Interval International has introduced a program that will allow members to split their deposit into short stay vacations. The cost is $139.00 per exchange and you can stay 2 to 6 nights on the short stay program. I went on line today to see how it works. I search California and Nevada and there was availability for Marriott’s Desert Springs Villas I and for June 9 through June 12. And in Nevada there was availability for June 9-June 12. Reservations can be made up to 30 days in advance. You can check availability on line at http://www.intervalworld.com
