Purchased a White Pearl membership in Puerto Vallarta on vacation in June 2019 with many promises on the order of 50% off or more by joining the vacation club versus the price we paid on a package deal from United Vacations for our stay at the resort.
After you sign the contract and get back home, you receive access to some parts of the travel website for only UVC resorts (owned by AM Resorts parent company). A few weeks later you recieve a passcode to look at affiliated resorts and hotels worldwide to see what kind of discounts you receive as part of membership.
Almost nothing turns out to be as sold or portrayed. A good prudent person can find the same deals or similar packages w/o the need to pay anwhere from $7,000 to $20,000 depending on the level of membership in the vacation club. It would take a lifetime or perhaps 2 decades to earn enough savings to break even unless you currently travel 3X per year spending $4,000 or more on a vacation each time. And only if you use their owned resorts which cost a premium and based on reviews are not any better than Outrigger, Mariott or several other well known, high quality resorts.
Don't sign to buy. My absolute firm recommendation!!
