership Terminology
Vacation ownership is one of the most dynamic segments of the hospitality industry, having grown to $10 billion in annual U.S. sales.* Because it gives consumers the ability to purchase their future vacations in quality accommodations without the commitment and expense of owning a second home, interest in vacation ownership continues to grow, worldwide.
Today, millions of people choose vacation ownership as their preferred way to vacation. There is an offering to fit every prospective owner's needs, including various forms of traditional timesharing, fractional resorts, condo-hotels, and private residence clubs.
