Vacation timeshares - additional information
A traditional vacation timeshare is a property that is owned by a number of different people, usually 25, and their ownership of the property reserves them a period of time to use the accommodation, usually two weeks per year.
The industry has developed systems to allow owners more flexibility in their choice of accommodation and destination, in order to make the prospect of timeshare ownership seem less restrictive.
