Which Resorts Are on the Timeshare Blacklist?
The timeshare companies listed below have been associated with fraudulent practices in major tourist destinations such as Puerto Vallarta, Acapulco, Los Cabos, and Cancun. Many unsuspecting buyers fall victim to deceptive sales tactics used in these resorts.
What Is a Timeshare?
A timeshare is essentially the right to use a vacation property for a set period each year, rather than purchasing real estate outright. Owners typically pay an initial fee, monthly installments, and an annual maintenance fee. In Mexico, timeshares are often not a worthwhile investment, as many of the companies selling them are blacklisted for fraudulent practices—a fact most buyers are unaware of.
How Do Mexican Timeshare Scams Work?
Tourists often sign a contract without fully understanding its terms. During sales presentations, they are distracted by false promises, staged luxury experiences, and high-pressure sales tactics. Sales representatives from fraudulent timeshare companies work on high commissions, leading them to manipulate and mislead potential buyers. This is how a Mexican timeshare scam begins, and many of these companies appear on our blacklist below.
Are All Mexican Timeshares a Scam?
While many Mexican timeshare companies are fraudulent, not all of them operate illegally. Some legitimate options exist, but scam reports often reveal multiple red flags before a contract is signed. Victims of Cancun timeshare scams have reported extreme pressure to sign contracts and, in some cases, poor treatment from hotel staff after refusing to purchase a timeshare.
