The ones that come up again and again, answered plainly.
Not at all. You're renting a week from someone who already owns one. Nothing changes hands but the stay.
No. You arrive as a guest on the owner's reservation, not as a lead for the resort's sales floor.
Because a timeshare week is a fixed block of time. You're booking the block the owner holds, so it starts on a set day and runs a set length.
Yours. The owner arranges for the resort to hold the booking under the traveling guest's name.
Only up to the unit's limit. Each resort caps occupancy per unit and checks it at arrival.
The nightly rate times the nights, plus our service fee. Anything the resort charges on site, if it charges at all, is billed separately.
