We have listened to your feedback asking for more flexible ways to stay at Marriott Vacation Club resorts in the United States, the Caribbean, and Europe. Currently to stay at one of these properties, you need to have a 7-night stay booked through Interval International.

This means that you will no longer be restricted to booking in 1-week increments via exchange with Interval International.

Explorer Collection Options
Hotel and Luxury Residences Highlights:
Club Members love the changing holiday destinations in the Club Connections program. To accommodate even more locations, this type of availability will be provided through the Exchange Program's very popular Hotel and Luxury Residences option of the Explorer Collection, where you will find many of the hotels that were formerly provided as Club Connection locations as well as new hotels in some of the world's most desirable destinations. Through this option, Club Members will have access to a variety of hotels and luxury residences worldwide including the St. Ermin's Hotel, Autograph Collection in London, and the Renaissance Tuscany Il Ciocco Resort & Spa in Italy. Hotels available through the Explorer Collection are subject to change and reservations are based on availability.

The popular cruise and guided tour programs will also now be provided through the Exchange Program's Explorer Collection and will be enhanced to include many more departure dates, locations, and cabin options.

Seasonality Chart Changes
We have received feedback from Members that they would like these charts to be simplified. We listened to these concerns and decided to change the way that the Club Points needed per night is displayed. Instead of categorizing weeks into seasons, we will segment by date ranges. Please note, that this change does not affect the number of Club Points required — only the way this information is displayed. Here is an example of how the 2018 Chart for Marriott's Mai Khao Beach – Phuket looks with these changes in place:
