Timeshare and vacation ownership are often used as interchangeable terms. Timeshare may be purchased through deeded property ownership, right-to-use, or a points-based program. Owners purchase a villa, usually in one-week increments, within a fixed (same week each year) or \u201cfloating\u201d system. Floating time allows the owner to schedule each year\u2019s vacation for the desired week within a specified season. <\/span><\/div>\n
