ARDA Partners with Roadtrippers to Give Travelers a Better Way to Road Trip This Summer with Six Interactive Itineraries

ARDA, the trade association for the timeshare and vacation ownership industries, and Roadtrippers, the leading road trip planning platform in the U.S., are showing travelers how timesharing can maximize their road trip experience this summer with the launch of six customized itineraries along iconic U.S. road trip routes. 

Travelers who use the interactive itineraries will discover must-see stops and attractions –from the Gateway Arch to the Grand Canyon, to the Santa Monica Pier and beyond – as well as recommended timeshare resorts to stay in for a more comfortable way to enjoy quality time with loved ones while on the road.  

Timesharing itineraries are available for the following road trip routes:

“Most of the 1,500 U.S. timeshare resorts are located within driving distance of a major city, making them an ideal choice for families who want to simplify the vacation planning process and take a road trip this summer,” said Jason Gamel, President & CEO of ARDA. “In fact, recent research from ARDA shows that 62% of timeshare owners plan to drive to a timeshare resort in the next few months.” 

Unlike traditional hotel rooms, timeshares offer plenty of space to unwind and relax after long hours spent on the road, with features like multiple bedrooms, a full kitchen, separate living and dining areas, and an in-suite washer and dryer. Plus, travelers will still have access to incredible resort amenities, such as pools, activity centers, golf courses, restaurants and, in some cases, full water parks. 

“Road trips are all about freedom and discovery—and with these curated itineraries, travelers can experience the best of both,” said Robyn Barnes, Chief Commercial Officer at Roadtrippers. “We’re excited to team up with ARDA to show how timeshare resorts can make the journey even smoother, offering comfort and convenience without sacrificing spontaneity.”
