If by "vacation I purchased this week" you mean that you bought a timeshare by signing a contract, you can rescind (cancel) that contract ---- but ONLY if you do so promptly, correctly and in writing. You cannot rescind / cancel by phone.
If it was in fact a timeshare purchase, by law you should have been provided with notice of your rescission (cancellation) rights when you signed the contract. In the U.S., time periods allowed for cancellation are provided and identified by state law and those time frames vary among the different states. It's 5-7 days in most states, only 3 days in Massachusetts and a few other states, 10 days in Florida and Tennessee. If you are not already too late, follow those provided cancellation instructions precisely and SOON! Once the applicable state law deadline for cancellation passes, your rescission (cancellation) rights cease to exist. Very simply stated, if you snooze you lose.
Your notice of rescission rights with instructions and an address could be on paper, or it could be buried somewhere within a CD-ROM or a thumb drive provided to you after you signed the contract (the “hidden info” approach is a sneaky ploy very commonly used by Westgate). By some method, you were provided with all of the information required for you to cancel. It was handed to you (in some format) when you signed the contract, but you MUST meet the applicable deadline to cancel or you will be just plain out of luck.
If by "vacation I purchased this week" you are referring to something other than a timeshare purchase contract, I do not have any idea what you may be referring to and therefore, can offer you nothing further. Good luck.
