The WORLDWIDE VACATION CLUB (WWVC), I am a member, is established in Fuengirola (Costa del Sol) in Spain and is connected to Rockwell International, a timeshare-selling-organization. WWVC is a member of C.A.R.E., the Cooperative Association of Resort Exchangers. WWVC is not an exchange bank like RCI or II. They buy unused holiday weeks from premier resorts all over the world and trade them to their members for a fixed price, per apartment, per week. They call it the Profile Holiday System. As their system relies on utilizing accomodation that is otherwise unused, they do not work with a "Brochure" system like a travel agent. Members choose the country and area that they would like to visit, the facilities and activities they would like on or near the resort (sunbathe,shop, golf, tennis, ski, town, country, etc.), the travel dates and the number of weeks and the size of the party (maximum 6 people). Then WWVC tries to find a resort or hotel that agrees with the wishes of the member. Most accomodation is available in off-peak times of the year. Members may use a maximum of 4 weeks of accomodation per year.

Their destinations: In Europe: Austria, England, Germany, Switzerland, France, Italy, Greece, Portugal, Spain, Balearic and Canary Islands. USA: Eastern States, Florida, Western States, Central States, Hawaii. Canada: Quebec. Mexico and Caribbean: Puerto Vallarta, Cancún, Cabo San Lucas, Acapulco, Bermuda and the Caribbean Islands.

Reservation fee for a one-bedroom apartment is $ 290, for a two-bedroom appartment $ 315 (1998-prices). Membership fee for l998: $ 55. Number of members : 15000. One can only become a member through marketers, they operate in several countries, but most of the memberships are sold together with a timeshare-week in Southern Spain. Address:
