RCI Points - What Are They?
Most Americans today have heard of vacation timeshare and the huge exchange company, RCI (Resort Condominiums International)
RCI Points is a greatly enhanced form of vacation timeshare.
The RCI Points product is the greatest improvement ever to an already very popular form of vacationing for over three million owners worldwide.
RCI Points is a points-based program that offers participants the flexibility of using points for shorter vacations, as well as travel-related products, including airfare, cruises, car rental, and hotel reservations.
RCI has assigned a points value for every one of it's over 3,700 resorts worldwide, and owners have a hard copy directory of all the resorts and points values. The points values are also online at RCI.COM
An RCI Points owner owns a certain number of points attached to a particular "home resort" and the annual allotment of points can be spent like dollars at other RCI Points resorts or non-points resorts worldwide, as well as for hotels, airfare, cruises, car rentals, and more.
A good percentage of the vacation timeshare resorts being marketed today, are RCI Points resorts.
And with good reason. People today are often not able to get away for a full week as was required by the old traditional style timeshare.
RCI now has two distinct products, RCI Weeks (the old system) and RCI Points (the new system).
And, if you want to stay somewhere there is no timeshare, you can use your points for hotels. Or, maybe you just want to use your points for cruises or airline tickets, or car rentals, or any combination thereof. The flexibility is really pretty exciting especially when you find out how inexpensive our RCI Points packages are.
The points can be spent just like dollars and every year you get your new annual allotment of points to spend.
If you don't spend all your points in the first year, the points automatically can be used in the second year. They do not carry over to the third year.
We have a great example scenario on our website so you can easily visualize how you can use the points for various functions.
All timeshares involve ownership and therefore maintenance costs for upkeep. The good news about RCI Points though, is that unlike the older timeshare product where you only get one week for that annual maintenance fee, with RCI Points it is very easy to get more than one week or even several weeks of vacation, still for only that one annual maintenance fee.
Since you can get so much time our of your RCI Points for just one maintains fee, your expense is far lower, and in some scenarios it is only a small fraction of what it would cost you to rent a comparable accommodation.
Let's say you own 90,000 points a year (A typical package) If you use your points on RCI Instant exchange (45 days of less in advance of travel date), it only takes 9,000 points to stay a full week in a two or three bedroom condo with full kitchen.
If you used all of your points on instant exchange, you could take TEN WEEKS of vacation accommodations. If your maintenance fee is $400 for the year that means your cost for the ten weeks vacation is $40 per week. ($400 divided by 10).
Now you know why RCI Points are so popular.
We have many RCI Points packages, from very small to very large.
People like the idea that they can start with a small package to get the feel of it, knowing that they can always buy more points later on.
As a standard part of our service, we walk you through your ownership and teach you how to manipulate your points in order to get the most vacation time possible out of your points ownership.
