Wyndham Destinations’ Club Wyndham Atlanta Wins Three Awards at ARDA Timeshare Together Conference

Vacation ownership leader honored with 14 total awards across its business lines, including the prestigious ACE Project of Excellence for the brand-new Club Wyndham Atlanta

ORLANDO, Fla., 2023-Apr-25 — /Travel PR News/ — Wyndham Destinations, the world’s largest vacation ownership company, was recognized for the newest resort in its portfolio, Club Wyndham Atlanta, taking home three resort-specific awards at the 2023 American Resort Development Association (ARDA) Timeshare Together Conference.

First opening to the public in June 2022, the dual-branded Club Wyndham Atlanta and Margaritaville Vacation Club by Wyndham – Atlanta marked the first vacation club resort property in the city. The 22-story urban oasis located on the edge of Centennial Olympic Park carves out a chic address for visitors to experience the vibrant culture, entertainment and dining available within the thriving and historical tourist district. ARDA honored Wyndham Destinations with the ACE Project of Excellence award for the new resort, one of the most prestigious accolades announced at the annual Timeshare Together Spring Conference.

Club Wyndham Atlanta took home two additional ARDA awards for best Interior Design: Common Room and Marketing Team. Club Wyndham Atlanta’s design pays homage to the significant history of the city, with dramatic modern elements including a collection of delicate handblown glass pieces artfully suspended from the lobby ceiling. The resort’s marketing team was recognized for establishing a timeshare marketing program in Atlanta – the first of its kind in the city. In a truncated year, the team conducted 4,087 net tours (190% of budgeted tour flow) and achieved $12.5 million in revenue (193% of budgeted revenue).
