How to purchase a vacation ownership from us
Purchasing a vacation ownership or timeshare is equivalent to purchasing part ownership of a vacation property. Hotel costs can add up very quickly, and if you visit Galveston often enough or on annual basis (maybe for a holiday gathering) a vacation ownership /timeshare can be a great value and option for your family or friends. It guarantees you'll have a beachfront property on the Galveston Island with enough space and accommodations you would have at home.
Owning a vacation ownership or timeshare means that others own part of it as well as a shared divided interest, so you literally have to "share the time" with them by the week you purchase. Since our property is a fixed vacation ownership, those who are and become owners will also have their share of time by the week that they purchase. As a result, purchasing a timeshare can be a great alternative or renting a hotel at a daily rate. Vacation ownership can also be a great investment for rental income, travel exchanges, and more.
To buy a vacation ownership is simple;
1. Complete the form below, so that one of our agents can find the right fit for you and contact you on the options and costs.
2. Once a Week is selected, the General Manager will draft a purchase agreement. The purchase agreement will be made to have the potential owner to view the terms on being a part of interval ownership along with access to review the property's Declaration and Bylaws with no obligation to buy as the document will have an expiration date. In this purchase agreement it will detail all the important information on the cost involved and value or your week. Accompanied with the agreement will be a Ownership Application (which will include the contact information for the potential new owner) this form is required for proper account billing and ownership records.
3. Once all required documents are returned to General Manager of the resort for processing, you payment will also be processed by credit or debit card only.
4. In about 30 business days or less, everything will be recorded as our property is a deed real estate purchase for interval vacation ownership. The recorded deed will be processed by Galveston County Clerk office as required by Texas state law. Then mailed to the new ownership address on file for the new owners records.
5. At this point forward, as an interval owner you will be billed for the Annual Maintenance Fees and/or any Special Assessments that may be billed every November for the proceeding year to keep your ownership current and active.

Tips & Warnings from the General Manager
- Always verify maintenance fees for the property. Maintenance fees are usually in addition to purchase and closing fees, and they require annual payments for use of the property. Find out about these extra fees in advance so as not to be surprised by them later on. All upfront fees should always be discussed with you in advanced and detailed on your purchase agreement.
- Keep an eye out for timeshare-selling scams that may solicit you by mail, email, and phone. Never contact a timeshare company that uses a 1-900 number. Only contact timeshare companies with local or 1-800 numbers. If ever unsure contact the General Manager for guidance.
