Re: Timeshare Rentals - Risk of Damage to Unit and Protections (by Den):
Senior citizens sometimes talk to themselves so here goes -
I'm starting to think that damage to a unit, while a possibility, is rare and unlikely. I talked to a rental agency and did find that they take no liability for this and this is understandable. The resort does take a credit card at the time of the reservation which could be accessed for damages.
I did call Marriott Vacation Club and was advised that they assume this risk when a unit is turned over to them for rent.
