Timeshares Around the World

Vacationers throughout the world are searching for prime destinations for their next trip. But what many don't realize is how they can actually book timeshares around the world in some of the most popular tourist regions – giving travelers all of the conveniences of home that they desire while visiting their favorite country.

An international timeshare gives you access to wonderful, exotic locales and you can select the resort which best suits your needs. This will enable you to relax in a world-class resort at the perfect time of the year, while maintaining the same high standards you have come to expect from a timeshare vacation.

Nearly 5,000 timeshare resorts are located amongst the six inhabited continents (sorry Antarctica fans) with close to 20 million owners across the nations. Timeshare owners often venture outside the U.S. to fulfill their bucket list destinations, whether it is skiing the Canadian Rockies, lounging on the beach in Cancun, basking on Spain’s Costa del Sol or even traveling Down Under to Australia.

Guarantee an overseas vacation by using your timeshare, or by working with an exchange company such as RCI, Interval International or 7Across. As many as 4,000 timeshare resorts are on offer globally through timeshare exchange. Featuring some of the best timeshares in the world, any owner can place their ownership in an exchange program and visit the country of their dreams.

Top Global Timeshare Destinations by Country

Just about every country has something unique to offer travelers. Iconic destinations like the Canadian side of Niagara Falls, Mexico’s Mayan pyramids of Chichen Itza, the famed Alhambra in southern Spain and the Eiffel Tower in Paris can only truly be appreciated in person.

Certain destinations have become magnets for timeshare development. Cancun and the Riviera Maya region along the eastern coast of Mexico has some of the best international timeshare resorts on the planet, while the Whistler area in western Canada has long been a draw for skiers and snowboarders. Asian destinations such as Thailand have emerged because of its fascinating mixture of culture and beaches in places like Phuket and Koh Samui.

With the number of global timeshare brands in the industry, and the points programs they manage, booking travel internationally in a timeshare is as simple as ever. Marriott Vacation Club, Hilton Grand Vacations, Club Wyndham, Westin and WorldMark are just a few of the major timeshare companies with resorts beyond the U.S.

Vacationers traveling internationally are looking for many of the same features – amazing beaches, historic and cultural experiences, outdoor adventures and different cuisines. These countries can provide this, and more.

Canada Timeshares

By looking for a global timeshare by country, you may be surprised at the towns and locations in Canada that actually have timeshare resorts. For instance, did you know that you can vacation in a timeshare in the heart of Vancouver?

Whistler naturally comes to mind when searching for Canada timeshares, but Victoria is also a hidden gem in British Columbia as are the verdant forests located on Vancouver Island. There are other major metropolitan areas offering great experiences, such as Toronto and Quebec City, so look for a Canada timeshare holiday that will give you the experience of a lifetime.

The cultural highlights of Quebec City bring North Americans as close to Europe as possible without leaving the continent. Apart from the French which is spoken here, the narrow streets and stone buildings are impressive, especially the Château Frontenac.

Several of the timeshares in the Toronto area are just north of town in the Georgian Bay area around Collingwood. A fabulous four-season spot, you can enjoy watersports, wineries and skiing at the nearby Blue Mountain Ski Resort.

Of course, any talk of winter sports starts with Whistler, home to the alpine sports during the 2010 Winter Olympics. Cosmopolitan Vancouver is one of the most diverse cities in the country, with Grouse Mountain on the north side offering terrific hiking. Check out the Gastown District for bars and dining, while Stanley Park is just beautiful with its beaches, gardens, bike trails and aquarium.

Mexico Timeshares

Mexico is second only to the Unites States for the number and popularity of timeshare resorts, and it’s easy to see why. Many of the best timeshares in the world are in the Cancun and the Riviera Maya region, which stretches along the Mexican Caribbean coastline from Cancun south through Playa del Carmen to Tulum. The island of Cozumel just off the coast is also a great option, especially for scuba divers.

Along the Pacific coast is where Mexico timeshares really got their start. Cabo San Lucas evolved from a small fishing village to become one of the premier resort destinations in Mexico. Acapulco may have the name recognition, but towns like Mazatlan and especially Puerto Vallarta have amazing resorts and the beaches, culture and natural attractions to match. And don’t forget Ixtapa, the resort town near Zihuantanejo, as a wonderful spot.

Puerto Vallarta is ultimately known for its beaches along Banderas Bay, but the natural attractions of the Sierra Madre Mountains make this one of the most diverse destinations in Mexico.
