Free Vacation Frequently Asked Questions

Are there any fees or expenses associated with this FREE vacation promotion?


Yes. But you ONLY pay for taxes and resort fees. The taxes and resort fees must be paid within 7 days of activating the vacation voucher and once paid the voucher may be redeemed at any time during the next 18 months.


The taxes and fees are based on a few factors, examples include but are not limited to local tourism and bed taxes, value-added tax, sales tax based on the full rack rate of the accommodations, maid service fees, zone surcharges, travel agency fees, federal, state, local, or municipal taxes, etc. most average only about $20 US per night.


Resort fees are commonplace in the travel industry. As a matter of fact, over 96% of tourists traveling to Orlando or Las Vegas now have to pay a resort fee when they check-in at the resort. This is so common now that it’s just expected for any seasoned traveler.

These do not work for last minute bookings. Customer must book with a minimum of 30 days advance notice prior to preferred or selected check-in dates. So as long as the guest is booking more than 30 days out we can fulfill based on the availability of course. The properties that we work with release their unoccupied inventory to us daily with 30 days out, so there is no way around this. Remember, we are filling otherwise empty rooms for the participating properties and this is the time frame that they use to project what their occupancy will be. Based on what their projection is will determine how many allotments they can provide to us for these promotions. The one exception is when and if available if the guest agrees to an upgrade that requires a resort preview we may be able to get them in with less than 30 days advance notice.


How do I redeem my FREE vacation voucher?


You may activate online by paying the resort taxes and fees per night. Once you activate within 7 days of receiving the digital incentive you will have 18 months to choose travel dates. You will get email receipt and links to redeemvacations.com to search for dates and be able to choose from participating hotels for desired dates based on availability. The process is all online. To date, we have redeemed tens of thousands of digital incentives and have a fantastic reputation that we are proud of!


Do I need to attend a timeshare presentation?


Great question. No, you will never be required to attend any sales or timeshare presentation. These are real, top quality Resorts with no hidden fees or strings attached. We own and operate several high volume travel companies and we are simply filling otherwise empty rooms which the hotels and resorts turn into additional revenue from these consumers spending money on the property, such as room service, spa, in-house restaurants, bar purchases, casino and extra day stay, etc. In addition, you will be offered additional incentives and upgrades that you can choose to accept or decline. These additional incentives will save you from $500 to $1500 that will include a discovery tour of the property to introduce them to the benefits of resort membership or ownership. However, you will NEVER be required to upgrade.


How are you able to offer these incentives?


We have traveled over 1 million families to date and have contracts with the world's leading hotel chains, and resorts to help them fill their otherwise empty rooms. We help fill empty rooms which the hotels, resorts turn into additional revenue from other areas of their property and future bookings. Hotels rarely experience full occupancy, yet they remain open, providing rooms and services at fixed costs. So when hotels give out their rooms by partnering with us, they might miss out on the room fee, but they already didn't have that in the first place, at least now they have the opportunity to gain a customer for their in-house restaurants, room service, their casinos, an extra day stay, future bookings, etc. The benefit of why our program works so well is the fact that it's a win-win for everyone involved. You win because you gain more business from using our incentives. Your customers win because they received an awesome incentive gift from you. The resorts win because they gain additional revenue from other areas of their establishment that they otherwise would not have been able to get and they also have a new client that may book with them in the future.
