How to Book your Interval International Holiday

There is a fee for this, which is fully refundable if no matches become available. The search for your request continues on a daily basis, and if an exact match does not become available you will be offered alternative destinations and/ or travel dates. The key to securing Interval International accommodation is flexibility with your travel dates and desired destinations.
Ensure you have your Interval International membership card and confirmation letter when you check-in.

Number of Première Points Issued
The number of points you are issued with relates to your Membership Level:
The Club
Your Première Points allocation lasts more than a year, allowing you to ‘save’ your points into the next year. Bronze, Silver, and Gold Members have 24 months from their Anniversary Date to use their Première Points, while Platinum, Traveller and Corporate Members have 27 months.
Your Première Points Anniversary Date
Each year on the Anniversary Date of your Membership for the life of your Membership, the Club will credit you with your Entitlement of Annual Première Points.
Your Anniversary Date is the first day of the month following the actual month that full payment is received for your Membership, and can be found on your Membership Certificate and Card.
The Club
Borrowing Première Points
If you don’t have enough points for your desired holiday accommodation, you can Borrow Première Points from your next Membership Year to make up the difference.
e.g. A Silver Member with 3,000 points in their 2021 account, requires 4,000 points for their desired 2021holiday. They can Borrow 1,000 points from their 2022 points allocation to cover the difference.
All you need to do is make sure your annual Club Fees for your current Membership Year, and the estimated annual Club Fee for the following Membership Year, are paid in full in order to Borrow Première Points.
Extending Your Première Points
If you are unable to use your Première Points before they expire, you can save them for up to an additional two years by depositing them into Interval International for the period of your membership with Interval. Deposited Première Points can only be used for Interval International exchanges. You can:
• deposit any amount of Première Points at any time
- there is no minimum deposit (this allows you to draw down on the point value for a booking when your exchange is confirmed);
• combine separate deposits to form the one exchange;
• use leftover points towards another holiday.
Once your exchange is confirmed the cleaning fee relevant to your booking will be payable.
Remember, deposited points expire 2 years from the date of deposit. You need to book and travel by the expiry date to use deposited points.
To deposit your Première Points into Interval International please call Member Services.
Upgrading Première Points
Alternatively, if you find that your holidaying needs have changed and you require longer or more frequent holidays than your points currently allow, you have the option to upgrade to a higher level of Membership.
Bronze, Silver and Gold Members must purchase sufficient additional points to Upgrade to the next level of Membership, while Platinum, Traveller and Corporate Members may purchase in increments of 1,000 points.
Pooling Première Points
Pooling allows you to take holidays with family and friends who are also Members. By Pooling Première Points you can combine your entitlements to book accommodation at the same time, allowing for more spacious accommodation and/ or longer vacations.
Your Club Property
To secure accommodation at Club Property, simply redeem Première Points from your account. The number of Première Points needed will depend upon the location of the property, the season, and the size of the apartment you require.

Member Testimonials
RECENT STAY AT THE SEBEL BOWRAL HERITAGE PARK
Hi there,
I just logged onto the website and wanted to leave some positive feedback on our recent stay at the Sebel Bowral Heritage Park however I can’t find where to leave the feedback.
I called Reception a few days before to say we would be late arrivals and they made arrangements for me to pick up a key from the locked safe. This process worked very well. The apartment was clean, had been recently refurbished and was very welcoming with everything that one could need easy to hand.
The receptionist the next morning was also pleasant and helpful. Also on checkout I had a friend who lives in the area coming to meet me for lunch and I wanted to show her the apartment. The Manager couldn’t have been more helpful in allowing me more time to have a coffee with her in the unit and show her around.
I just thought that often people complain and don’t take the time to praise so wanted to pass on the above. The location is beautiful and I can recommend both the apartments and area to other members to enjoy.
Regards
Gayle S.EVERYTHING ABOUT MANLY WAS PERFECT
I just wanted to make contact and thank you for the booking you made on my behalf for which I used on Saturday night at The Sebel.
Can I say what a stunning room it was, and how I found it difficult to leave it’s opulence yesterday morning.
Everything about it was perfect, and I can understand why this establishment has won consecutive awards.
The presentation of the apartment when I opened the twin doors to enter was amazing.
I made a point of letting reception know my thoughts on departure yesterday, so I hope the relevant people get the feedback.
Sometimes we forget to acknowledge what a great job some people do in their everyday work; i.e. the cleaning staff. (it was spotless).
So again, my thanks Lucy for setting me up in such a gorgeous environment and allowing me a better than expected experience.
Enjoy the rest of the day,
Gary R.
P.S. Could you tell me how much that particular room (402) would be for a Fri/Sat. stay and also just a Saturday night stay.
The friends I had there for drinks prior to going out were so impressed they were enquiring as to the affordability.
WE HAVE BEEN ACCOR VACATION CLUB MEMBERS SINCE 2007.
We have found the club very helpful in choosing our holiday destinations around Australia.
Attending the workshops have been very informative in the way of choosing holiday destinations and travelling in the off peak season and saving points too, so we can have more holidays now, and we can take our whole family too!
The Member Services Team are fantastic in helping you out if you have any questions, or are not sure before you make a booking
When we first joined ACCOR we took holidays in High season costing around 4000 points now we travel in the Value season costing 1800 points but by attending the member services workshop on a regular basis we now have a better understanding of what the club offers, and to get to most benefit out of our club. The workshop also informs us of new properties and explains what features they have and also explained the hard and soft refurbishments they are doing at any one time. It was also interesting to learn of the product disclosure statement which tells you of the latest additions to property room allocations.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR RECENT ASSISTANCE.
Dear Member Services
Thank you for your recent assistance.
I have been a club member for some 15 years and have travelled and stayed in great properties in Australia and overseas. I have utilized various Western Australian, Victorian and Queensland properties, Alpineland in Austria (the one withut the Kangaroos) and more recently on trip with my sons in Kilkenny Ireland.
In the last two years I have been very busy with work and I have not had a holiday. It was so good to get back into the swing of things with an update from you. I am much more aware of the offerings now available.
I am busy planning my next lot of travel through Accor Vacation Club (Canada looks good), it has given me the opportunity to travel and to stay at some amazing properties. Having somewhere to stay makes planning so much easier.
Thanks again for your amazing service.
