Club Service Fees for 2025
We work hard to create amazing vacation experiences for you and your family and to keep the resorts looking beautiful.
We are always looking for ways to add new activities and experiences for you to enjoy, while also keeping Club Service
Fee increases to a minimum, however, given the impact of economic headwinds on resort finances over the last two years,
it is important to start rebuilding club reserves for future improvement projects and equipment replacement.
During the Advisory Council meetings, we presented the 2024 financial reports and the 2025 budgets and explained the need
for a Club Service Fee increase to cover resort operating costs and also driven by the need to start rebuilding resort
reserves after several years in which they have been impacted by economic headwinds.
The first six months of 2024 were challenging due to the continued strength of the Mexican peso. Club Service Fees are paid in U.S.
dollars, whereas most expenditures (such as utilities, supplies and team member salaries) are paid in Mexican pesos. As the peso
strengthens, the collected Club Service Fees pay for less expenses than budgeted for. Although the peso has weakened since July,
factors such as staffing and wage pressures continue to be a challenge. A cost of living increase of 5 percent is considered
in the 2025 budget for staff salaries. Additionally, the minimum wage has more than doubled in Mexico in the last five years
and a 15 percent increase is expected for 2025. An 11 percent rise in electricity rates is also included in the budget for
all the resorts and is due to an increase in the rates per kilowatt charged by the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE).
After exhaustive budget analysis, and to best maintain the properties and ensure the levels of service that our members have
come to expect, Management recommended an increase for the Club Service Fee for all fixed week and Points members at each resort.
In the 2025 budgets, Resort Revenue is split into two components: the Annual Assessment to cover Operating expenses and Annual
Assessments – Reserves, in order to have funds for equipment and fixed assets replacement, and for larger improvement projects.
