What if I need to reschedule my travel dates?

If you need to change your reservation dates 14 days or less of your arrival date, the equivalent of one night at the currently published rack rate will be applied to the cost of the package.
Where will I be staying?
Your vacation package includes accommodations at either a Hilton Grand Vacations resort or a hotel at one of Hilton’s 15 distinct brands, chosen for its quality and location.
When will I take my resort tour?
We schedule that when you book your travel dates – usually for the day after you arrive so you still have plenty of time to enjoy your getaway.
Can I attend the resort tour and sales presentation by myself?
If you are married or living with someone and combining your incomes, the couple is required to attend together, except where prohibited by law.
A friend/family member also purchased a vacation package. Can they travel on the same dates I do?
Since we tailor the resort tour and sales presentation to your individual vacation interests, we ask that you refrain from attending your sales experience with friends or family members.
Can I bring my pet?
No, pets are not permitted on Hilton Grand Vacations vacation packages or at Hilton Grand Vacations properties, with the exception of registered service animals, which are always welcome.
How many people can I bring with me?
It depends on what type of getaway you purchased, but typically these special vacation packages are designed for two adults, with some exceptions for families with children. You can confirm details when you book your dates.
How long do I have to use my vacation package?
Travel must be completed within 13 months from the date of your package purchase.
Can I bring my children on the resort tour?
Our team will be able to provide up-to-date information on activity rooms for children during tour times at participating sales sites.
What you need to know about vacation ownership
What's the difference between vacation ownership and timeshare?
Unlike traditional timeshare, we offer the kind of flexibility that allows you to return to your favorite resort every year or travel to new frontiers. With studios to multi-bedroom suites from Orlando to Hawaii, our program gives you the flexibility to create your own itinerary.
Do I really "own" my timeshare?
Yes, you really do own your timeshare. In fact, most of our resorts offer deeded ownership interest so you can own a piece of your favorite destination.
Do I have to travel to the same place year after year?
Only if you want to. Return to your favorite destinations every year or explore new horizons. With Hilton Grand Vacations, you'll always have a variety of vacation destinations and experiences to choose from, including our distinctive collection of Hilton Grand Vacations resorts, more than 5,500 hotels and resorts in the Hilton portfolio of brands, more than 4,300 affiliated resorts through resort vacation exchange privileges at RCI Exchange Resorts and SFX Preferred Resorts, and specialty travel experiences through our ClubPartner Perks travel partners.
Will I still be staying in standard hotel-style accommodations?
Each of our Hilton Grand Vacations resorts feature luxurious accommodations ranging from spacious studios with kitchenettes to multi-bedroom suites with fully equipped kitchens.
Can I afford to become a Hilton Grand Vacations Owner?
Hilton Grand Vacations offers a variety of vacation ownership options, and our experienced Vacation Counselors can assist you in finding the perfect one to suit your vacation style.
