Are timeshare owners happier because of timeshare exchange?
Owners use timeshare vacations as a fun family summer getaway or spring golfing trip to Florida. However, timeshare owners may not realize that they can actually go to more destinations and get even more value from their vacation ownership investments. One of the ways savvy timeshare owners do this is through timeshare exchange. As a long-time supporter of timeshare owner interests, SFX Resorts offers timeshare exchange to those who want to vacation at high-quality, high-demand resorts.
Maximizing Timeshare Ownership Value
Like most timeshare owners, you probably exchange your week to different destinations most years. Some years, you may wish to travel with additional family or friends on your vacation exchange, and if you own a one-bedroom unit, you will need a two-bedroom unit for your additional guests. As an SFX Gold Member, you may request a one-size larger unit for only a $199 upgrade-fee, enabling you to bring your guests with you. However, if you are an SFX Diamond member, the upgrade fee is waived, saving you $199. This is one of many money-saving benefits of being an SFX Diamond Member. You will save more than the cost of the membership, adding further value to your purchase.
Rather than you being restricted to the resorts of just one exchange company, SFX Preferred Resorts is a network of strategic-alliances opening up the vacation-market, giving you access to request quality resorts listed in all major exchange networks.
SFX…saving you money, with greater flexibility and giving you more choices.

How To Pick Timeshare Exchanges
If you want to do more with your vacation ownership investment, picking a timeshare exchange will give you new possibilities. Over the years, SFX has learned what timeshare owners value and how to make sure timeshare exchanges work in favor of the owner.
When joining a new timeshare exchange, think about the following:
- How much does it cost to join?
- Do they offer personalized concierge services?
- What is the average rating of their resorts?
- Have you called their customer service number and reached a person?
