Sell My Timeshare NOW and InnSeason Resorts® have teamed up to provide timeshare resale solutions for timeshare owners who want to resell timeshare they no longer use. InnSeason Resorts® is the popular New England timeshare resort brand, known as the creators of The Northeast Experience®. They have seven outstanding timeshare resorts and more than 30,000 timeshare owners.

As a customer service-savvy timeshare company, InnSeason Resorts® recognizes that needs change; the timeshare that was once ideal for a couple or a family may no longer be the right fit. Perhaps a family has grown or maybe they are empty nesters. Sometimes the climate or recreation activities a timeshare owner once loved may no longer be his or her favorite. And then there are all those other lifestyle reasons to want to resell timeshare. Marriage, divorce, relocation, job loss, illness, and any number of other events can lead a timeshare owner to want to sell timeshare. It all adds up to a need for strong and reliable timeshare resale services.

Sell My Timeshare NOW and InnSeason Resorts® are Working Together to Help Timeshare Owners

A reliable and vibrant timeshare resale market is critical to the overall health of the timeshare industry. As I said in Sell My Timeshare NOW‘s media release today, “Imagine where automobile dealers would be without a secondary marketplace to resell cars and you can see why timeshare owners, developers, and buyers of timeshare resales all win when Sell My Timeshare NOW works in partnership with great timeshare companies, such as InnSeason Resorts®.”

Reselling timeshare shouldn’t be a scary or shady proposition. Instead, timeshare owners deserve professional timeshare resales services. InnSeason Resorts® is making this easier for their timeshare owners to do by co-partnering with Sell My Timeshare NOW as their exclusive authorized timeshare reseller. Timeshare owners at InnSeason Resorts® can turn to Sell My Timeshare, knowing they will receive personalized attention to help them resell their InnSeason Resorts® timeshare.

Yes, there are pet friendly timeshares and they certainly make vacationing or traveling easier and more enjoyable for pet lovers who hate to holiday without their favorite furry companions.

Although a pet friendly timeshare resale or timeshare rental is not right for all animals, (some pets don’t travel well no matter what you do) for pets that can handle the change and additional stimulation of traveling, taking your pet along can be both personally rewarding and a great savings, too. The cost of boarding a pet quickly adds up, as does a pet sitter, or the payback you know is coming when you impose on a friend to care for your animal(s) during your absence.

Taking your pet along for the vacation and enjoying the benefits of a pet friendly timeshare means you don’t have to worry about the care you pet is receiving back home. Some pet friendly timeshare resorts offer services such as pet walking or pet grooming. These special benefits may be provided on site at the timeshare resort, or in conjunction with a nearby business. Resorts may also provide pet perks, such as feeding dishes, beds, or doggie treats, however many pet owners find that their animals adjust more quickly if they bring along these types of familiar items from home.

Even with Pet Friendly Timeshares, You Should Plan Ahead

While a number of resorts offer pet friendly timeshare accommodations, not all timeshare units at these resorts are designated for pet owner use. This means, even when you are planning a vacation at a pet friendly timeshare resort, you should be sure to notify the resort in advance and confirm that they have a pet owner’s unit available for you.

A few other tips to keep in mind are:

• Bring along your pet’s favorite food if he or she is a picky eater. You don’t want to spend valuable timeshare vacation days searching grocery stores for a specific brand of pet food.
• Bring a recent photo of your pet with you when you travel. In the unfortunate circumstance that your pet should get lost, you do want to be able to post some quick “lost pet” flyers that include his or her image.
• Remember that your beloved pet can be a source of fear, anxiety, or allergy to other people and be respectful of “their space”.
• If you travel by car, keep your pet on a leash every time you open the door. Even a mellow pet may act differently under the stress of travel. An open car door can be interpreted as an invitation to run.

Following these few simple tips can make your vacation at a pet friendly timeshare more enjoyable for your family including your four-footed family members. And in case you’ve ever wondered if other pet owners are as devoted to their pets as you are, here’s some interesting statistics from Forbes Magazine online:

“According to the National Pet Owners Survey, about 71 million U.S. households, or 62 percent, owned at least one pet in 2008, up from just 56 percent in 1988, the first year the survey was conducted. Money lavished on pets has increased at a far faster clip, to an estimated $45 billion this year (more than a third of which goes to food), nearly double the $23 billion spent just a decade ago.”

No, the seasonal holidays that typically give us all pause for reflection are not upon us quite yet, but they are close enough for me to begin looking at 2009, evaluating what an interesting year it has been. In the United States, 2009 brought a new President and new administration, a new economy that most of us hope resolves itself quickly and never returns, and a lot of new experiences for this country and the world at large. If challenge and adversity makes us stronger, then sadly, far too many people have had too many ‘character building’ experiences over the last 12 to 18 months.

Timeshare Sales and Timeshare Resales Improving their Services

Sell My Timeshare NOW has experienced a great number of changes. We’ve expanded our services, grown our business, and improved our business plans. I don’t mind telling you, none of it has been easy; change never is. As a timeshare resale and timeshare rental advertising company, we have been part of a timeshare industry in flux in a business climate undergoing major climatic change.

At the same time, many timeshare owners are finding their lives in flux as well. For some, the decision to buy timeshare, sell timeshare, rent timeshare, or use property as a timeshare rental is far more complicated than it would have been a few years ago. And these very issues are what motive us at Sell My Timeshare NOW to continually reevaluate our products and our services, striving to deliver real-world, workable solutions for both timeshare owners and the timeshare industry. The secondary market of timeshare resales should not be a challenge or a problem, but should be and CAN BE, an opportunity for families to enjoy and experience vacation ownership.

The Timeshare Industry and Timeshare Owners on the Bounce Back

As we all move forward toward a new year, I want to share with you some thoughts from a man who is both a legendary collegiate sports coach and a great motivator, John Calipari, currently the head coach of men’s basketball at the University of Kentucky.

In his recently released book, Bounce Back, Overcoming Setbacks to Succeed in Business and in Life, Calipari shares with readers the mindset that has helped him bounce back from crushing career lows lived out in the public eye to becoming the sports and motivational leader he is today. As he challenges readers to claim their “Second Life,” which he points out can be better than the first, he says, “Don’t allow your dreams to become daydreams.”

There are very few of us who don’t dream about spending more vacations with our friends and families; savoring more relaxing down time, and recharging our batteries with travel and new experiences. As time passes, people too often look back and wish they had spent more time with children, parents and siblings, and precious friends.

America is going to Bounce Back. Today’s hard times really can be the precursor of a second life, so pay close attention and don’t let your most meaningful dreams ebb away into only daydreams.

If you want to learn more about John Calipari’s life wisdom, you might want to sign up to follow his Twitter account, http://twitter.com/ukCoachCalipari. He’s admirers include nearly 1 Million Twitter followers on an account he opened late last April.

The elegant Royal Club at Bonnington Tower in Dubai, a prestigious residential, commercial, and timeshare community, has joined the Interval International collection of timeshare exchange resorts. Now, this highly sought resort/residential destination joins Royal Club at Palm-Jumeirah and Royal Club at Downtown Dubai as Dermarr Real Estate’s (owner of the Royal Club properties) third timeshare resort affiliated with Interval International. Both Royal Club at Palm-Jumeirah and Royal Club at Downtown Dubai are fully sold out properties.

More Dubai Timeshare Luxury

The showpiece Bonnington Tower is 40 stories of five-star luxury, featuring 30 spacious and elegantly furnished one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments and timeshare condos, six onsite restaurants and bars, 24/7 concierge service, and a host of amenities including hairdressers, the Leisure Deck with infinity pool, and a state-of-the-art gym exercise center. Located in the heart of Jumeirah Lakes Towers, Royal Club timeshare is near the Dubai Mall and the Mall of the Emirates, which features an indoor ski resort. The resort is also conveniently near the airport.

David Clifton, managing director for Interval International timeshare exchange says, “Interval International has worked with Royal Club in Dubai and its marketing partner for many years, and we’ve developed a relationship based on shared respect for quality product and service excellence. We have no doubt that the Royal Club at Bonnington Tower will be as valuable an addition to our network as the two other Royal Club resorts—Royal Club at Downtown Dubai and Royal Club at Palm, Jumeirah—have been.”

Interval International has been a recognized leader in timeshare exchange for more than thirty years. Today, the company includes a network of more than 2500 timeshare resorts in over 75 countries. Some 2 million member families enjoy timeshare exchange and timeshare services through Interval International.
