Royal Holiday Club is a vacation club membership program based in Mexico. Customers that sign up to become members of the club are supposedly given exclusive access to special offers at more than 180 resort properties in the USA, Mexico and Caribbean. The company may have as many as 80,000 members in its club.
This particular timeshare / vacation club company has an interesting backstory. Back in 2008, ABC News did an investigation into the companyās sales practices. According to the ABCnews investigation, Royal Holiday began offering customers free meals and special offers at the airport to reel customers in to the timeshare presentations at the resorts. When at the timeshare presentation, some customers were told they only had one day to sign up for the program before the offer wouldnāt be available tomorrow. One couple that purchased the vacation club membership, Doug and Karin LaClair, said they were shown a beautiful suite in the presentation, but when they went to use their membership for the first time, they only received a regular āMotel 6ā kind of room.
Although the company has more than 90 complaints on the BBB, it somehow holds a B+ rating. Ā The consumer protection agency in Mexico similar to the BBB, Profeco, reported more than 1,800 complaints back in 2008.
