ROOM ASSIGNMENT

When purchasing your timeshare unit, said unit and week(s) are yours in perpetuity based on the conditions as set forth in the Articles of Incorporation, and will be automatically reserved for you every year. If in doubt, you can always contact the Owner Services department at aruban@tradingplaces.com or call 866-889-8645 to reconfirm your vacation plans or request a confirmation. This way both parties are assured of having the correct information on your arrival plans.

CHECK-IN PATTERN

Each unit at The Aruban Resort has a fixed check-in pattern. The specific unit number stipulates the check-in day of the unit you have purchased or acquired. Your regular week is determined by The Aruban Resort timeshare calendar, bearing in mind that every year your week could start on a different date. The Resort is not responsible for owners arriving in a wrong week. It is recommended that you keep your timeshare calendar available to confirm the correct dates of your interval. Other resorts and /or private business calendars may have different week numbers that may not coincide with your specific interval week at The Aruban Resort. If your weeks do not match the arrival dates of your week at another resort or with another week at The Aruban Resort with a different check-in pattern, you may need to rent additional nights prior to your week or extend your stay at The Aruban Resort to coordinate with your other resort. Please see the “ADDITIONAL NIGHTS” section for more information on renting time at The Aruban Resort.

CONFIRMATIONS

Confirmations are not sent out automatically for owned weeks; however, they are available upon request to the Owner Services department. We encourage you to retain written confirmations to avoid arriving on the wrong date. Exchanged weeks or rentals do not have a guaranteed room number, even if printed on your confirmation slip. Your final room number may change due to the timeshare structure of the Resort. Management has the discretion to change any room assignment in the event of maintenance or emergency.

TAXES

Upon usage of your timeshare week, you will be charged the applicable Government timeshare tax per night as stipulated by the Government of Aruba. Effective August 1, 2001 the timeshare tax was based on room category. The timeshare tax is subject to change by the Aruban Government. The amounts charged will be based on the current stipulated rates. Please remember that The Aruban Resort is only acting as a “tax collector” on behalf of the Government.

ADDITIONAL CHARGES

The Resort can establish additional charges if not covered by the budgeted operational costs. This could be, for example, an energy surcharge per night per unit type.

SECURITY DEPOSIT

Upon check-in at the Resort, you are required to leave a security deposit either by credit card or cash. The amount of the security deposit is subject to the estimated cost of the timeshare taxes per night, incidental charges such as telephone access, etc. The security deposit serves also as a guarantee for any charges incurred due to damages in the unit. The applicable amount is stipulated at check-in based on the length of your stay. The amount of the security deposit will be charged to your credit card upon check-out. You will be refunded any balance not used to your credit card. If during your stay you exceed the amount of the security deposit, you will be requested to leave an additional deposit.

ARRIVING IN THE WRONG WEEK

The Aruban Resort and Management cannot be held responsible for owners arriving on a wrong date. It is the owner's responsibility to verify the arrival date of their specific week. If for whatever reason the owner arrives on a wrong date, The Aruban Resort can only offer the applicable owner's discounted rental rate, subject to availability. It is not possible to switch weeks, exchange, etc. at that moment. Unused weeks as a result of not showing up on the correct day will be lost, and no additional compensation will be provided

ADDITIONAL NIGHTS

To rent additional nights or to extend your stay, contact the Rental Reservation department by phone at 866-889-9419, email at reservation@thearuban.aw, or www.thearuban.com/reservations to check availability. Owner discounts off the Resort's established rack rates, the applicable percentage of service charge and taxes are subject to change without prior notice. Additional nights are based on availability and there is a likelihood that you may be required to move or occupy a different unit for the extra nights, due to the timeshare structure and schedule of the resort. For specific rental terms and conditions, please contact the Rental Reservation department.

GUESTS OF OWNERS

In order for an owner to let a guest utilize his/her unit/week, the following is required:

Owner's authorization must be sent to the Owners Services department no less than 48 hours prior to the first day of occupancy. The authorization can be given by mail, phone, fax, or e-mail.
The name(s), address, telephone, fax or e-mail of the guest(s) that will occupy the unit/week.
The maintenance fee for the unit / week in question has to be paid. If the amount of maintenance fee has not been set as yet due to this being in the following year, the equivalent of the current year has to be paid in advance in order to get a confirmation for the guest of owner.

Conditions:

Owners Services department needs to verify if the owner is authorized to allow usage of the unit/week.
The corresponding maintenance fee needs to be up-to-date, including any applicable late charges, prior to guest's arrival.
A confirmation will not be given out if the conditions and requirements stipulated are not met, and the guest(s) will not be permitted to use the unit/week.
The owner is responsible to inform his or her guests of any applicable timeshare taxes and/or energy surcharges that will be charged during their stay.
Guests of owners are required to leave a credit card upon check-in for incidental charges and also as a guarantee for any charges incurred due to damages in the unit. The owner is ultimately responsible for damages done by his/her guests if the charge cannot be obtained from his/her guests due to non-payment.
Guests of owners must be 21 years and older.
Guest(s) of owners are not allowed to authorize third parties to make use of the unit / week nor can this be rented out, deposited for exchange or for any other negotiations. Only the owner of the unit/week can authorize other use of the unit/week.

WEEK 53

An anomaly of the The Aruban timeshare calendar creates a week 53 at the end of so many years depending on the specific check-in pattern. Please refer to The Aruban timeshare calendar for the applicable dates. Only the owners that purchased week 52 have the option to use week 53 when applicable, by paying the current maintenance fee for this extra week. To be entitled to this week you must notify the Owners Services department in writing no later than April 30th of the particular year that you wish to make use of week 53. The maintenance fee for this week must be received by The Aruban Resort before this date. If you have not complied with the April 30 th deadline, you are not entitled to this extra week 53 nor can you claim any rights to this for that specific year. Week 53 can only be used at The Aruban and cannot be deposited for exchange nor can it be in-house exchanged or placed in the rental pool program. If you opt to make use of this week, it is either “use” or “lose”. Owners can send a guest to use the week, subject to conditions set forth in these guidelines. Please refer to: “GUESTS OF OWNERS”.

CHECK-IN AND CHECK-OUT TIME

Check-in time is 4:00 p.m. and check-out time is 12:00 noon. If you are arriving earlier than 4:00 p.m. and you inform us of your arrival time, we will try to prioritize the cleaning of your unit and if feasible, you could get into your unit earlier than the regular check-in time. This is not a guarantee but we will do our best for you. It all depends on the prior guest's time of departure, the condition in which the unit is left as well as the workload of the room attendants.

A valid picture I.D. is required upon check-in.

It is mandatory to vacate your unit at 12:00 noon on the scheduled day of departure or earlier if possible. Housekeeping will need to prepare the unit for the next owner. By not vacating the room by 12:00 noon you will be subject to an irreversible $300 charge to your bill, and Management reserves the right to remove your belongings from the room at your own risk. Upon signing the registration card at check-in, you acknowledge that your are aware and agree with this policy.

To make use of the Express Check-Out option, you must sign your credit card voucher upon check-in. The night before your departure, you will receive an envelope with a copy of your bill in your room message box detailing the charges effective through that afternoon. Any charges incurred thereafter, such as the last night's government tax, will be reflected on the day of departure. To complete the process, sign and enclose the bill together with all your room keys in the attached envelope and drop this off on your way out in the Express Check-out box located directly across from the Front Desk. A copy of your final bill will be mailed to you. You need to ensure that we have your correct address on the bill.

OPTIONS FOR USING YOUR TIMESHARE WEEK

OCCUPY – EXCHANGE – RENTAL

OCCUPY

Check your arrival date on The Aruban Resort timeshare calendar. Advise the Owners Services department if anyone other than yourself will be using your week. Please refer to “GUEST OF OWNERS” section in this document. If you do not occupy your unit and do not make arrangements in advance for exchange or rental options, your unit will be considered forfeited, and cannot be recuperated. The maintenance fee paid for that week is non-refundable.

EXCHANGE

If you have a membership with an exchange company, such as TPI or II, you have the option to deposit your unit/week with them. Your credit then can be used within a period of two (2) years for an exchange either to a different time / week or location based on their availability and terms. Please contact the individual exchange companies directly for all terms and conditions.

If you purchased your unit/week from the Developer or the current timeshare sales company (if applicable), your enrollment in the TPI exclusive Premier Access Program or the first year's I.I. enrollment fee could be part of the purchase and is paid for. Subsequent membership is subject to sales terms and it is your responsibility to communicate with the exchange company. If you do not advise the exchange company to extend your membership, you may find it cancelled.

If you opt to deposit your week, your maintenance fee for the specific week and year has to be paid in advance. If the maintenance fee for the specific year is not set yet, the equivalent fee of the current year needs to be paid in order to be eligible for deposit or exchange. You will be billed in due time for the difference if any. If your account is not up to date, your deposit will automatically be cancelled and consequently your week will not be eligible for an exchange. When your deposited week has been cancelled, you are required to re-deposit once the fees have been paid. Failure to re-deposit the week may result in losing the week. The Resort is not responsible for weeks that are lost due to late payments and failure to re-deposit the weeks after payment has been made.

MAINTENANCE FEES AND DUE DATE

The Maintenance Fee due date is DECEMBER 15 TH .

The Maintenance Fees are the operating costs of the Resort and must be paid annually regardless of the fact that you are not using or have not used your week. The budget that stipulates the maintenance fee amounts are voted on by the membership during the Annual General Meeting. This meeting takes places in the month of September or October of each year (unless differently scheduled by the board). Once the Maintenance Fees are set, the bills normally are mailed out around October of each year and are due by December 15 th . Please see your ASSOCIATION MAINTENANCE FEE AND COLLECTION POLICIES AND PROCEDURES for more information on penalties and fees for late or non-payment. If for whatever reason you have not received your maintenance fee bill in time or not received it at all, please call 866-889-8645, send an e-mail to aruban@tradingplaces.com for the applicable amounts and the address to send your payment or to request a duplicate bill. The Aruban Resort and management cannot be held responsible for lost mail. It is the owner's responsibility to pay on time. Options for paying on-line through the website are available.

When paying your maintenance fees on-line, it is not guaranteed that The Aruban has received the payment information, regardless of the confirmation printout that is generated from your computer after submission of the information. The omission could be a cause of the heavy e-mail or Internet traffic. Please verify your credit card statement to ensure that the payment was processed.

Your maintenance fee must be paid by the due date, regardless of the fact that you have applied for the rental program and are expecting revenue to be paid out. You will be charged late fees if you do not comply with the payment due date.

If you are not able to make use of your week, you are advised to make arrangements in advance for exchange or rental options in order to not lose your week. By not paying the maintenance fee you are not allowed to use, exchange or rent your unit. To avoid any inconvenience upon arrival or having to pay late charges, we advise you to pay your dues on time. Please refer to: “OPTIONS FOR USING YOUR TIMESHARE WEEK.”

Owners who purchased prior to September 26 , 1995 with a contract or membership number under the #12287 were granted a maintenance fee due date of 120 days (4 months) prior to the start of their week, however this is not applicable if the owner wants to deposit his or her week for exchange, apply for the rental program, or is requesting a confirmation for a guest to use his or her unit. This grandfather agreement is subject to change by decision of the membership in a general meeting. Owners who had a contract change or a change in ownership processed after September 26, 1995 will not keep the 120 days prior payment privilege and are required to pay their maintenance fees by December 15 th.
