A reported rise in the appeal of self-catering holidays during recession could turn more people toward taking timeshare vacations.
People are making it clear that they do not want to sacrifice their holidays. At the same time, expectations have been steadily rising and they want a high level of luxury and services at an affordable cost

Timeshare apartments traditionally come with fully-equipped separate or American style kitchens, as part of spacious apartments where families can eat together indoors, or on balcony and terrace garden furniture.
A typical timeshare costs a fraction of a holiday home and once on resort, many activities and entertainments are free and without the need for - and expense of - taxis or other transport.
"People are making it clear that they do not want to sacrifice their holidays. At the same time, expectations have been steadily rising and they want a high level of luxury and services at an affordable cost," said Club La Costa's Call Centre Manager for Club Operations, Alastair Fitchett.
"Club La Costa Resorts & Hotels recognised this trend long ago and has built a name for quality, on-resort accommodation with a wide range of services and amenities at members' disposal.
"Our guests have everything they need, down to the last teaspoon, to cater for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We also tempt them to eat in our restaurants with good food and special offers to help cut the cost of dining out."
Previous recessions have seen timeshare fare well, the product is deemed by its developers and marketers to be recession resistant and the industry is not expecting it to be any different this time around.
