New Taxes on Housekeeping
Effective January 1, 2017, occupancy tax will be assessed on housekeeping charges at several WorldMark resorts. If a reservation is confirmed that requires collection of a cash housekeeping charge, an assessed tax will be added to the housekeeping amount and will be calculated based on a percentage of the housekeeping cost. The percentages range from 8-17% and will vary by resort. Free housekeeping services will not be subject to this tax. As of January 1, housekeeping taxes will be collected in full at the time of booking at the impacted resorts.
Please note that WorldMark does not retain any portion of these taxes. We simply collect these monies on behalf of the local tax authority. The rates are determined by each individual tax authority and are subject to change at any time.
For information on rates for a specific resort, please refer to the
Tax Information page in the
Online Reference Library.
