why use a vacation club membership to make reservations?

---

You never have to take a taxi, or wait on everybody from shared transportation to arrive.

Someone, with your name on a sign, will meet you, and take you directly to the resort.

You never have to go to the lobby, and be at the end of a check-in line like regular guests have to.

Members go directly to the Members' Lounge for an immediate, personal, and VIP check-in.

A 3:00 pm check-in time is meaningless to you. You do not need to wait until then.

Members check-in upon arrival, and go to their rooms, as those are the first cleaned & ready.

You are not limited to only those restaurants which accompany your reservation.
