When you share your experiences with us, it makes our day. Here are some of our favorites.

Sue M., Owner since 2015

Our favorite vacation memory with Hilton Grand Vacations (so far), was our first stay at Craigendarroch Suites in Scotland. It took 28 hours to get there, and we lost our luggage along the way, but the entire experience helped us overcome our fear of planning our first trip to Europe.

Scotland was not even a destination on our list, but when we first became members, we were excited to see that there were travel destinations in Europe we could visit.

The Scottish Highlands were peaceful and beautiful. The Land tour Guides we had been excellent, and the Hilton Grand Vacations resort team members were knowledgeable and friendly. We look forward to returning to visit another Hilton Grand Vacations property in Scotland (there are four Along with others in Europe.

Jessica M., Owner since 2019

I’ve loved taking my niece on a couple of trips with Hilton Grand Vacations. One of my favorites was taking her to Tuscany Village in Orlando, Florida recently — she felt like a queen. Especially given how hard the last several months have been, having this time with her and enjoying the top-notch service was amazing!

Marilyn M., Owner since 2017

My favorite Hilton Grand Vacations vacation memory has to be the first trip we took as Owners to The Grand Islander by Hilton Grand Vacations in Honolulu, Hawaii. Our first night on the island was nothing short of amazing, and we had the pleasure of attending our very first luau on the hotel’s rooftop.

We were pleasantly surprised when we got upgraded to VIP seating and experienced the show up close and personal. I’ll never forget the smile on my girls’ faces after the fire dancers performed right in front of them. That was a night we will always remember!
