Resorts Are Sold Out of Christmas and New Year's Weeks - But Still Available on RedWeek.com
SEATTLE, Nov. 13, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Marriott, Westin, and other major resorts in popular destinations like Hawaii, Aruba, and Cancun are nearly all sold out of their holiday inventory, but there's a loophole for last-minute travelers: timeshare rentals by-owner on RedWeek.com.
In order to snag prime Christmas and New Years' time, timeshare owners either had to pay a premium on their original purchase to get guaranteed holiday weeks, or had to book as much as 13-months in advance. Travelers are benefitting from these owners' diligence – often at a significant discount over what they would have paid by booking with the resort direct.
The top 5 resorts booked on RedWeek.com for Christmas and New Year's travel in 2018 are:
- Marriott's Maui Ocean Club, Maui, Hawaii
- Westin Ka'anapali Ocean Resort, Maui, Hawaii
- Marriott's Ko Olina Beach Club, Oahu, Hawaii
- Marriott's Aruba Surf Club, Aruba
- Westin Lagunamar Ocean Resort Villas & Spa, Cancun
As of November 12, Marriott is nearly sold out of Maui Ocean Club Christmas weeks on their website – with only remaining one-bedroom units priced at $648/night. RedWeek still has a selection of unit sizes at a 34% discount - owners' prices start at just $429/night.
Marriott's Aruba Surf Club is completely sold out on Marriott's website, and they have only a few studios left for New Year's. Meanwhile, on RedWeek, there are nearly two hundred Christmas and New Years' Weeks still available by-owner.
Westin Lagunamar Ocean Resort Villas & Spa in Cancun still has limited Christmas weeks left with prices starting at $383/night for a basic hotel-style unit, when renting from them directly. RedWeek members can access a broader selection of dates and unit-sizes, while saving about 40% renting by-owner – units start at just $229/night.
Considered one of travel's best-kept-secrets, word is getting out. With last year's introduction of the RedWeek Payments platform, where travelers can book their vacation online with a credit card and payment protection, RedWeek has already seen a 35% increase in Christmas and New Year's bookings for 2018. Due to high demand for the service, the company is working on rapidly expanding accommodating online booking for all rental weeks.
