Preparing for your timeshare stay ensures a smooth arrival and a stress-free vacation. Timeshares operate differently from traditional hotels, so knowing what to expect helps you plan ahead.
Review Your Booking Details
Before you travel, make sure you have:
- Your confirmed RedWeek booking
- The exact check-in and check-out dates
- Resort address and contact information
- Any updates sent by RedWeek regarding your reservation
Confirm What the Resort Provides
Most timeshares include:
- Full or partial kitchens
- Separate living and sleeping areas
- Laundry facilities (in-unit or onsite)
However, supplies vary by resort. Check what is included:
- Kitchen basics (cookware, dishes, utensils)
- Starter supplies (paper towels, dish soap, toiletries)
- Linen and towel service frequency
Some timeshares do *not* offer daily housekeeping.
Understand Resort Policies
Before your stay, review:
- Check-in and check-out times
- Age requirements for the primary guest
- Parking rules and vehicle restrictions
- Pet policies (most timeshares do not allow pets)
- Smoking rules
These details help you avoid delays or additional fees.
Plan for Resort Fees or Deposits
Have a credit or debit card ready for:
- Resort fees
- Parking charges
- Local taxes
- Refundable security deposits
These are collected directly by the resort and are not included in your RedWeek payment.
Bring the Right Documents
Make sure you have:
- A government-issued ID that matches the reservation name
- Your RedWeek booking confirmation
- Any resort-specific instructions provided before travel
If your name has changed or contains special characters, notify RedWeek early.
Check Amenities and Activities Ahead of Time
Resorts often offer:
- Pools, hot tubs, gyms
- Scheduled activities
- Children’s programs
- Transportation options
These may require reservations or additional fees during busy seasons.
Special Requests
Timeshares generally do not guarantee:
- Specific unit numbers
- Floor levels
- Views
- Early check-in or late check-out
Requests may be accommodated when possible but are not guaranteed.
If You Need Assistance Before Travel
Contact RedWeek if:
- Your check-in instructions seem unclear
- The resort cannot locate your name
- You need clarification about fees or required documents
Preparing ahead ensures your arrival is quick, easy, and hassle-free.
