Hi
@mrothwell ,
Welcome to TUG
1 ) Vidanta Resorts are great to visit & I can understand why you wish to go back regularly .
2 ) Vidanta is difficult to buy resale - because they have designed their contracts to have high transfer fees.
{ I can add information on that in a subsequent post if needed }
3 ) Vida Sales (Vidanta) includes various "clubs" in contract presentations to add options . This allows you to use your registered week ownership at Vidanta resorts ; AND potentially go elsewhere for more vacations .
4) The current " clubs" I am aware of are run by - Arrivia & HSI
*Hawaii Club - designed & managed by HSI ( Holiday Systems International) which is owned by Vacation Innovations.
*Club Freedom - designed & managed by Arrivia ( formerly ICE / International Cruise & Excursions) -(Arriva also owns Redweek as of 2022)
* Third Home is also included as an exchange option for Deluxxe - Grand Luxxe & the Estates purchases.
It is an interesting boutique exchange.
{Previous Grand Luxxe & other brand contracts likely included SFX weeks;
older Mayan Palace ownerships were sold with RCI access( and/ or HSI access for a period around 2010);
and Grand Mayans may also have access to SFX and / or Intervals International (depending on when sold.}
The companies running the "clubs" are in the timeshare universe and have worked with Vidanta for many years.
In my opinion - these club options may work, but I wouldn't consider them a reason for buying.
In my opinion -It might work better to simple.buy a resale low cost "trader" in Intervals to use for exchanging into resorts that
your Wyndham ownership (and it's included RCI membership) cannot access in Hawaii and elsewhere.
Your Wyndham / RCI access will allow access to a Vidanta exchange once every 3 years (add resort fee to Vidanta due at check / current rules)
Also you may want to look in TUG Marketplace (free) and join
www.Redweek.com ($ 20 or so) and rent Vidanta weeks from existing owners.
