ORLANDO, Fla. (Aug. 6, 2018) – Wyndham Destinations (NYSE:WYND) today announced it is building a vacation ownership resort in the heart of downtown Portland, Oregon, as part of the company’s efforts to provide exciting urban experiences to its owners.
“The Portland development exemplifies the strategy to utilize our established brands to grow our business in new and existing markets. This will be an exciting location for us, adding to our stellar urban portfolio. Resorts like this provide desirable destinations for our owners, while also helping facilitate lead generation and new-owner sales,” said Michael D. Brown, president and CEO of Wyndham Destinations. “The breadth of our brand portfolio allows us to access the best development options in the best markets and enables us to put our owners and members on great vacations. We appreciate the support of the City of Portland and look forward to becoming a member of that vibrant community.”
More locations for Wyndham Destinations to deliver great vacations
South Myrtle Beach, S.C. and St. George, Utah
This quarter, the company also opened resort inventory in two popular tourist destinations: South Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and St. George, Utah. WorldMark Myrtle Beach – Plantation Resort is the first WorldMark property in South Carolina. The WorldMark Estancia resort expands the club’s presence in St. George, providing beautiful suites for visitors exploring the natural beauty of southern Utah.
“WorldMark by Wyndham has great drive-to offerings, with a heavy west coast presence, and a growing east coast offering, now including Myrtle Beach, which we were able to add to our WorldMark brand in 2018,” Brown said. “These locations will help facilitate lead generation and owner sales with multiple brands helping accelerate sales growth, while opening opportunities for fantastic coastal vacations perfectly situated centrally on the east coast.”
Nashville, Tennessee
The company’s successful relationship with Margaritaville continues to bring new opportunities to our pipeline. Last year, the Margaritaville Nashville Hotel was announced with a plan to include Margaritaville Vacation Club inventory at the downtown, SoBro neighborhood hotel. This will add vacation suites in Nashville, expected to open in late 2019, allowing Wyndham Destinations to open sales and tour generation in the booming downtown market of America’s Music City.
The addition of Portland and Nashville adds to the company’s already strong urban resort portfolio, which includes sought after destinations such as Chicago, New Orleans, New York, San Francisco, and the newly opened Austin, Texas, resort.
