    I was speaking to Alice to make my reservation. She was friendly, polite and helpful. We received exactly the room and dinner reservation we were looking for at the dates we requested. ** ******* *** * *** **** *** *********** ** I asked if we could have a room not too far from the elevator to which Alice put in a request. I couldn’t have asked for more accommodating service. Every time we visit Living Water Resort we have a very enjoyable stay and a fabulous dining experience.

    The first experience on my family vacation was awesome and so memorable. Salute to the team of staffs in Vitality Vacation for the best arrangement. My family had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed and could not want to come back home. My advise for the other families- Plan your vacation much earlier, go through all details once booking done and get the confirmation from the resort where planned to stay and get the help from support and member team of vitality vacations if any doubt to clear. MY STAY WAS VERY VERY GOOD AS ROYAL CLASS TREAT. Especially Money to worth staying ratio was so grateful and incomparable with other stay. Looking forward to having my next vacation soon. All the very best for other existing members and new and yet to join members.

    Absolutely Horrible.
    Many open slots a few weeks before booking should tell you something!
    Vitality makes you show up for a mandatory meeting which is normal but they choose only the 1 time slot they feel is appropriate! They booked us between our nights at 12:00 while we had other plans and refused to change the meeting date to any other time even the day before or after, after I explained the day they chose for us we already had booked blue mountain!
    *** *** ******* *** ******** *** *** ******* ******* ** ***  
    We booked at living water, was given special permission to have 2 families with same last name to book at same time as we were looking to purchase a time share. I advised we had other time shares and looking for another in Canada. Ms H. the manager, advised we could until 2 weeks prior to the vacation. 2 weeks before they changed their mind and demanding proof of other time shares and mandated that we bring *** contracts as well as all members listed on the time share needed to be at the resort yet they would ONLY allow us 2 rooms.
    Considering our family has tens of thousands of points spread out between parents and siblings we all cannot vacation at one time. This was not disclosed. When I advised Jen H. on the phone this was not terms of sale and was Bs she just snickered and was condescending to the point when she wanted to talk I did not want to even listen to her anymore, considering they called 17 times to push me to book this 1/5 star vacation.
    After speaking with the employee Elaine who was understanding, the manager Jen H. called and was absolutely terrible. @Vitality look at your reviews of this property! The issues are with the leadership/ manger. Save your name and get a new manager if not, the property needs to find a NEW managing Vacation team to assist them as people are not taking advantage of the rooms at 80% off with significant vacancies each night. No wonder why.. change your managing partner ******* ******

    They offered a weekend stay at a cheap rate. After taking my money, when they found out my marital status they said I didn't qualify.

    They advertise their 2 days or 3 day stay, at their resort for a wonderful fee. Take your credit card payment and then you are contacted by a marketing person who asks many questions and then says, " I'm sorry ,you don't quality". They will not tell you why you don't qualify. ** ** ******* ** ** ****** ************  
    I strongly feel they won’t pay me back. Why would you run a business like this? I will connect with Human Rights tribunal .

    Hi, ***. Our records indicate that you were successfully refunded on June 21st, which we hope resolved any concerns you may have had. However, it appears that there might be a misunderstanding, as we were unable to reach you during our recent attempt to call you. Our agent left a message requesting you to give us a call back. We have given you your reimbursement; thus, we would appreciate it if you could update our review to reflect that.

    *** ******* * **** ******** Purchase now suffer later!! Never have I have experienced the worst customer service and obtuse individuals in my life.
    This company should be fired from the Resorts promotion company!!
    They are actually ruining what could possibly be a great opportunity for so many.
    The thing that cracks me up the most. Leave a message and they will try to reach out to you in the three business days. Lol. So if I leave a message on a Wednesday, I am suppose to pray that I will get a response by Monday.
    No wonder they they us outside terrible marketing to try and secure buyers.
    Terrible Marketing n Staff to boot.
    Fancy, saying to Boot they all should get the boot out the door.
    *********** ****** ******* needs to correct this problem. The worst advertising is word of mouth!

    **** ************ ** *** ****** They sell you sunshine and deliver a storm.
    1. VAV said that we can use the 2 x 3 night package in Collingwood and South Carolina. Apparently you can use it only in Collingwood. Also you can use only 1 package in high season (which was definately not explained to us). They rush you through initialing the fine print which lays out the above.
    2. VAV said that we can most definately use the vouchers in Hawaii (and they knew this was the main reason we purchased this package). When we went to book, they said Hawaii is rarely available.
    3. The customer service team is condesending and loves to say "as I said", "as is states in the contract".
    They should have the sales people managing the customer service lines to hold them accountable.

    **** ** ********** ******! Their tactic is they will advertise promotion in ******** like I purchased Vitality Vacations - ****** ***** **** Resort $249 + $150. Then when you check the availability, it will show with a green check mark so you thought it’s available for that date you wanted but then once you hit submit for your booking then you will receive emails for your receipt and another email loading your offer and you need to dial their customer service to know more about this offer. It’s impossible to reach their customer service as no one answer so you will have to leave a message, and someone will contact you within 3 days they said. Once someone returned your call then you will be surprised with tons of questions and the date you want is not available. In addition, If you have a timeshare with someone, they will have to also come with you otherwise you will not get the deal and this is not giving you option for money back. I am trying to rebook and sent several emails, and no one is responding and so far the WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!

    *** *********** ***** ** *** * *****  It is a legitimate offer, with conditions and dates are subject to availability.  The stay is discounted 70% from the retail rates so yes, there are some requirements and blackout dates which is like most 'promotional' offers in life.  Due to the massive influx of calls and bookings, the response time may be delayed.  Our sincere apologies, I have forwarded your comment to our Marketing dept and one of the agents will follow up this week.

    I went to them when they had a promotion at the resort and attended a few hours presentation. I was very interested in joining timeshare at that time because the sales lady told me I just need to pay 1 time fee about $18,000 Cad and can go worldwide to enjoy hotels and air tickets free with points . She never mentions that I need to pay any fees every year afterwards.
    At the beginning I can use points for resort and air tickets.  Couple years later when I had time travelling and they took out the air tickets option without any notice. I can't use up all the points I accumulated . Also I used to pay a fee at the end of the year, but they changed it to the end of July every year with the same amount of points. That means I need to pay an extra 6 months fee for nothing.   I want to bring my puppy to the resort which was allowed before and they changed the rules to not allowed.
    They are not offered what I first started.
    When the day I signed up, agent showed me how lovely it is to use points going worldwide, but she didn't tell me I had to pay an extra fee on that particular resort.  If I pay the fees to the resort I want to go, that's the same amount I book directly to the resort.  So why do I need to pay timeshare?
    I want my account to be cancelled and a full refund.  I paid more than $25k and just went to Collingwood for a few days.  That was a really expensive cost.

    Hello, **. We appreciate you reaching out. It's disheartening to hear that the information provided during the sales presentation did not accurately reflect the ongoing fees and changes to the program over time. We strive to be transparent and ensure our customers fully understand the terms and conditions of our program, including travel worldwide with points.The removal of the air ticket option without notice and the alteration of fee payment timing have undoubtedly caused inconvenience and frustration for you. We also find it essential to maintain open lines of communication with our valued members, and we apologize for any shortcomings in this regard.
    We want to ensure that you feel the benefits and value of your membership, and we apologize if we have not met your expectations in this regard.
    While we cannot process cancellations or refunds directly, ** ***** ** ***** ** ******* *** **** * ****** ** reaching out to our customer service department at your earliest convenience (************@*****************.com). From there, we will be able to address your concerns, review your specific case, and provide you with the best possible solution. We will take your concerns into consideration as we continually strive to improve our services and ensure that our members have the best possible experience.
