Reasons to buy Southern Sun Timeshare

If owning a holiday home is out of your budget and renting a fully equipped and well-located hotel apartment for the whole family is beyond what you can afford, then a timeshare might be just for you. Southern Sun Resorts’ timeshares offer hotel luxury, great locations, a variety of accommodation sizes, and self-catering* convenience at less than what a like-for-like hotel would cost. By buying a week’s ownership in one of our resorts, you’ll be able to holiday for less without compromising on comfort or location.

All our timeshare resorts are tastefully furnished and well-equipped whether it’s one of our spacious apartments or chalets. You’ll be able to enjoy fabulous resort amenities and conveniences and unlike most holiday homes, you won’t need to bring all your linen and towels with you. Timeshare units come stocked with kitchen utensils as well as crockery, and cutlery. Most units have kitchens as well as separate living and dining areas and well-appointed bedrooms.

When you buy a timeshare week in a Southern Sun managed resort, ownership is in perpetuity * and there are many things you can do with your week.

In the event that you want to sell your week etc (remains unchanged).

A Southern Sun timeshare allows you to secure your future holidays at excellent value. Unlike a holiday home which might remain vacant for part of the year, with a timeshare you only pay for your week. To make your holiday even more cost effective you don’t need to worry about unpredictable upkeep and maintenance costs that can pile up throughout the year. Southern Sun timeshares are amongst the most desirable timeshare products on the market with a variety of high-quality properties available.

Southern Sun timeshare is Conventional Timeshare Ownership where you own a share in a share block company. It remains yours for as long as you continue to be the beneficial owner. It is bought in perpetuity which means it can be rented, gifted, sold, or willed. Your Share Block Company is run by a Board of Directors elected by you and your fellow shareholders.

When compared to the cost of buying a vacation home, a timeshare is economical, infinitely more flexible, and a lot less to maintain. Having a timeshare in one of the country’s favourite holiday resorts allows you to benefit from the resort’s great amenities and leisure facilities. And whether you choose to exchange your timeshare week for a different destination or visit your home resort each time, you’ll have more opportunities to explore and get to know the destination.
