How they operate
Normally, a Mayan Palace timeshare scam occur in the following way: Many people claim a sales person offers to have a long chat especially with American couples about how wonderful is to share a private place to stay every time you come to Mexico and give you a tour on the units that are supposed to be available for timeshare. Turns out people obtain a really different unit.

The sales person will never inform you of the 5 day period you have to cancel the purchase contract. Not to mention, they lie that the contract cannot be voided after it is signed. Which is a major typical indicator of the Mayan timeshare scam.

They also tend to persuade the client to level up in the resort membership, in case the client is not enrolled in one, the sales person will push them to become members at least.

They will ask if they own another timeshare that they no longer use and will tell them that Mayan Palace will sell it to lower the price of the current timeshare that the client is buying, but in reality they let people end up with the debt of both timeshares.

If you’ve been a victim of such a thing as a mayan palace timeshare scam, you can agree with most people that complained about the pressure they put you under.

Re-selling of timeshare scam
Even in the re-selling of properties, the mayan timeshare scams continue to be a great topic on review blogs.

mayan timeshare scams

The reselling fraud happens when a scammer contacts you by phone (most of the time) to claim they have someone interested in buying your timeshare at that moment. So they ask you to transfer money to cover sale expenses such as fees for the resale company or maintenance fees.

Only for you to end up stuck with the timeshare and scammed with thousands of dollars on the “fees” you paid for

Besides checking on the Mayan palace timeshare reviews, we advise owners to be wary of the following situations which may lead to fraud.

· Service offers made by a reseller, if it promises a significant return on the sale especially.
· A resale company that says the area of your property is in high demand and has an incredible number of potential buyers looking for timeshare units.
· A reseller who promises to modify or cancel the owner's contractual obligation to the complex in which the timeshare property is located.

The following tips will help you protect your investment if planning on buying a Mayan Palace timeshare:
Look up the reseller’s name on the web and check his background. Click on official sources for complaints about the person. Also Mayan palace timeshare reviews can help you on this one.

Ask about the promotion and strategies of advertising the reseller will do on the unit. Make sure you will be involved in the process and receiving reports. If they are simply publishing the unit on a resale list, it might not be worth it doing business with him.

One sign of a serious deal is a reseller who charges fees after the timeshare sale. If they ask you to pay an upfront fee, make sure you’ll getting a refund for it in the future. Always ask for the fees beforehand.

Get everything in writing. Read the contract carefully to ensure that it matches the verbal promises you have received. It should include the services that the reseller will run, as well as the fees they will have to pay and when. If the deal is not what you expected or wanted, do not sign the contract.

Always take your time to read the full documents before signing a contract and don’t let the sellers or resellers, put you under pressure, which is typical of the mayan timeshare scams as you can learn in the reviews.

    We just got back from Puerto Vallarta 2 weeks ago and realized we fell victim to a scam also. We purchased into the Grand Paradise Club. We were told we could purchase rental property 1 year in advance for a cost of $500 for a 1 bedroom unit at any Mayan Palace Resort. When we tried to book a unit they did not even go out 1 year. They do not have any units for $500 either. We were also shown paperwork where they had "fast weeks" which if you book only 60 days out you could get property for $100 - $250 for a week. This also is not true. We purchased this on our credit card, but have not paid it yet. Is there any hope of getting out of this?

    I made a terrible mistake by allowing myself to be conned into purchasing membership in Mayan Palace. The saleman told us many things that turned out to be untrue.

  • KathleenJune 25, 2012, 3:20 pm

    I have experienced the rip off with Mayan resorts. I have managed to hold off the final 16000 until August and I eve managed negotiate another contract owing only 4000 but not sure if I should go forward. I am not sure if I am being told lies again.

    My husband and I purchased a timeshare in Mexico, Mayan Palace in May 2009. Part of the contract was the transfer of a timeshare that I owned in PV. To this date, the transfer has not been made and I have been dealing with collection agencies and the timeshare association for assessments and dues since 2009. I am paid up through 2010, but cannot pay 2011 and the new transfer company will not do anything until I now pay for 2011.

    Went to Cancun on June 8, 2012. Approached by slick salesperson named Alfonso at airport who told us that he wanted us to visit grand Mayan just to see the place and consider renting next time we came down. Said that it would only take 90 minutes to see the property and they would then return us to our hotel. Turned out to be a very high pressure "Fractional Ownership" sales pitch. Our sales person was a lady named Toody who gave us her best shot with a very complicated scam to get us to buy. She was a complete liar, just as everyone else was. High pressure, intimidation, personal insults from a greasy Enrico. LIES LIES LIES-STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE AT ALL COST--THE WHOLE PROCESS TOOK OVER 6 HOURS. They finally let us go back to our hotel. this gives Cancun a very bad name. Toody is a complete fraud just everyone is there. A total disgrace to the people of Mexico

    Alliance Integrated Marketing Systems ( part of Mayan Palace legally known as Comercializadora y Servicio de Turismo S.A. de C.V.; Desarrollo, Marina Vallarta S.A.d) has closed according to the BBB and has stopped responding to emails or sending out updates. However...they still answer the phone and say "for an additional $199 to become a preffered member your time share sale will be marketed differently and be put on the Top of The List!!" This subsidiary of Mayan Palace also know as Comercializadora y Servicio de Turismo S.A. de C.V.; Desarrollo, Marina Vallarta S.A.d located it's business in Laredo , TX. Therefore I'm not sure how to go about getting any money back. I will go to Mexico myself and see what I can do. BEWARE OF THE MAYAN PALACE!!

    Hello,
    My husband and I just returned from the Mayan Palace in Riviera Maya Mexico. We bought into their vacation club. The second we got home, we did some research and were horrified with what we found. We want out of our contract. We sent an email to cancel the minute we got home, but don't think it met the guidelines set forth in their cancelation policy. I would love some help. Thank you.
