Did you know that within RCI Grand Palms Resort is considered to be 3 different resorts? If you enter resort ID 4220, 6045, or 1797 into the resort locator at RCI.com, you’ll see that they are all located here at our resort.
This has led to some confusion. Exchange guests who stay with us one year and love their condo may come back the next year expecting the same type of unit and be surprised to find something completely different.
Unit options differ depending on the resort ID you use. For instance, if you're looking for a condo with a loft, you’ll want to search within the resort IDs 6045 or 1797. Or if you come with a friend, you’ll want to reserve under the same resort ID in order to stay in neighboring condos.
Understanding the differences between resort IDs will help you know what to expect when you reserve your stay.
The four RCI resort designations (IDs) found at Grand Palms Resort are:
4220 – Presidential Villas at Grand Palms Resort 6045 – Grand Palms Resort Villas 1797 – Grand Palms Resort
What all 3 resort IDs share

Amenities such as the Outdoor Pool, Complimentary Beach Shuttles, Day Spa are available to all our guests, no matter which resort ID is linked to your reservation.

Here’s a pro tip: if, for whatever reason, you were late in reserving under one resort ID, try one of the other 2 designations to increase your chances of staying with us at Grand Palms Resort. So while it may seem slightly confusing to have the multiple resort designations through RCI, you can see how it can work to your advantage when you want to vacation at Grand Palms Resort.

How they differ
Presidential Villas at Grand Palms Resort - RCI ID #4220
If you’re traveling with a large group and will need a 3 bedroom unit to sleep up to 12, then look into reserving in the resort ID 4220. This resort designation boasts the highest availability of 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom units, so you’ll reserving in this resort designation increases your chances of receiving a 3 bedroom condo. Also, if you're looking for a deluxe hotel where up to 4 guests can sleep comfortably, 4220 is the resort code where you'll find them. (The deluxe hotel is the 3rd bedroom of the 3 bedroom Presidential Villa unit and can be "locked off" and reserved separately from the 2 bedroom side.)
This is a purpose-built timeshare section of Grand Palms Resort, which mean it was built specifically with timeshare in mind. These units are practically identical in their layout so if you’ve been to a “Presidential Villas at Grand Palms Resort” unit then you know what to expect from these suites.

3 Bedroom (2 Bedroom combined with the Deluxe Hotel)
Grand Palms Resort Villas - RCI ID #6045
These units are considered “conversion” units, which means that they were originally privately owned condos converted to timeshare. Grand Palms Resort purchased these units as they have come on the market and converted them into some of our most up-to-date timeshare condos. As not all of the units in a given building have been converted, you may find permanent residents next door to you.
This is the only resort ID that includes 3 bedroom loft units. It also has the most availability in our popular 2 bedroom lofts. The loft is “open”, allowing you to see over the railing into the living room below. In these units, the loft itself is considered a bedroom—always a fun place for children or friends to stay. These are very popular, so make your request from RCI as early as you can to increase your chances of successfully reserving one of these condos.
