Unlimited Vacation Club Reaches 50,000 Members
Unlimited Vacation Club (UVC) by AMResorts® signed its 50,000th member on November 7, 2016, a major milestone for our exclusive travel club. Steve and Angela Isakson, UVC’s newest members, purchased at Secrets Maroma Beach Riviera Cancun and helped us to make this monumental mark. The Isakson’s purchased their membership after experiencing UVC’s Unlimited Sharing referral program.
UVC has become one of the fastest-growing luxury vacation clubs in North America and now has officially reached 50,000 members worldwide. The majority of UVC members are from the U.S., Mexico, Canada, South America and the U.K; however, a timeline of its notable history promotes endless opportunities for members to travel to the destinations of their dreams.
“As AMResorts has grown from 19 to 52 resorts since UVC’s opening in 2010, we’ve been able to rapidly grow our member database over the past six years,” says Jorge Herrera, Managing Director of UVC. “Every year we raise the bar, providing new benefits to our members including the introduction of the U Lounge and exclusive partnerships with renowned companies, such as Amstar and RCI®. We make it our mission to provide the best services to our club members when they stay at AMResorts properties.”
Reflections of the Past

2011: Access Paradise –The family-oriented Sunscape® Resorts & Spas brand debuted its first property in Ixtapa on Mexico’s Pacific coast. The expansion provided members new luxuries through UVC’s partnership with I.C.E Gallery. Both land and sea travelers additionally gained Preferred Club Access with private lounges and concierge services to assist members sailing off into paradise.
2012: Journeys Beyond – The addition of five properties in Cancun, Cozumel, Puerto Vallarta and Curaçao continued to take VIP service to the next level.

UVC members are able to take part in the RCI® Platinum-level membership available by association.
2013: Breathless Sophistication – The dynamic Breathless® Resorts & Spa brand introduced a unique adults-only vacation concept for its members with its first resort, Breathless Punta Cana Resort & Spa.

2015: Partnered to Protect – Reaching 35,000 members in 2015 inspired UVC’s partnership with VacationGuard®. Unlimited Vacation Club alleviated typical travel concerns through the association to customize travelers’ protection plans and provide worldwide emergency travel assistance.
Life in the Present
