About Capital Vacations
In 2018, Capital Resorts Club was rebranded as Capital Vacations Club. Today, the Myrtle Beach-based brand has over 80 destinations for its nearly 400,000 members, and its portfolio is growing all the time. In fact, Capital Vacations Club added 32 resorts to its portfolio in 2022 alone. These new resorts can be found across 15 states, as well as the U.S. Virgin Islands. These fabulous resorts have joined the roster of incredible destinations that owners can use their points to travel to. Members have many options to travel across the country and the world to fun destinations like South Carolina, North Carolina, Wisconsin, St. Maarten, Virginia, Tennessee, and Florida.
Note that, as with any vacation ownership program, Capital Vacations Club members are required to pay yearly timeshare maintenance fees. These fees go towards resort enhancements, so each property will be operating at its best standards. This also means that amenities are often upgraded, like adding new pool decks, updating kitchen appliances, or upgrading guest rooms with smart TVs. Keep an eye on the latest issues of Capital Vacations Club Connection magazine to see all the new resort enhancements.
Using Capital Vacations Club Points
Capital Vacations Club uses a flexible points system. By using their yearly allotted Club Points, owners can choose where and when they would like to vacation and in what unit they would like to stay. Each resort, unit, and vacation week will have predetermined point values that owners must spend to book.
Capital Points Protection Plan
Capital Vacations offers the Capital Points Protection Plan to give owners confidence while booking their vacations. Owners will receive a full refund of their points used on a reservation that is canceled up to 30 days in advance of their check-in date. If owners don’t protect their points with this plan, they can still receive a 100 percent refund for cancellations made more than 90 days in advance. For trips canceled 61-89 days ahead, a 75 percent refund will be issued. If canceled 31-59 days ahead, a 50 percent refund will be issued. For cancellations less than 30 days in advance, unfortunately, no refund will be given.
Capital Express
If you want to take a spontaneous trip but don’t have enough points for a last-minute reservation, Capital Express is the way to go. With this system, members can purchase points for a fraction of the cost. Depending on your Loyalty Program status, you will have a reservation window of 10 to 21 days in advance to buy points at $.007 per point. For example, if you’re a Gold Member and you want to take a weekend trip that costs 50,000 points, then you can get those points for $350 if booked within the two-week window.
Capital Access
Capital Access is the best way to make your next vacation extra special. Whether you want to get a better view from your villa or just need a more spacious unit, you can upgrade your getaway. Capital Access allows owners to buy additional points at any time to add to their account. The cost of these extra points is based on Loyalty Program status. Preferred members can get these points for $.02/point, Silver members for $.018/point, Gold members for $.016/point, and Platinum members for $.014/point.
Owner Assistance
The Capital Owner Assistance program is available to all Capital Vacations Club members. This program gives members the option to rent out up to 50 percent of their Capital Plus Points from the current Use Year. So, if you’re unable to take a vacation that year, you’d be able to rent them out through Capital Vacations for a small fee. Thus, ownership with Capital Vacations can be worth it even if you don’t vacation every year.
Reservation Programs
In an effort to improve the booking process for owners, Capital Vacations has recently implemented two new reservation programs. These programs will make booking vacations easier and give owners more options when planning their trips.
Capital Flex Travel
Capital Plus Loyalty members can book trips of any length beginning on any day with Capital Flex Travel. Most of the brand’s resorts are eligible for this perk. Booking times are based on loyalty tier, so those with higher rankings have access first.
Legacy Reservation Priority
To incentivize members to become legacy owners, Capital Vacations launched Legacy Reservation Priority. This means that when a legacy owner converts to a Club membership, they have exclusive access to their reservation. They can reserve their trip 10-13 months in advance, giving them a priority window to reserve.
Capital Vacations Resorts Exchange
Capital Vacations Club is now in the family of RCI timeshare brands! RCI is the biggest vacation exchange platform in the world, and now Capital Vacations Club members have access to thousands of resorts. Vacation exchange makes Capital timeshare ownership more flexible and allows Capital Vacations Resorts owners to enjoy new vacation experiences. With RCI, members can exchange their time at their home resort for vacations at thousands of resorts in RCI’s network. This means that Capital Vacations Club members can deposit their points into RCI’s system to exchange for a stay at a new resort. Members will now have access to more than 4,300 resorts around the world, so it’s easy to book unforgettable vacations.
