Please log in to view the Member's Only area. Vacation Club : a multi destination holiday club giving members the right to use accommodation which is owned or leased by the club for the benefits of its members for a specified period.
Membership to the Lion Resorts Vacation Club is for 30 years, meaning that it is governed by European "timeshare" legislation.
The concept of timeshare began in Europe in the 1960s as an innovative way for increasing holiday choice. Instead of booking a week or two at a resort every year, or purchasing a holiday property outright, timeshare offers holidaymakers the ability to buy rights of occupancy in a property, typically in multiples of one week, for either a set period or in perpetuity. It puts a holiday home within reach of millions who could never afford to buy a property. Once consumers have purchased their holiday time, they can choose to use it themselves, pass it to friends or relatives, or rent it out. But while there is total flexibility over who uses the holiday time, the basic timeshare product lacked the flexibility of when and where it could be taken.
Consumers’ demand for greater flexibility led to the growth of exchange systems such as RCI and Interval International. These allow the owner to exchange their timeshare week for either another week at the same resort or for a week in another resort within the exchange network, which has now grown to over 6,000 resorts in more than 100 countries.
With the problem of quality accommodation solved by the original concept of timeshare and the flexibility issue resolved by the introduction of exchange organisations, timeshare holidays are now the choice of over 6.5 million people worldwide. But whilst quality and flexibility are important parts of your holiday selection, they are not the only things that matter.
The Lion Resorts Vacation Club aims to complete the holiday package by offering members the services they would normally expect from a travel agent: reserve flights, arrange car hire, book excursions and even organise events for special occasions.
However our members decide to take advantage of their benefits, the one item that remains constant is their trust. Trust in actually attaining their desires, or more plainly, getting 'what they want, when they want it'. Members trust Lion Resorts to continually deliver a personal, professional service, tailored to their individual requirements.
Add to this the possibility to book additional weeks at any of the resorts in the Lion Resorts portfolio, the flexibility to exchange your membership through the world’s largest exchange organisations and our dedicated Member Services department who are on hand to assist you with any aspect of your membership and it’s easy to see why Lion Resorts is fast becoming one of the most popular vacation clubs in Europe!
