What is C.A.R.E.?

C.A.R.E. is a trade association established in 1985 by representatives of timeshare resorts who found that by

exchanging vacation inventory among themselves, they were better able to satisfy their owners with increased vacation

opportunities.

C.A.R.E. is not an exchange company, it does not own or control inventory or guarantee fulfillment of travel requests, and/or

rental or sale of any type of inventory, service or product.

As the C.A.R.E. membership grows, so does the inventory and the resort

locations.

the United States, Canada, Mexico, Europe and Australia.
