What fun is it to leave on vacation and look into your pet’s sad eyes? Not much! Well, now there are “pet friendly” timeshare resorts where you can enjoy a great vacation with your entire family, even the dog or cat!
Luxury timeshare resorts, such as the Four Seasons Residence Club Aviara in Carlsbad, California are rolling out the “pets welcome” mat. Not very long ago if you were a pet owner wanting to travel, you were hard-pressed to find decent pet-friendly accommodations, and often had to pay large extra fees if you did. Today, your best friend is not only accepted, but may get more pampering than you with special pet amenity packages!
A partial list of additional timeshare resorts welcoming you and your pet are:
Sedona Pines Resort, Sedona, Arizona
The Inn at Silver Creek, Silver Creek, Colorado
The Disney properties of Beach Club Villas, Boardwalk Villas and Old Key West, Florida
Cabins at Green Mountain, Branson, Missouri
The Inn at Taos, Taos Ski Valley, New Mexico
Timeshare owners are people who generally love to travel and if you are a pet owner – that may create a problem when you start the search for someone to stay with the pet or decide whether boarding is better. There are now pet-friendly timeshares all over the world which understand the concerns you have when traveling with your pets. These resorts will help to make your stay (and your pet’s stay) more comfortable and enjoyable for both of you! Why not consider a pet-friendly timeshare so next time your pet doesn’t have to miss out on all the fun!
Timeshares are overall a better way to travel with pets because typically it is a more “home like” setting versus a hotel room. When considering a pet-friendly resort you should take into consideration your pet’s lifestyle. If you have an active dog, you’ll want to be sure there are ample public areas (or dog-parks) for running and walking and possibly hiking trails nearby.
Most resorts define “pet-friendly” as those welcomed into the rooms and common areas. However, some resorts advertise as “pet-friendly” by offering an on-site kennel accommodation (Disney properties is one). If you are considering purchasing a timeshare at a pet friendly resort, be sure you clearly understand the pet-friendly policy before purchasing to determine if it fits into your travel plans with the pet.
RCI advises that there may be fees, deposits, pet weight limits, the number of pets allowed per timeshare unit and/or breed restrictions that vary from resort to resort. So, before you pack up your bags and put Ace in a cage, confirm directly with the resort that all information given to you is current and up to date.
