Resort Week – Non-Refundable

Upon Deposit Confirmation, Resort Week Owner relinquishes all rights to use the Deposited Resort Week. The Deposited Resort Week is non-refundable and non-revocable, provided however, Grand Pacific Resorts reserves the unilateral right to suspend the Exchange Credit if the Resort Week Owner becomes delinquent or their use entitlement for the Deposited Resort Week is suspended by their home resort for any reason. In the event an Exchange Credit is suspended, no refund or extension will be granted. Except as otherwise provided, Deposited Resort Week will be honored for Exchange Credit.

Resort Week – Expiration of Deposited Resort Week

A Deposited Resort Week or Exchange Credit expires two (2) years from the date of Deposit Confirmation. Upon expiration of your Exchange Credit, your right to make an Exchange terminates. GPX Members are encouraged to monitor their GPX Account frequently. Grand Pacific does not provide notification of expiration date.

Upon payment of an extension fee, GPX Members are entitled to a one-time extension for an additional period of up to one (1) year. The applicable extension fee must be paid on or before the expiration of the original 2-year period. Please see Addendum B or the GPX Website for current fee schedule. All fees are transacted in U.S. Dollars.

Resort Week – GPX Inventory

Deposited Resort Weeks are collected as GPX Inventory and may be used by Grand Pacific for any purpose, including without limitation to satisfy Exchange Requests, as Rental Weeks, to accommodate for promotions, rental, sale, marketing, or other purposes as determined by Grand Pacific in its sole discretion.

GPX EXCHANGE

GPX Exchange gives GPX Members a selection of exchange destinations among the Grand Pacific affiliated resorts. Currently GPX Exchange does not restrict Exchange Requests by quality, location or seasonality. Grand Pacific reserves the right to impose certain restrictions. Upgrade fees may apply. Exchange Credits expire on the second (2nd) anniversary of the Deposit Confirmation. Cancellation of a Confirmed Exchange results in forfeiture of your Exchange Fee. Flex Bookings are available for an additional fee at time of booking. Please see Addendum B or the GPX Website for current fee schedule. Members have the right to cancel their booking within 24hrs of the transaction, all fees will be fully refunded. After the 24hr period, the standard cancellation policies will apply.

Confirmed Exchange

An exchange request is confirmed upon Deposit Confirmation and confirmation of availability of requested Resort Week (“Confirmed Exchange”). The exchange request is cancelled if a Deposit Confirmation is not confirmed with the home resort within forty-eight (48) hours from time of submission. Confirmed Exchange requests are processed on a first-available, first-booked basis. Grand Pacific Exchange does not guarantee availability.

“Look Before You Book” Feature

GPX Members are encouraged to view available Resort Weeks before deposit of home Resort Week. Members may select desired Resort Week and place a “hold” on the Resort Week and concurrently submit a Resort Week.

Exchange Fee

An Exchange Fee is charged and must be paid at the time of submission of the Confirmed Exchange. The Exchange Fee is subject to change without notice. Please see Addendum B or the GPX Website for current fee schedule. The Exchange Fee is non-refundable. Cancellation after issuance of a Confirmed Exchange results in forfeiture of the Exchange Fee unless Flex Booking is purchased and the cancellation is covered under the terms of Flex Booking. Members have the right to cancel their booking within 24hrs of the transaction, all fees will be fully refunded. After the 24hr period, the standard cancellation policies will apply.

Exchange Credit – Trading Value

Exchange Credit of one Deposited Resort Week must be exchanged for one Exchange Week. Split Week bookings are not accepted. Exchange Credit is based on the unit type (number of rooms or sleeping capacity). Please see Addendum C or GPX Website for current unit type categories. There are no priorities, limitations or restrictions on Exchange Requests based on resort location, amenities or seasonality. Exchange Credit for a Deposited Resort Week may be applied to an exchange request for a different unit type, subject to availability at the time of booking. An upgrade fee (“Upgrade Fee”) will be charged for any increase in the number of bedrooms. Please see Addendum B or the GPX Website for current fee schedule. Grand Pacific reserves the right in its sole discretion to allow exceptions in limited circumstances.

INVENTORY IS SUBJECT TO AVAILABILITY AND IS OFFERED ON A SPACE AVAILABLE, FIRST-COME, FIRST-SERVED BASIS. ALL CONFIRMED EXCHANGES ARE CONTINGENT UPON THE MEMBER HAVING AN ELIGIBLE EXCHANGE CREDIT TO OBTAIN THE EXCHANGE AND BEING IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE RULES AND REGULATIONS. RESTRICTIONS OR LIMITATIONS MAY APPLY. GENERALLY, THE EARLIER AN EXCHANGE REQUEST IS MADE, THE BETTER THE POSSIBILITY A CONFIRMED EXCHANGE CAN BE OBTAINED.

Exchange – Search Requests

If we don’t have your desired inventory available, you may submit a search request for preferred exchange week. Search requests are managed on a first-available, first-reserved basis. A Search request is retained in our records as a courtesy only. There is no guarantee inventory will become available within the original 2-year Exchange Period. If inventory becomes available you will be notified of the availability, but have no obligation to complete a Confirmed Exchange.

Booking – Confirmed Exchange

If the Confirmed Exchange is assigned to a Guest, the Guest’s Name must be submitted with the Confirmed Exchange. All bookings must be confirmed with the proper guest details at the time the confirmation is issued.

A Confirmed Exchange cannot be changed or modified. Any change in the dates, unit type, vacation area or Resort will result in a cancellation of the Confirmed Exchange. Upon cancellation, the original Exchange Credit will be returned to the Member’s GPX account and will retain the original Exchange Credit expiration date. The Exchange Fee will not be refunded. Members have the right to cancel their booking within 24hrs of the transaction, all fees will be fully refunded. After the 24hr period, the standard cancellation policies will apply.

CANCELLATION POLICY

Cancellations by GPX

Grand Pacific reserves the right, in its sole discretion (without refund or credit), to cancel a Confirmed Exchange, cancel an Exchange Request or otherwise deny the Exchange privileges of any GPX Member whose Exchange Fee is rejected by the GPX Member’s bank or credit card company or who has not fully prepaid all annual maintenance fees, assessments, dues, taxes, and other charges relating to its ownership or membership in the applicable Resort or Timeshare Plan. Grand Pacific may cancel or suspend GPX membership privileges of any GPX Member failing to comply with these Rules and Regulations.

Flex Booking

Grand Pacific offers GPX Members the option of purchasing a Flex Booking for an additional fee paid concurrently with booking a Confirmed Exchange provided that the Confirmed Exchange is made more than 45 days from the Arrival Date. If purchased, Flex Booking covers you in the event you are not able to utilize your reserved vacation and need to request cancellation of your Confirmed Exchange. Provided your cancellation is submitted more than forty-five (45) days prior to the Confirmed Exchange check in date, under Flex Booking (i) the original Exchange Credit will be returned to the your GPX Account and will expire two (2) years from the original Exchange Credit start date; and (ii) the Exchange Fee paid for the Confirmed Exchange may be applied towards your next Exchange Request. If at the time the new Exchange Request, the Exchange Fee is exceeds the amount of the Exchange Fee credit, the GPX Member must pay the incremental increase.

Flex Booking may be purchased for any subsequent or replacement Confirmed Exchange. No monetary refunds are distributed for cancellations at any time. Flex Booking cannot be used to cancel a Confirmed Exchange and then re-book the same Resort Week as either a Rental Week or Additional Benefit. We ask GPX Members to be fair and use Flex Booking for its intended purposes, and not to misuse it.

Flex Booking is optional. Members who decline Flex Booking in connection with a Confirmed Exchange will forfeit their Exchange Fee upon cancellation of a Confirmed Exchange, which includes any change in dates, unit type, vacation area or Resorts. Flex Booking is not available for Rental Weeks including, without limitation, “special” or “promotional” offers.

Limitation for Cancellation Costs

In the event that a resort becomes uninhabitable due to a natural disaster/public safety/community health concerns/or major construction incident, Grand Pacific Exchange may restore the Exchange Credit to the owner account or refund the cost of the Rental Week, but is not liable for travel costs or other expenses arising from the resulting cancellations.

PRIVACY POLICY

Upon submission of a Resort Week for deposit, you agree and authorize Grand Pacific to communicate with your home resort or its management company. Grand Pacific will maintain verification information private and confidential at all time and agrees not to pass this information onto any other third party. We do not sell or rent your private information to any other third party. We may provide your information to other offices of Grand Pacific Resorts for internal use only (in relation to reservations made through GPX Exchange Program).
