The "Club Sunterra" Myth

For a number of months the HOA Board has been hearing that owners who choose to attend the breakfast meeting with a Sunterra representative (NOT the weekly Tuesday coffee meeting with the Resort Manager, Gaston Correa) have been told that they MUST join the Club Sunterra system, at additional cost, or risk losing the use rights they have at the resort.

THIS IS NOT TRUE!

Membership in the Club Sunterra system is an option that any of our owners can choose but is NOT required to continue to enjoy your week at Cypress Pointe or to trade your week for another through RCI or an independent trade company. As you were promised when you purchased Cypress Pointe Phase I owners have a deeded week of ownership (some owners have every other year weeks) that you can enjoy forever.

Club Sunterra is an option that could be valuable if your vacation style needs to be more flexible than a 7 day trip to one location allows. There is an extra cost involved to join and a small annual fee. The Club system is run by Sunterra, not the Phase I HOA. It is possible that membership in the Club system may require purchase of additional timeshare weeks or a change in the deeded week you own. Those requirements are set and can be modified by Sunterra.

The Cypress Pointe Phase I HOA has no recommendation to our owners about joining the Club Sunterra system. It may be a good value to some owners while others do not need the features the Club offers. This statement is only to make it clear that at no time has it been required that you join Club Sunterra - or RCI - in order to use your purchased week at Cypress Pointe resort. If anyone attempts to tell you that Club membership is or will be required PLEASE notify your Cypress Pointe HOA immediately with the name of that person.
