Travel review site, TripAdvisor, has released its 2014 list of the top 25 all-inclusive resorts in the world – and seven resorts affiliated to RCI have been put into the limelight for their great facilities.
The prestigious list is based on first-hand reviews from guests that have stayed at the resorts around the world and assessed their facilities, accommodation and more. Those in the top 25 all-inclusive resorts include resorts in some of RCI’s most exotic destinations in the Caribbean and Mexico.
As the global leader in Exchange Holidays, RCI, which has almost four million members worldwide, considers it has its finger on the pulse of exactly what holidaymakers are looking for. It regularly asks its members for resort reviews after each stay, but this acknowledgement by TripAdvisor reviewers of the quality of RCI’s affiliated resorts is extra assurance for RCI and its members.
RCI president, Gordon Gurnik, said: “RCI is proud to be affiliated with so many high-quality, highly-reviewed resorts, and we look forward to continuing to send our millions of members to these types of properties for unforgettable holidays.
“Our network’s solid representation on this list is a tribute to the network of holiday options we have created for our members. This is great news for RCI members.”
