We’ve Always Been About Family

…and We’re Still Growing Today

More About Our Growth

We’re not the biggest player in the timeshare industry – yet. But we have big plans. And being smaller means, we have the largest opportunity to grow. 

In the Press

We’ve loved providing amazing vacation experiences for more than 38 years. During that time, we’ve seen thousands of families make countless memories at our Resorts. We’ve weathered some storms, but we’ve *never* seen anything like the unprecedented effects of this COVID-19 pandemic. And while family travel is our passion, nothing is more important than the health and safety of our owners, Club Members, guests and team members.
 
Over the past several weeks, we’ve been closely monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic, including evolving guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and an increasing number of state and city orders. As a result, **all of our Holiday Inn Club Vacations Resorts will be closed through at least April 16, 2020.** (Because of differing local orders, our Lake Geneva Resort in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin and our South Beach Resort in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina are scheduled to re-open on May 1st.) 
 
Even though these Resort closures were a necessary step to take, it was still very difficult – and not something we take lightly – knowing we were providing “home away from home” accommodations for owners, Club Members and guests in need and a place of work for so many of our dedicated team members. 
 
While we hope to re-open on April 17th, this could change given the uncertainty of the COVID-19 situation. For those of you that are interested in making new reservations, we’re currently accepting bookings for travel dates of May 1st and later. In the meantime, we’ll continue to share any important updates about our resorts on our [Corporate Updates page][1].
 
Rest assured though: once it’s deemed safe to travel again, we’ll be prepared to welcome you back with open arms, spacious accommodations, fun family activities and even *higher* standards of cleanliness. All so you can start creating new vacation memories with your families again when the time is right. 
 
We can’t *wait* to see you again soon. Until then, stay safe and stay healthy. **While we’re apart, we’re still #TogetherAtHeart** so in the meantime, we’ll be sharing some virtual vacations and favorite owner and Member memories on our social channels real soon.
 
Thank you for being a part of our family.

Important COVID-19 Updates for Our Valued Guests

**ORLANDO, FLA.** (Nov. 12, 2019) – Holiday Inn Club Vacations Incorporated, a national vacation ownership company, today announces the acquisition of The Ridge Resorts, a multi-faceted 11- acre timeshare property with 378 units located in Stateline, Nevada.

Continuing its commitment to aggressively growing its resort network and providing new opportunities to Club members and guests, Holiday Inn Club Vacations now has a significant ski resort with direct access from the property to Heavenly Mountain Resort, a popular South Lake Tahoe skiing destination. Under previous ownership, The Ridge Resorts has operated as four different properties: The Ridge Tahoe, The Ridge Pointe, The Ridge View and The Ridge Crest; however, in late 2020, the entire resort will be branded as Holiday Inn Club Vacations Tahoe Ridge Resort and begin operating as one resort.

“In looking for opportunities to build our resort network, we seek out destinations that will provide both memorable and effortless experiences,” said Tom Nelson, President and CEO of Holiday Inn Club Vacations Incorporated. “Our newRidge Resort is a great addition for our Club members and guests who can enjoy access to world-class skiing without leaving the resort. It’s also a great escape in the warmer months, thanks to its outdoor amenities and ideal location minutes away from Lake Tahoe.”

Located on the Sierra Nevada mountain range, the resort provides scenic views of Carson Valley and Lake Tahoe. Welcoming 2.7 million visitors each year, Lake Tahoe provides a variety of outdoor activities and natural landmarks, along with 24-hour casino gaming, nightlife and entertainment options.

The resort offers a range of activities and amenities reflective of the Lake Tahoe region, including a hiking trail that begins on property, multiple pools and spas, tennis and racquetball courts, a  fitness center, saunas and steam rooms. Dining and retail options include a restaurant, lounge, marketplace and ski shop.

Holiday Inn Club Vacations® Adds Exciting Ski Destination With Acquisition of The Ridge Resorts

2019 HCV Ridge Resorts Acquisition

**ORLANDO, FLA.** (Oct. 14, 2019) – Holiday Inn Club Vacations Incorporated, a national vacation ownership company, today announces the launch of its new Breast Cancer Awareness Month drive, Shades of Hope. To raise funds for the American Cancer Society®, the company will offer pink aviator sunglasses at its nationwide Holiday Inn Club Vacations resorts for a minimum donation of $5. Over $2 from each pair will go directly to the American Cancer Society and sunglasses will be available throughout the month of October, or until supplies last.

The company is also donating an additional $1 to the American Cancer Society each time anyone shares a photo on social media with a pair of pink sunglasses using the hashtag #ShadesOfHope, committing up to an additional $10,000 to the organization via this social media program. The company encourages any posts on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram with pink sunglasses and #ShadesOfHope, whether or not the sunglasses came from Holiday Inn Club Vacations, to drive more funds for breast cancer research and programs.

“We’re kicking off our 12th year of participation in Breast Cancer Awareness Month by rallying people to help conquer this disease that has impacted so many families,” said Denise Godreau, Chief Brand and Innovation Officer at Holiday Inn Club Vacations Incorporated. “For the first time, however, we’re expanding our focus through Shades of Hope beyond our team members to include the caring Club members and guests who visit our resorts, as well as the general public. Our goal is to both support finding a cure and help strengthen the families touched by breast cancer through the great work of the American Cancer Society.”

In addition to the Shades of Hope campaign, the company is raising funds for the American Cancer Society through limited-edition team member T-shirts. When the company celebrates “Pink Day” on Oct. 25, team members across the company’s various locations will wear their T-shirts and sunglasses and participate in various activities to show support for loved ones who have been impacted by breast cancer. For example, the company’s Orlando corporate headquarters will host a walk around its campus.

More information on how to participate in the Shades of Hope campaign can be found on the Holiday Inn Club Vacations [Facebook][1], [Instagram][2] and [Twitter][3] pages.

Holiday Inn Club Vacations Launches Shades of Hope Campaign for Breast Cancer Awareness Month

2019 HICV Shades of Hope Announcement

**ORLANDO, FLA.** (Oct. 7, 2019) – Holiday Inn Club Vacations Incorporated, a national vacation ownership company, today announces the opening of a new four-story building at its Holiday Inn Club Vacations® Williamsburg Resort. In alignment with the company’s commitment to grow offerings for its Club members and guests, the new development adds 24 villas, including six Signature Collection villas and the first three-bedroom options available at the resort.

With an ideal location near the top family travel destination of Colonial Williamsburg, the resort offers many family-friendly amenities. Guests can enjoy indoor and outdoor pools, playgrounds, a sport court and an 18-hole mini golf course, as well as a four-lane bowling alley and other attractions in the Town Square activity center.

“Families adore Williamsburg and all of the amenities we offer at this property, which has made it one of our most popular destinations,” said Chief Operating Officer John Staten. “For this new building, we added three-bedroom villas, as our research has shown that multi-generational vacations are on the upswing with more travelers looking for ways to accommodate the extended family. We are obsessed about the guest experience, which is our number one priority and integral to our plan to continue growing our members and resort network.”

Adding new resorts and expanding into new destinations will continue to be critical to the company’s plans for growth and improved guest experiences. However, bringing enhancements to existing properties with new accommodation options and amenities is every bit as important. This Williamsburg expansion follows the addition of a new Signature Collection building and pool in Cape Canaveral in 2018, while more than 700 villas are renovated each year across the resort network.
