it all starts here!

Latest News, Scams, Top stories and Photos


Your Aimfair journey may start anywhere, but it could start by tapping any of the links listed below.

The first is Welcome. This is a link to our Blog, and it offers thoughts and comments that date back to 2010. There you can of the history of the Grand Luxxe Residence Club** and where it is today. It is a pretty fascinating journey.

What you can't see until you subscribe to Aimfair are the next two links that Aimfair members love: Members Entrance and Owner's Forum. The Members Entrance offers current news to members and the Owners Forum is for owner's discussions. Members Entrance will ultimately be replaced by this page, called Summary Page. Members see links to all new content on the Summary Page. The Owners Forum is where owners discuss questions that may arise. You can view both when you become an Aimfair Member.

The next fourteen items are fun links to more history and member reviews:
  • News From Vidanta includes past news from Vidanta.
  • Member Reviews are reviews posted by Aimfair members.
  • News and Photos is the page you are on now.
  • Current News - List provides a list of the most recent articles created.
  • Beachland in Nuevo Vallarta. We will be adding Riviera Maya shortly.
  • Estates Division floor plans are discussed in this section.
  • Sky Dream Parks are the entertainment parks now under construction near Highway 200 and on the North side of the Ameca River bridge.
  • Jungala is the water park located in Riviera Maya.
  • Vidanta Elegant is the Vidanta Cruises first ship.
  • Luxury is the Aimfair Classified Ad section where members list weeks for rent and contracts for sale.
  • Golf facilities has focused on Nuevo Vallarta facilities, but they are offered at other destinations as well.
  • Scams? Beware! An offer that is too good to be true.....IS too good to be true!! Learn about protecting yourself and what to look for.
  • Timesharing is a growing and complicated industry. We barely scratch the surface here.
  • Exchange Companies can be helpful. However, inventory offered by the Exchange Companies comes from Vidanta, so it can be a service that changes with the season.

Subscribing members have access to all published content on Aimfair. Some pages will let you know the article is viewable by Subscribers. We hope you will join in the fun and subscribe. Just tap here and you can enjoy all the conversations with Aimfair Members too. Summaries of new information appear here.

Now....on to Scam Alerts! They are at the highest levels ever!!


We are beseiged with fake offers to buy our contracts or rent our weeks. We all want to receive the highest price we can for both. This desire on our parts could leave us open to receiving fake offers.

It is not uncommon to see the same offer year after year. A few days ago we received the Fake Offer from Vidanta - sent from a domain called VIDANTA-MEMBERS.COM. This domain was created on July 8, 2022, and the email message is you need to contact the sender to take advantage of Bonus Weeks that are about to expire. This offer was first seen in 2014!

Remeber: Be very careful - be very diligent - and DON'T SEND MONEY!
