Vacation Club resorts are seen as close-knit communities where families can reconnect, with each other and with others, at a pace and in a space you just can't find in traditional hotel surroundings. Accommodations are ample enough to suit everyone, with exclusive amenities such as washers and dryers, multiple television sets and DVD players. And many Vacation Club resorts provide coveted facilities such as golf courses, spas, multiple pools and activities centers. But if you still would like to stay in a hotel, you can do that, too. Simply exchange your week(s) for Marriott Rewards points that can be redeemed for hotel stays – or airline tickets, cruises, rental cars and more. |
