Club Sunterra Vacations Membership Association, Inc. is the Club Sunterra Vacations association, and is a Delaware non-profit corporation. Individuals that purchase SunOptions in CSV become a member of the association.
The real property that makes up CSV is deeded to an independent trustee, currently First American Trust, FSB, that holds this property for the benefit of the members of the Association. The Trustee receives title insurance ensuring that all property transferred is free and clear of all encumbrances.
Membership interest in the Association is denominated in “points” or SunOptions, which represents a perpetual right to use inventory in a certain amount of SunOptions per year.
Club Sunterra Development, LLC is the developer of CSV and a subsidiary of Sunterra Corporation. Club Sunterra Development, LLC has the exclusive right to market and sell memberships in CSV.
When purchasers purchase SunOptions from the developer, they sign a Purchase Agreement that shows they purchase SunOptions and become a member in the CSV Association. In addition, they receive a UCC Title 9 Insurance policy, which shows that the SunOptions they purchased do not have any encumbrances attached. Further, they receive a SunOption
certificate indicating how many annual SunOptions they have purchased. The official record of membership in the Association is the Register of Members maintained by the Association Manager. With this membership, Sunterra offers a free membership to Club Sunterra, Inc., a Florida corporation, which is Sunterra’s internal exchange company. This provides owners with a 10 month reservation window to access the other 80 resorts within Sunterra’s internal exchange network.
A purchaser may choose to sell or transfer ownership of their CSV SunOptions and their membership in the Association, however, their free membership to Club Sunterra, Inc. is nontransferable. This means upon transfer to a third-party, the new owner would be able to travel within the 19 Club Sunterra Vacation resorts, or could pay an additional fee for
membership into Club Sunterra., Inc.
