what are pure points?

Pure Points are your currency in the Divi Vacation Club – they are used to book travel and are the starting point to kick off an unforgettable vacation.

Pure Points are issued annually or biennially during the term of your Club Membership and are used to make reservations at participating destinations.* Each time you travel you use only the amount of Points needed for your trip, which is determined based on the time of year, destination, accommodation type and length of stay. *Members with biennial usage are issued Points every other year during the term of their Club Membership.

learning to read a points chart Let’s say you want to travel to Divi Village Golf & Beach Resort and stay in a two-bedroom suite. Now you need to decide when you want to travel, so you use the resort’s Points Chart to determine how many Pure Points your vacation will require. For this example, let’s say week 30 works well with your family’s schedule. This time of year is in High Season, so you will use 68,000 Pure Points to take this vacation.

Planning your Pure Points vacation is easy with our Points Charts, available in your Membership Guide. As always, if you need assistance, call our team of Vacation Specialists at 1-888-GO1-DIVI (461-3484) (Toll-free) or 1-305-925-3063 (International).
