Traveler Comments:
"We were skeptics of course on renting from a timeshare owner. BUT, we stayed at The Omni Cancun for 5 nights and [the timeshare owner] was a wonderful owner to work with. Everything went according to plan, no problems what so ever. Just want everyone to know that we had a pleasant experience using this website and quite honestly could not have taken such an expensive vacation without the affordable rates timeshare owners can offer by renting out their weeks. I say a big thank you to this website and all the owners."
– Member Gaye M.
"My wife used RedWeek for the third time and got a smoking deal in
Cabo $75/night instead of $495/night same room, same date on Expedia."
– Member Kurt W.
"We are definitely sold on Redweek!! After looking everywhere it
seemed we happened upon your site. I got my dream timeshare at less
than half the asking prices elsewhere!! We will be back for the second
one soon! Thank you for making your site so user friendly!"
– Member Renee W.
We were able to find a great unit, at the resort we wanted, on your site for about $10,000 less than it would have cost us from [the original developer]. The seller lived only a few miles away making the transaction very easy…
– Member Lawrence E.
"Last year we got such a wonderful deal on our timeshare. We bought a
prime week (July 4th week) in Orlando for just the maintenance fees.
Just last week, we closed on our 2nd timeshare. We love Myrtle Beach,
and thanks to RedWeek, we found another great deal! Now we can vacation
2 weeks in a row in 2 great spots. THANKS!"
– Member Debbie M.
"Since I joined, I have bought 2 timeshares through you, and am
thoroughly satisfied. In fact, I would have never found Cancun, except for
your reviews and excellent coverage. Thanks."
– Member Ed P.
"I just wanted you to know that through redweek.com, we made
arrangements with an owner for a rental at Cocoa Beach for this
August. It was amazingly quick and simple, and the timeshare rental
was affordably priced, too. The owner even sent us a lengthy suggestion
list of things to bring, places to go, things to do, directions, etc.
I must thank you so very much for this great service you provide...
From now on, whenever we travel we will always look at redweek.com
FIRST!"
– Member Cherie S.
"A few months ago while browsing your website we came upon a resale
week at a resort we stayed at last year. The location was great, the
unit spacious and the amenities super… but the price was
unbelievable. We thought there was a mistake in the price, but e-mailed
the seller and discovered it was as advertised. We purchased it and
used our week this summer and also some additional bonus time. We are
extremely pleased, thanks a million."
– Member Lee W.
… I enjoyed my stay so much at the resort!! TERRIFIC! Also, the owner of the Disney week has become a good friend of mine! So, not only did your services supply me with a great room but, a new friendship!
– Member Stacey S.
"I am so pleased with the results from joining RedWeek.com! We just
purchased our second timeshare and it is exactly what we were looking
for at a very reasonable price… Thanks RedWeek!"
–Member Laurie L.
"We just rented a two bedroom timeshare at [resort name] and were really
pleased. Our ocean view rooms were really spectacular, and more than we
expected. We traveled with another couple who did not use Redweek and
paid alot more for alot less! The resort itself is extremely expensive,
but our reasonable rental through RedWeek made up for the $17 hamburgers
and $225 golf!"
– Member Maureen B.
"I have just completed a rental reservation listed on RedWeek, after
two emails and two phone calls to the owners, we exchanged payment
through Paypal. A couple of days later I called [the resort] and they
informed me that I had the reservation as listed. In general a very
positive experience."
– Member William S.
… everything got sorted out splendidly. I feel very safe, and
confident in the security of my transaction, and I think the couple who
rented to us are simply fantastic people. They went out of their way to
help me, make me feel comfortable, great communication, etc. Everything
has been confirmed by me, with the resort, and I'll be sending those nice
folks a check first thing tomorrow… As I am NOT an owner, but do wish
to rent a timeshare every time I travel, I will be using your board and
renting possibly several times a year. Renting a timeshare is just such a
no-brainer when it comes to comfort and price. I never want to stay in a
hotel again…
– Member Michele L.
"I had to write and tell you how happy we are because of your marvelous
website… I posted a Redwish and scanned the For Sale ads, and we will
be closing on a beautiful Sanibel timeshare in 2 months. It all happened
within a span of less than a week… this site is the best one
out there."
– Member Carol D.
Thank you for RedWeek.com! I should never have waited so long to become a member! Since joining I have arranged for two different weeks in two different locations! This is a terrific service!
– Member Anita R.
"… I posted a redwish and within a couple of days had around 15
offers. I rented a one bedroom at Westgate Lakes from
[RedWeek.com member]… This is a wonderful site."
–Member Sharon D.
"Through RedWeek.com postings, I was able to obtain two outstanding
timeshares for tremendously reasonable prices!"
– Member Tom B.
"Our family spent 3 months in the U.S.A in 2004. Through RedWeek, we
rented 4 timeshares at Anaheim… New York… New Orleans…
and California. All these timeshares were excellent and the owners who
rented us their units were excellent to deal with."
– Member Cliff M.
"I just wanted to let you know that it went GREAT with [RedWeek.com member]
in Phoenix. He is a really nice guy and the place we rented from him was
WONDERFUL!!! We are so happy to know about RedWeek - this truly helped us
out in the pinch we were in. Thanks for your good work and keep it up!"
– Member Betty H.
I have signed up as a member and already made contact with owners and am working on a rental. Thanks - this is a great program!!!
– Member Jana M.
"When I found out that our favorite resort was not available for rent
through [the resort directly] as it has been before for us, we were
disappointed. But when I found RedWeek.com and good availability at that
resort, we made it work for us. Two couples of us were planning a trip to
Hawaii together so I managed to secure two rooms at very good rates.
Each of the owners were great to deal with. We'll be using the site again
and again. Thanks, RedWeek.com!"
– Member Tim R.
"RedWeek.com is AWESOME! I just posted a listing for a rental [RedWish]
YESTERDAY that I need for a week in the Outer Banks of NC and I hooked up
with a VERY nice lady and it's all taken care of TODAY!! What service! I'm
DEFINITELY using RedWeek.com again and again. THANKS!"
– Member Beverly A.
"This is to let you know that we were happy to deal with the owner and
have signed the rental agreement and sent her a cashiers check. We will
visit your site again for future trips and I hope we have as much luck as
we did here."
– Member Shirley D.
"After a brief visit to this site a week ago, tonight I went in to some
depth and usually I run across something that frustrates me to the point
of saying I don't need the aggravation and bailout. Not so with this site
it's all worked like I expected and am thoroughly pleased with searches,
registering, etc. You've got a good product!"
– Member Robert D.
"Many thanks… I will be using RedWeek again for buying and renting."
– Member John K.
"I have to compliment whoever is responsible for your website. I think it
provides an excellent service at a very, very reasonable cost. I especially
like the new 'forums' which should make it possible for someone who has
never been to a resort to get the straight story from those who own or
have been to that resort."
– Member Kathi L.
Timeshare Owner Comments:
"Wow… I am impressed. I had looked at your site a couple months
before signing up and listing my timeshare for sale. Not expecting much
from it… much to my surprise! Within 30 minutes of posting I had a
serious inquiry/buyer. We are in the process of things right now. 24 hours
later I got another email from a serious buyer! I feel confident this deal
will happen and soon. Though I'm selling my timeshare, I will come back to
your site for the rental of one in the future for sure. GREAT SITE!!
THANK YOU!"
– Member Bette R.
"Just letting you know what a great resource RedWeek is. We have sold a
timeshare and rented out two weeks in the past year with no problems. We
tell all our friends who are timeshare owners about RedWeek and how easy
and safe it is to use. Thank you!"
– Member Annemarie F.
"Last night I upgraded my redweek membership so I could post a week
for rent. I had been a "free" member for about 2 months. I posted my
ad last night and got some good email advice from [RedWeek customer
service staff member] in preparing my ad... Tonight, about 15 minutes
ago I completed a phone conversation with a renter. I am sure he will
send me the rent payment… after which I will send him the paperwork.
I am writing to let you know how impressed I am with your website and
the quickness with which I rented (hopefully) the week. If this is a
harbinger of things to come I will be doing a lot of business thru
Redweek. Thanks a lot."
– Member Rich S.
I am extremely pleased with the response I received after a late posting of a timeshare rental. With less than a month before occupancy, I received two offers and rented my unit in 2 weeks!!
– Member Martin S.
"I wanted to share my extremely positive experience with RedWeek.com.
I have listed my timeshare for sale and rent with two different places
prior to RedWeek. One of which has been an active listing for nearly
a year. I haven't received a single inquiry from these listings. I
decided to list with RedWeek thinking that the nominal fee was worth
the venture and to my delight, it has been! In less than a month, I've
rented out both of my timeshare weeks for a great price. I'm dealing
with great renters and I'm absolutely thrilled!! Thank you RedWeek
for really making an open exchange possible!"
– Member Ron S.
"I want to tell you about our experience with your service. My daughter
owns a timeshare at [resort name] in Cabo San Lucas at Thanksgiving. A
year ago she traded the week and put in for spring break and got it in
a week. She did it again this year but was told nothing was available…
I went on Redweek.com and got an incredible room for just the maintenance
fee. I ended up going with her and had the time of my life in the most
wonderful resort… I have told all the time share owners there, in the
airplane, on the street and everywhere else about your internet site.
My sister has listed her 5 timeshare weeks on your site and sold 1 so
far. This is so much better than trading thru [a timeshare exchange
company]. I thought you should hear from your biggest fan…"
– Member Peggy D.
"Rejoined RedWeek on Wednesday, had a rental inquiry the next day and a
request to "hold" for hubby approval and completed the rental the next
morning. Unbelievable. Thanks mucho."
– Member Gene Q.
"I successfully rented out a week that we could not use at one of our
resorts this year to a very happy family. They had a wonderful time and
we recovered our cost. Everyone was happy. Thank you Redweek.com!"
–Member Maryanna B.
The response we have had has been just simply overwhelming…
– Member George O.
"For the past 3 years I've rented our unit through RedWeek.com which
has been a Godsend for me since I've had no problem renting the unit.
Before joining RedWeek.com, I always had a problem trying to rent my
unit. I tried many rental agencies and was unsuccessful with most of
them. I do think the key to renting a timeshare is not to ask for
"the moon". That's one of the reasons I've been successful these past
3 years in renting my timeshare. The other reason: a lot of people use
RedWeek.com to find timeshares for rent. Thanks RedWeek."
– Member Joe G.
"I have to hand it to you… this website is steamrollering all other
timeshare websites. The other owners at one of my timeshares - are
constantly talking about Redweek and recommend it as THE website for
timeshare sales and info. Please keep up the good work."
–Member Joe W.
"… You guys were not kidding when you said advertising would be
increased… we have had over 200 inquiries since yesterday morning…
between myself and the full time person we have responding, we are still
not getting back to some folks on the same day… Thank all of you
again for your great service."
– Member Tonya W. (who has listed on RedWeek hundreds of times)
"Just wanted to let you know that I am very impressed with your website.
It is very user friendly and is very well set up. It is easy to navigate
and I can tell you have spent a lot of time in improving it over time…
I also found the need to ask you to follow up on an inquiry I had made
and was very impressed at how quickly I got feed back. Your response was
personalized (not just a canned response) and the best news was that it
worked."
– Member Susan S.
"I am pleased to report that I rented my [resort name] time share
through your service and was most happy with the results."
– Member Sandy W.
"We just wanted to let you know that we are extremely pleased with your web
site. We own a timeshare in Grand Cayman and have explored other venues
(mostly web) for advertising weeks for rent when we couldn't use them. Only
once were we able to find someone to rent our week through an outside
source. We discovered Redweek.com through an article in Bottom Line. One day after I posted our ad on your site, we got a query which led to an offer. We
now plan to take a look at timeshare properties we may want to rent. Thank
you for this valuable service."
–Member Ronald M.
I posted my timeshare week for rent and within 2 days had numerous inquiries and had it rented by the 3rd day. Fantastic service to have available. So glad I found it!
– Member Robert Z.
"You perform a valuable service. Because of your website, we sold our unit
to a great couple who will enjoy it for years, as we did. It was an
effortless, smooth transaction on both our parts and I would highly
recommend your site. In fact, I did today. Thanks again."
– Member Mary
"… want to let you know how very satisfied I am with the transactions
I have made through Redweek.com. I am an owner at [resort name] and have had
excellent success in renting out my villa through Redweek. I find it very
easy to handle the messages, make the transactions, and get a confirmation
of the rentals through [resort name]. I tried using one other very expensive
source and have not even had a nibble. Thank you for being there and for
providing such a great service."
– Member Ellis G.
"It was the best $25 I ever spent (to become a Redweek.com member). I inherited a timeshare and didn't know what to do with it. It was incredibly easy to rent out to cover the cost of the maintenance fees. Most of the people I met were wonderful and helpful since they had been using timeshares for awhile. When I dropped the sales price, I had several interested buyers. It was painless and easy, unlike trying to list with a timeshare sales company. Thanks for making it so user friendly."
"Just wanted to let you know we were extremely pleased with the process
of renting our timeshare in Hilton Head Island, SC through RedWeek.com.
We rented our unit quickly after listing it. We went through Chicago
for the escrow service with no problems. Yesterday we received our check
in the mail! Thank you for your great service!"
– Member Sonia A.
"After exchanging into… Myrtle Beach for two unitsoceanfront, side
by side, I decided I needed a third unit for my children's growing families.
(two new grandchildren this year means we are up to eight now) After trying
for months to exchange for a third unit, I discovered redweek.com and
joined. We found an owner who had a week to rent for the same time period in
August (high demand) that we were already booked for, and we ended up all
together at the same resort instead of spread out all over Myrtle Beach. The
transaction went very smoothly with the owner, and the weather was great.
Anyone want to rent me a week so that I can recuperate now from a week with
8 grandchildren in my lap? Do you rent chiropracters?"
– RedWeek.com Member
"We have used RedWeek.com for two years and have rented all of our
listings without one single problem. Your site will definitely out
perform other timeshare rental services which in my opinion are usually
expensive and ineffective. What good fortune we found RedWeek… we
hope to rent all six of our [resort name] Hawaii properties this year.
The escrow service is an added benefit. Thanks."
– Member Virginia Z.
"Just wanted to say that I am very pleased with Redweek.com's services.
I was able to rent two of our weeks in a very short time. The renters
seemed very happy to be able to find what they needed for a reasonable
price. Without the high commission fees charged, we were able to rent out
for a lower price - the transactions went smoothly and everyone's a
winner!"
– Member Laura Y.
"I just rented my week with you for the second year in a row. Both
times were… a pleasure. I hope to work with you again next year for
my rental week. I also have a week for sale, which I have had two
people contact me… I am hopeful, thank you very much for being
here for timeshare people."
– Member Deborah P.
"The privately managed transaction
worked great for us!"
– Member Elden B.
We are thrilled with your service. After several frustrating years trying to sell our timeshare, your website found us a willing buyer. We are closing this week… and both buyers and sellers are thrilled.
– Member Ted D.
"I did not get a lot of responses, but as the saying goes, one good
one is enough. Successfully sold both weeks, thanks."
– Member Paul R. (who sold two units in less than one month)
"Thanks so much for creating this avenue to allow us to rent our timeshare. Being a military family we find it hard sometimes to take a vacation. Your website gives us the opportunity to allow others to take an affordable vacation."
"I have used your site before with no luck which was MY FAULT for putting my posting in toooo late. This yr. I put it in early & got an IMMEDIATE RESPONSE! It is NOW rented within 1 wk. of posting & we have found a few that WE may purchase too!"
"With your help I was able to rent all seven days of my timeshare. And in
a relatively short time. Thank you!!!"
– Member George M.
"I have nothing but good things to say about your website. It has allowed
me to get responses and rentals for several properties I have. After seeing
the quality of what I have gotten with my membership to this site, I can
tell you that I would easily pay $100 not $10 for a membership."
– Member John K.
"We have listed our timeshare weeks with numerous other organizations over
the years… and some of them charged a hefty listing fee… and I
have never gotten even a query on them. Since I listed our weeks on
RedWeek.com… I have gotten NUMEROUS queries and in the last 3 months
have actually RENTED 2 of our weeks!!! REDWEEK.COM is definitely doing
something right in your marketing and I for one THANK YOU!!"
– Member Pam S.
"Thanks so much for organizing this site. We just completed the sale of
our unit at Vistana's Beach Club through the ad we had on RedWeek.com.
The responses we received from interested parties were tremendous. We had
previously attempted to sell our unit through some other companies which
charged us an upfront fee. We never heard anything from them in
over two years. We sold it through your site and handled the transaction
ourselves and will be seeking reimbursement from the other companies.
Thanks so much."
– Member David H.
"Your site is a breath of fresh air!!! We have had a lot of inquiries into
the rental weeks we posted in just 8 weeks! We had paid over $100 to list
the rentals on another site last year that promised results. We didn't have
one inquiry in that year!!!!"
– Member William Z.
I must tell you that I get a LOT of inquiries that come via the RedWeek site. I have tried many other resort rental places over the years and have NEVER had the response that I get from RedWeek.
– Member Pam S.
"I sold my unit in no time through RedWeek, had it on the market through
[major real estate firm] for over 5 years, and others before that!"
– Member Evelyn R.
"I would like to thank you for your wonderful site. It obviously has great
placement when people conduct a web search. I received an offer on my
Manhattan Club property two days after listing it on this site - we closed
this past Monday. I also had many, many inquiries while we were in
"contract" for the sale. Thank you!!!"
– Member Marie M.
"Thank you RedWeek.com. I listed my 2 units at Powhatan Plantation for
rent, and rented them both. I find that the class of people I talked with,
regarding the rentals, were all very nice and professional. I highly
recommend RedWeek for timeshare rentals and will be using you again."
– Member Thomas K.
"… this past year I rented three of my timeshare units through
redweek.com. Thanks."
– Member JoAnn L.
"I have just successfully rented my unit to a person I have never met or
seen in my life. The experience was so good it left me with the belief in
the basic goodness and honesty of people… I think you have a good
program going and I wish you greater success."
– Member Olusegun O.
I love your web site, have had great results from my ads, and have also rented a week from another member.
– Member Caroline L.
"I just want to tell you all, how grateful I am to use your website. I thin
it is THE BEST one out there for the timeshare community. I have such
wonderful responses from my listings on your site and I just want to thank
you for creating it. It is so easy to use and is kept simple at the same
time. THANK YOU!!!"
– Member Hillary W.
"Just wanted to congratulate and thank you for your great positioning on
the www. My traffic and inquiries have increased enormously. I did my own
[search engine] search using a variety of common approaches to find vacation
rentals on Sanibel Island and the RedWeek listing or RedWeek ad came up on
the first, second or third page in almost every case. Good work!"
– Member Sylvia G.
"Within a couple of weeks I am already getting people interested in my
weeks. Thank you so much for providing an honest service. I was ready to
write your company off as one more failure. Thank goodness I decided to
try one more time to get people interested in my timeshares. I have had two
people interested so far and I am very happy that I decided to give your
site a try. Thank you so much."
– Member Karen S.
"I enjoy RedWeek.com very much. I have tried renting weeks for several
years. So far, RedWeek.com has been the only place I have had any success.
I rented two weeks in Royal Vista, Pompano Beach, FL in March 2004 for what
I consider to be a good price."
– Member Jim A.
"Your site is the most comprehensive, informative and easy to navigate site
I have found. It's a pleasure to use it… Everyone who is looking to
rent or buy or has a timeshare to rent or sell should use this site. Thank
you."
– Member James O.
I am so pleased with the results from joining RedWeek.com! We just purchased our second timeshare and it is exactly what we were looking for at a very reasonable price… Thanks RedWeek!
–Member Laurie L.
Just bought a second unit off your web site. I got it for the price of the maintenance fee. Buy direct from the owner and save big.
– Member Paul W.
This is a great site. I bought a timeshare and saved over 60% than what a broker wanted or the hotel was trying to sell them for. Buy direct from an owner is the only way, no middle man markup.
– Member Paul W.
Many thanks for having this Web site. I did not have any luck with other Web sites finding a resort. I came upon yours by chance and found exactly what we were looking for. Will certainly use Red Week again and will let my family and friends know all about the site.
– Member Patricia T.
I am happy to say the two timeshares I posted, one in Aruba and one at [resort name] sold within a few months I was surprised. This is a wonderful web site. I have been checking on rentals and know I will find wonderful values.
– Member Bob J.
I have been a member with Redweek.com for a couple of years and it takes me no time to rent out or find something I'm looking for. Thanks for a Great Site.
– Member Richard F.
I really love Redweek and have found it to be much more effective in connecting with renters than the very costly rental agencies I've used in the past, which, by the way, took my money, but produced NO results, so I'm thrilled to have discovered your website!
– Member Valentina
Thanks- y'all are GREAT to do business with and we've had AMAZING response to our ads. What a great service you're doing for all of us! Thanks again!
– Member Lee S.
Thanks to the small investment in RedWeek - our condo sold in less than 3-months.
– Member James S.
Thanks to RedWeek.com, we had several offers on our time share condo at Padre Island, Texas. We transferred ownership two weeks ago, and were quite pleased with your service.
– Member Frances S.
I've listed on RedWeek for less than a month and I've already had 2 successful timeshare rentals with delightful people who've been a pleasure to do business with. Plus, I've had many other queries. Thanks RedWeek!
– Member T.C.
Your site is the most comprehensive, informative and easy to navigate site I have found. It's a pleasure to use it… Everyone who is looking to rent or buy or has a timeshare to rent or sell should use this site. Thank you.
