Ownership Options

Marriott’s Aruba Surf Club is part of Marriott Vacation Club, which offers two different ownership options tailored to varied vacation preferences.

Deeded Ownership

Deeded ownership provides the opportunity to reserve a specific week at the same time every year. This option often appeals to those who prefer predictability in their vacation schedules. Owners can choose from Platinum Plus, Platinum and Gold season weeks, which vary based on demand periods.

The initial purchase price is generally higher for Platinum and Platinum Plus weeks when compared to Gold, but maintenance costs are determined by the unit size the owner selects rather than the season.
