- Rental Companies:
- Sierra Rentals and Resales
- Hotel Representatives:

Common Complaints:
- Claim to sell fractional ownerships instead of timeshares, but in reality they are not deeded properties, just contracts for timeshare weeks.
- Salesperson claims that all travel expenses would be a tax write off against the property ownership because it is a fractional ownership.
- Salesperson claims that Sierra will rent out their timeshare weeks for a profit. Sierra charges a listing fee, but then never rents the weeks, and they stop answering the phone.
- Many clients have received calls from Sierra about a year after their purchase stating that they have a buyer for their Velas Vallarta property. They are told that they just need to pay for the title search and taxes into an escrow account and then they money from the buyer will be released to the seller. The seller wires the money to the escrow company, and then never hears from them again.
- Offer an annuity program where clients are promised to get their full investment back after 25 years if they pay an extra 5-7% of the purchase price to Lloydshare, the third party company that organizes the annuity.

This company is a complete scam period.
Timeshares are, and always have been a a legal scam, unfortunatley!
i was invited by a promoter, he told me i would help him because they receive a bonification per couple that goes to they're presentation and i ended up buying, it was the worst choice ever, i'm stuck for 99 years, i cannot rent my weeks, i cannot go anywhere else, don't do it!
Compre un tiempo compartido en Velas Vallarta 2 semanas al año y me dijeron que por medio de RCI podria visitar varios lugares pero la realidad es que ha sido muy complicado ya que es muy dificil encontrar disponibilidad en los destinos que quiero y he terminado vacacionando en vallarta ya por 3 años
Velas Vallarta is a terrible company that takes advantage of foreign visitors by misleading promises and subterfuge. Avoid at all costs.
when you sign papers with them or any other resort they claimed that you are subject to Mexican law, which mean they win automatically, all they have to do is paid a corrupt Judge (all of them) and they are free of guilt.

Nosotros estuvimos a punto de firmar una especie de TC pero con hospedaje y traslado en el mismo paquete… quedamos en volver al dia siguiente a firmar… y en la noche nos pusimos a leer las letras chiquitas y habia TANTAS restricciones que nos hicieron abrir los ojos y darnos cuenta que lo que nos estaban vendiendo no era realmente lo que por la tarde nos habia parecido SENSACIONAL.
I have had no luck with my credit card company for the one line on the enrollment application that states "cancellation but no enrollment refund." Please help me!
We were given false promises verbally as well as in writing. We called the salesman many times and he is never available to talk to us. He is a very different person from the one we knew the first time.
