She11y, when you buy a timeshare, whether it be through Timeshare Adventures or from the resort directly it is called fractional ownership. That is, you own a piece of the property which allows usage during a specific time of year. Usually, the piece of property/period of time you own is sold by the week or the owner is awarded a weeks worth points/credits, which can be used to book a vacation. Typically, a resort will have a number of units and if each unit is sold by the week, each unit can be sold 52 times(once for each week of the year).

Sometimes the resort will issue a specific week number and a specific unit number. Other times they will issue a "floating week" and a "floating unit", which can be booked any week of the year, based on availability.

Most timeshare properties are at full-service resorts and the properties and the units are maintained by the staff at the resort. Like any full-service resort, a credit card is used to secure incidentals and expenses that may be incurred during the visitors stay. So, damages are ultimately the responsibility of the person occupying the unit when damages occur.

Timeshare Adventures has made this forum available for questions and thoughts such as yours, so we are happy to provide you with answers and advice.
