What is "Vacatia Value"?

Vacatia has created the Vacatia Value^SM rating to inform families how current resort rates stack up against local hotels with comparable star ratings, for the number of guests in their party.

Of course, resort residences routinely offer superior vacation accommodations for families. While professionally managed like a hotel, resorts regularly offer additional space and amenities that hotels almost never have.

The Vacatia Value^SM rating was created to highlight for our guests where, in addition to great accommodations, resort rates are actually less than comparable local hotel accommodations.

For comparison purposes, Vacatia finds the rates for local comparable quality hotels at the same time (and for the same time period) as it finds the resort rates:

• Studio and one bedroom resort residences are equated to a single hotel room
• Two bedroom resort residences are equated to two hotel rooms
• Three bedroom resort residences are equated to three hotel rooms

The Vacatia Value^SM ratings are:

	GOOD Comparable rates up to 20% savings! vs. the average rate of local hotels with comparable star ratings and number of guests.
	GREAT Up to 50% savings! vs. the average rate of local hotels with comparable star ratings and number of guests.
	AMAZING More than 50% savings! vs. the average rate of local hotels with comparable star ratings and number of guests.

You may also see Vacatia Values highlighted with specific, calculated average savings that the resort rate represents vs. staying in comparable nearby hotels (e.g. a 3 bedroom resort residence vs. 3 adjoining hotel rooms).
