Westgate Timeshare

Westgate officially began in 1982 when Westgate Vacation Villas was constructed in Orlando, Florida. When the resort was introduced it was only 16 suites. Today Westgate Vacation Villas sits only a mile from Disney World and encompasses more than 2,500 suites. 26 years after that resort was completed there are 1,200 resorts under the Westgate name.

You can find resorts all around the United States in such places as Myrtle Beach, Florida - including Miami, South Beach, Daytona Beach and Orlando - Arizona, Las Vegas, and Park City, Utah. According to Westgate, they have over 2 million members all over the globe.

Over the last decade Westgate has recorded net sales steadily growing at a yearly average of 20%. This consistent growth has allowed Westgate Resorts to evolve into the third largest timeshare resort company on the planet.

Westgate timeshares have a Right of First Refusal (ROFR) clause. This has several effects on resales. This can be beneficial for the buyer and is definitely beneficial to the resort. It is beneficial because once the Westgate timeshare goes on the market and the seller finds a buyer, the resort has to be notified. The resort then has the option to buy the timeshare for the seller's price. That can be frustrating for buyers.

Another factor to be aware of with Westgate timeshares is that they have high depreciation rates. This means that Westgate timeshare resales sell for very low compared to new timeshares bought from the resort. It is generally believed that the high depreciation is due to the large amount of Westgate property on the resale market.

Westgate Resorts is affiliated with Interval International, giving the timeshare owner a wide array of external exchange options.
