I just got this today. Seems MVCI wants to know info on all non-owner 'guests' to pitch them ownership presentations (as well as potentially dissuade owners from renting out their units).
"Reportedly, if this is not done the guest will have issues checking in and can even be rejected and the reservation canceled. This appears to be because Marriott wants the guest information to offer them a Timeshare tour when they stay with them. So the first portion of the form is all the guest personal information which they verify when they check in. The second part of the form are for you the owner to agree too and you can see the questions here:
The Owner identified above hereby submits this Guest Form and provides the following certifications and acknowledgments:
1 - I have obtained consent from the Guest to provide Marriott Vacation Club International and its affiliates (“MVCI”) the required Guest information.
2 - I have advised the Guest of MVCI’s Global Privacy Statement and agree to hold harmless and indemnity MVCI for any claim by the Guest relating to MVCI’s collection and use of the Guest information.
3 - Guest name and contact information provided are accurate and I have advised the Guest that, should MVCI be unable to verify the Guest information prior to arrival, the Guest will not be allowed to check-in.
4 - I have advised the Guest that the Guest must check-in at the front desk of the property with valid identification and a valid credit card.
5 - I am responsible for any damages to the property caused by the Guest and others associated with the Guest.
6 -If I do NOT stay at the property, I will not receive Marriott Bonvoy Elite night credits in conjunction with this stay.
7 - If I do stay at the property, I will not receive Marriott Bonvoy Elite night credits unless I present valid identification and check-in at the front desk.
8 - Commercial use of accommodations, use period or related benefits, including but not limited to a pattern of rental activity, is prohibited under the applicable reservation or exchange procedures and may result in cancellation of reservations. I certify that this reservation is not for any commercial purpose, and I hereby release MVCI and its affiliates from any and all liability relating to or arising from any such reservation cancellation.
Please choose one of the follow:
1 - I intend to stay at the property for substantially the full length of the stay according to the confirmation details.
2 - I DO NOT intend to stay at the property for substantially the full length of the stay according to the confirmation details.
