OWNERS FAQS

Vacation credits (or credits) are the currency of the club. When you became a part of the club, you purchased a credit allocation, and these credits renew every year on your Anniversary Date (the first day of the month when you became an owner).

Credits are valid for two years. The credits only need to be part of an accepted reservation by their expiry date – the holiday does not need to have been taken. This means owners can book holidays at club properties right up to the day before expiry, for a date up to 13 months in advance.

Using credits, you have the flexibility to holiday at any club resort across 10 countries: Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Indonesia, Thailand, Japan, Hawaii (US), Germany, Italy and France. The number of credits required for a holiday depends on the resort, room type and season.

Using vacation credits

Booking is as simple as following these four easy steps: research your destination, choose the season and length of time, choose your room size and BOOK!

(sample credit chart and seasonality only)

Every Club Wyndham South Pacific resort has a unique credit chart with seasonal dates and corresponding credit values for each night. Peak seasons and resorts tend to have higher credit values and off-peak seasons and resorts tend to have lower values.

To take a longer holiday, Premier Owners of Club Wyndham South Pacific can save their credits from the previous year and borrow credits from the upcoming year (provided levies have been paid for the upcoming year).

When is a good time to holiday?

There are factors to consider when making a booking with your credits:

1. Resort location
2. Room type
3. Time of year
4. Day of the week

Some destinations that have higher demand due to their location will require more credits and you have a better chance of securing the dates you wish, the further out you book.

Larger or more prestigious apartments will generally require a higher number of credits while smaller or standard apartments will require fewer.

Peak periods of the year – for example, school holidays or Christmas – will generally require a higher number of credits, while non-peak periods will require fewer credits. The same is generally true for peak nights of the week – for example, Saturday – versus non-peak days of the week.

Each room type has its own credit chart and each resort has a ‘seasonality’ – a chart indicating what season it is:

1. Blue (low season)
2. White (mid-season)
3. Red (peak season) – further classified into Red 1 to 9

Red season bookings cost more than White season bookings, which cost more than Blue season bookings. For example, a 2-bedroom Sky Suite (room) at Club Wyndham Surfers Paradise (location) on a Monday (day of week) in RED 1 (seasonality) costs 4,000 credits.  The same room at Surfers Paradise on the same weekday during BLUE costs just 1,100 credits.

All owners can make a reservation beginning 13 months from the current date (only the first date needs to fall in that 13 months). If booking during Red 1 or Red 2 seasons, the reservation must be at least seven days if booked more than nine months out.

Some tips to better use your credits:

• Give a less popular resort or a less popular time a go – escape the crowds and save credits!
• If you really want to book a holiday in Red 1 or Red 2 (the peak times), then it’s important to book your holidays well in advance
• If you want to book during the school holidays, give the July holidays a go – they are a lot more affordable than Christmas and Easter
• Many resorts have good availability between May and August
• If the property you want is not available on the dates you require, go onto a waiting list and you will be notified if those dates become available

Red Season and 13 Month Booking Window Rule

1. When booking during Red Season (Red, Red 1 and Red 2), the below restrictions apply:

• • • Bookings made more than 9 months in advance have a minimum 7 nights stay. The seven nights can be split across two or more resorts, assuming the seven nights are consecutive (Note: bookings cannot extend past 13 months prior to stay as the standard booking window still applies.
    • Bookings made within 9 months of stay have no minimum night stay required.

2. Vacation Credit reservations may be made up to 13 months prior to the requested arrival date, and may extend beyond 13 months if the stay is continuous and uninterrupted with the exclusion of any consecutive reservations where segments are booked at 2 or more Resorts during Red Season (“Grouped                    Reservation”). When Owners make a Group Reservation, the first night of stay at each resort in a Grouped Reservation must fall within 13 months from the              date that Grouped Reservation is made.

3. Any changes to bookings where the new arrival date is outside the original 13 month booking window will result in cancellation and require a new reservation.

7 Night Minimum

A seven-night minimum stay applies if you book in Red Season/ Red Season 1/ Red Season 2 more than 9 months prior to arrival date
– This can be split between resorts as long as there is 7 consecutive nights
– You can book less than 7 nights if it is within 9 months of the arrival date;
– Housekeeping applies to each separate reservation
– If there is not 7 consecutive nights available you can book the only space available, but must book all the nights available at the time of booking.
– Reservations made outside of 9 months for the minimum 7 nights that wish to be shortened are required to cancel the original booking and wait 48 hours to rebook less than 7 nights.
– If you have a continuous stay booking in Red season and want to cancel a portion of the stay, you are required to rebook at another resort to replace the nights cancelled or cancel the entire reservation and are then subject to the 48 hour rule.

Weekend Rule

An Owner may have one Weekend Only Reservation at a time for each block of 6,000 credits owned, e.g., 6,000-11,000 Vacation Credits = one Weekend Only Reservation; 12,000–17,000 Vacation Credits = two Weekend Only Reservations.

There is a two night minimum stay when either a Friday or a Saturday are included in the reservation, subject to two nights being available. However, if only one night is available over the weekend that night alone can be booked.

Bookings must contain a 2 night minimum when either a Friday or Saturday is included.

48 Hour Rule

There is a 48 hours waiting period between a cancellation and a new reservation if you:
– cancel a one week reservation in the red season and requests the same reservation for less than one week within 9 months or less
– cancel a credit reservation and request the same reservation as Bonus Time/Fun Time and originally booked outside the Bonus Time/Fun Time window
– cancel a Bonus Time reservation and requests the same as a Guest Bonus Time booking within 5 days
– book on One Time Credits and then wish to change the booking to use credits awarded after the booking date
– are requesting a change to an existing reservation and the new arrival date is not within 13 months from the date the original reservation was made or, in the event of a Grouped Reservation, the first night of each segment is not within 13 months from the date the Reservation was made.

Housekeeping tokens

After you have finished your stay, our housekeeping team will clean and freshen your apartment for the next owners visiting.

A housekeeping token is required for every club stay in order to cover the cost of this housekeeping. All owners receive housekeeping tokens annually – one housekeeping token for the first 19,999 credits or less they own, then one housekeeping token for every additional 10,000 credits they own.

Housekeeping tokens are renewed on your Anniversary Date every year and, just like credits, they have a validity of two years. Similarly, the housekeeping tokens only need to be part of an accepted reservation by that expiry date – the holiday does not need to have been taken. You may also borrow tokens from the next year’s allocation, provided you have paid your annual levies for that year.

If you have a split reservation where you change resort or apartment, another housekeeping token is required for the move. Housekeeping tokens are also required when making bookings at Associate Resorts or through exchange provider, RCI.

Members of Lifestyle Gold and higher tiers of Lifestyle Benefits membership may be eligible for complimentary housekeeping if their holiday meets a minimum number of nights and they have already utilised their annual allocation of housekeeping tokens.

If you do not have a current token in your account and want to use your credits, a housekeeping fee will apply.

Housekeeping fees 2025

Some Lifestyle by Wyndham exchanges facilitated by the Developer, Wyndham Destinations Asia Pacific, require housekeeping tokens or an averaged fee, if no tokens are available.

What are annual levies?

One of the joys of being a Club Wyndham South Pacific owner is knowing you’ll enjoy recently refurbished accommodation and intelligent service every time you holiday! It is just one of the differences about a club stay compared to renting a hotel room.

Levies play a critical role in covering refurbishments, maintenance, operations and repairs at Club Wyndham South Pacific properties. If you think of your vacation ownership as your “holiday home”, annual levies are your contribution toward the expenses of that home: rates, infrastructure charges, insurance, taxes, utilities and other ongoing servicing.

What do levies cover?

Levies are the main source of revenue for meeting the annual expenses of the non-profit Club Wyndham South Pacific. These expenses include:

• Housekeeping, landscaping and maintenance
• Staffing of resorts
• Rates, insurance and other property taxes
• Utilities
• Body corporate fees
• General administration fees
• Resort management costs
• A reserve fund for refurbishments
• Club management including the provision of all legal, financial, human resource, IT and reservation services

The amount of levies each owner pays depends on the vacation credits they own. Owners with more credits logically spend more time at club resorts, so their levies will be higher.

The purpose of annual levies [link to the “payment of annual levies” page] is to maintain club assets and the club itself.

If you do not pay your annual levies, then you will be unable to use your vacation ownership – for example, you will not be able to make new reservations and your existing stays may be cancelled. If you think of your vacation ownership as a holiday home, you may face having your services cut off to your home and further action taken if you did not pay your rates and utilities charges.

Levies are payable as long as you retain vacation credits in the club, regardless of whether you use – or are able to use – your vacation credits. If a significant number of owners or the Developer failed to pay their annual levies, this could affect the cashflow of the club and Wyndham’s ability to operate the club and its resorts, which would impact all owners.

If you are having trouble meeting your obligations due to financial hardship, our Consumer Finance team would like to know immediately. Please contact them using the following details:
AU: 1800 021 129

NZ: 0800 558 668

FJ: 008 003 263

Intl: +61 7 5512 8038
accounts.receivable@wyn.com

Annual levies are your share of the annual costs budgeted by the club, based on the number of vacation credits you own. The club determines your annual levy once it has determined the overall operating budget of the club for the forthcoming year.

In your first year, you will be required to pay a pro-rata proportion of annual levies which corresponds to the amount of the calendar year in which you will hold vacation credits – for example, if you bought your ownership in July, you will pay six months’ worth of annual levies.

For the calendar year from 1 January 2023, owners pay $753.01 for the first 6,000 to 7,500 vacation credits they own and, for every increment of 2,500 vacation credits, an additional amount equal to $753.01 x 23.07% (0.2307).

*Use the formula indicated above to calculate annual levies on vacation credits above 20,000.

The amount you pay in levies cannot be negotiated. Annual levies can be paid on an annual, monthly, or fortnightly basis.

Annual levies may be increased annually, however, the increased amount is limited to 5% or the increase to the Consumer Price Index for Australia – whichever is higher. The increase was 4.97% in 2023.

Your Annual Levy statement will be made available on your online owner account on or by 1 December each year, for the following year. Email notice will be provided to owners when these statements are available.

RESERVATIONS

There are two ways you can book:

Confirm first

You confirm the reservation before moving your credits from your club account to RCI. Vacation credits are then only deducted after the reservation is confirmed.

Spacebanking

You are transferring credits into your RCI account without a booking. You have two years to book and travel with Spacebanked credits. Spacebanked credits can not be transferred back into your Club Wyndham South Pacific account.

Please note that transfers may take up to 72 hours. All stays through RCI require a housekeeping token as the stay is at a timeshare apartment. RCI has a different cancellation policy to Club Wyndham South Pacific – and some resorts have their own cancellation policies – so we would recommend reading the policy, which will be on your confirmation letter when you make a reservation.

MEMBERSHIP RATES

Members of Lifestyle Bronze and higher tiers receive membership to RCI as part of their membership, while all other owners can purchase an annual or multi-year membership directly from RCI. Fees apply for exchanges, although eligible Lifestyle by Wyndham members are offered reductions depending on their tier level.

*Taxes and Housekeeping Fees may apply. Resort fees, applicable in some cases, are non-refundable and subject to change without prior notice. All credit values are per week.

Nightly Stays and Split Week Resorts

These are offered exclusively to Lifestyle members at more than 600 selected resorts in the RCI portfolio. These can be booked up to 10 months in advance.

ONGOING SEARCHES

RCI is an exchange platform. The inventory that appears in the RCI exchange system has been deposited by other timeshare owners or clubs on behalf of their owners. Timeshare owners of more than 4,200 resorts can deposit their inventory into RCI but it does not mean availability exists for all of these at a single point in time.

Members can place an Ongoing Search if the dates or resort they want are not currently in the exchange. An Ongoing Search requests the system search inventory as it is deposited until a match is found – if or when this happens, RCI will make contact with the member to confirm they would still like to book. Incoming inventory is prioritised to Ongoing Searches first and, if there are none, the inventory is then placed on the exchange.

HOLIDAY RENTALS

Saving your credits and trying to use as few as possible? Holiday rentals are additional options available at discounted cash rates or converted into a vacation credit rate, often at destinations where there is no exchange accommodation.

HOTEL EXCHANGE

Associate Resorts are made available to you by the Developer, Wyndham Destinations Asia Pacific. The Developer has entered into agreements which enable Premier Owners to stay in specific apartments within each resort using their vacation credits, for a contracted period only. Like all Developer benefits, Associate Resorts are subject to change.

All Premier Club Wyndham South Pacific owners have benefits extended to them by the club’s Developer, Wyndham Destinations Asia Pacific, which can be withdrawn or changed at any time.

Some of these benefits are offered to all Premier Owners – for example, Associate Resorts – and others are available only through the Lifestyle by Wyndham Benefits program. Developer benefits include:

• Associate Resorts
• Wyndham Rewards exchange
• Complimentary RCI membership
• Motorhome hire
• Cruises
• Travel Exchange
• Welcome gifts

Owners can also access other Developer benefits including Fun Time and One Time Credits, which are single use credits that you can exchange for accommodation at club properties, subject to terms and conditions. All Developer benefits are separate and distinct from club ownership and can be added, removed or changed at any point in time.

How Developer exchanges work
The Developer purchases products or services at its own cost and provides them to owners in exchange for credits in Club Wyndham South Pacific. The Developer recovers the costs it incurs from the use or sale of bookings made with these credits. As the Developer promotes and sells vacation credits, it is continually looking at ways in which it can assist owners to use their credits and enjoy the benefits of ownership.

When providing Developer benefits, the Developer’s objective is to provide these benefits to owners while achieving a financial balance. The Developer does not look to profit from exchanging credits, however does aim to cover costs and not make a loss. This is why Developer benefits change from time to time and why we always state that Developer benefits (unlike your Club benefits) can change or be removed, as market conditions such as demand for the benefits or the cost of providing these benefits continually change.

The Developer monetises the credits it receives from owners by making bookings in Club properties and providing them to its guests, just as all club owners are entitled to do, subject to club guidelines. The Developer may sell the bookings through online platforms or other avenues, or sell the credits themselves via Developer benefits like One Time credits and Fun Time. Many current owners would have first trialed club accommodation through a discounted stay made possible through these exchange mechanisms.

Club rooms
You may sometimes see club apartments available online because they are Developer bookings, or because the club has apartments at mixed-use properties which include Developer or third party owned rooms available to the general public (for example, Ramada Resort by Wyndham Rotorua Marama or Club Wyndham Surfers Paradise).

The club may also make surplus inventory available online, with all proceeds received applied toward the club’s operating costs.

It is important to note that the Developer must comply with the same booking rules as any Club Wyndham South Pacific owner when it makes bookings (for example, the 13-month window).

These bookings do not place additional pressure on availability. The Developer is making bookings with credits which would otherwise be used by owners. The total amount of credits on issue and club inventory does not change.

We hope the information has provided you with a more complete knowledge about how Developer benefits work.

Acquisitions Process

Club Wyndham South Pacific owners often ask about which properties will next be added to the club. While the team cannot speculate or provide any guidance before an official announcement, inventory is progressively added to the club as credits held by new and existing owners expands.

Senior Vice President of Acquisitions David Wray recorded a video to provide some insight into the acquisitions process for club resorts.
