Hi All,

I am an unhappy owner of HGVC and I have never used the RCI properties. I am interested in seeing what properties are available but I can't seem to figure out how to get my hands on that information.

Can you please point me in the right direction?

Thanks for your help. :)

This is rather basic, but perhaps it'll help...
Do you have an online account on the member's website?
https://club.hiltongrandvacations.com/en/login#/index

1. When you sign-in, you land on a page with a link to RCI.
2. Midway down, click <Manage my RCI account.>
3. Hover over the "o^o RCI Exchange Vacations" tab.
4. Click <Exchange Vacations> to find the search page.
-- It says: "Browse the 2,403 RCI Affiliated Resorts."

I wonder the same as alwysonvac. Is there anything we can do to help? I absolutely love the flexibility of HGVC and have made some pretty fantastic trips with my fam that I don’t think we would have been able to do without timesharing (at least, not as comfortably or cost-effective).

To be honest, many if not most of RCI properties that are actually available for trade are not the same caliber as HGVC. With that being said, we have made a couple RCI trades that we’ve been happy with: Disney’s Saratoga Springs just 2 weeks ago and Stardust in Tahoe (location was prime, albeit accommodations were snug). We primarily use our HGVC points for Hawaii, but it does take planning to book 9 months out.
