Welk Resorts Installs TimeShareWare

Welk Resorts, the resort company founded by the famous band leader Lawrence Welk, recently installed TimeShareWare at two of its locations. Initially, the software was installed at the corporate headquarters in San Marcos, California and at its main resort in Escondido, California. This vacation ownership resort is split into three different resort neighborhoods: Lawrence Welk Resort Villas (286 keys), Villas on The Greens (290 keys) and Mountain Villas (296 keys, with the first phase of 80 keys now under construction). Next, the software was installed at another resort in the Palm Springs area, California called Lawrence Welk’s Desert Oasis Resort (162 keys). Construction is also underway at two new resorts; a 170 key beach-front resort in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico named Welk Resorts Cabo Villas, and a phased development of up to 363 keys in Branson, Missouri at the Welk Resort - Branson property, a resort with 160 resort hotel rooms, restaurant, theatre, and retail center. Welk Resorts now operates as a multi-site non-specific timeshare company, selling vacation points in its Welk Resorts Platinum Program.
 

 

Welk Resorts also owns and operates a telecenter company in San Diego utilizing TimeShareWare’s lead management and sales and marketing software solutions to book tours for the resorts. In all, TimeShareWare installed its lead management, sales and marketing, property management, and reports management software solutions, along with several interfaces and custom enhancements. TimeShareWare replaced a mix of software including Megasys and Magna at Welk Resorts.

 

Welk Resorts has almost 900 units total between the three existing resort locations, with an additional 829 units on the way in future phased development. The resort in Escondido boasts a 600-acre vacation playground with three vacation ownership resorts, two 18-hole golf courses, eight swimming pools, seven spas, 140 foot waterslide, splash pad, fitness center, four recreation centers including its newest Boulder Springs Clubhouse, restaurants, shops and boutiques, and a unique on-site theater featuring off-Broadway shows.

 

Welk Resorts is known for its high quality resorts (achieving Gold Crown, Five Star, and Superior Service award designations), strong service culture among its 950 employees, a loyal 35,000 strong owner base and one of the best-known and most recognized brands of all of the independent timeshare developers in the industry.
