Thursday’s The Timeshare Authority congratulated Occidental Vacation Club, for receiving an RCI Gold Crown rating. (See: Occidental Vacation Club Receives RCI Gold Crown Rating). Occidental Vacation Club is a great example of a vacation ownership product that many people don’t realize exists: the all inclusive timeshare.

As a part of Occidental Hotels and Resorts (Madrid), Occidental is known for its beautiful, high-quality vacation properties. Yet Occidental is also part of a limited number of all inclusive timeshare and vacation club destinations that offer member/owners the opportunity to “vacation without their wallets.” Inherent in timeshare and vacation ownership is the advantage of pre-paying for years of vacations at a fixed price. Adding the component of all-inclusive resorts to this picture, as does Occidental, means vacationers can experience pre-paid vacations, right down to their meals and entertainment.

At Occidental Vacation Club, all-inclusive means unlimited meals and snacks and the opportunity to enjoy á la carte dining in specialty restaurants including unlimited alcoholic beverages. This literally means the chance to put away your credit card and cash, and enjoy eating and drinking without watching your dollars because the cost of wining, dining, celebrating, and indulging has already been covered in one, flat-rate fee.

But all-inclusive resorts go beyond food and beverage. They include sports and recreation. At  Occidental Vacation Club, this means tennis on lighted courts, water polo, aqua aerobics, kayaking at some destinations, the unlimited used of the fitness center, and much more. Daily entertainment and a supervised Kids Club, for vacationers between the ages of 4 and 12 are also included, along with live shows and nightly entertainment, as well as all of your taxes. On an Occidental Vacation Club getaway, even tipping and gratuities are included in your all-inclusive price.

As Luis Namnum, President of Occidental Vacation Club says, “Not only are we located in spectacular tropical areas with plenty of sun and fun, we also work hard to make every aspect of our all-inclusive vacations enjoyable for visitors from around the world.”

When it comes to vacationing, it probably never gets any easier than this.
