How to Join RCI
In order to become a member of RCI and enjoy all of the benefits of vacation exchange, you must own a timeshare. Check with your resort to make sure they are affiliated with RCI. You can also browse timeshares for sale on the resale market for a fraction of the cost as opposed to purchasing a timeshare directly from a developer.
