Dear Valued Shareholders,
As the festive season approaches and we prepare to close out 2025, we reflect with gratitude on a year filled with memorable moments at Little Eden. From peaceful getaways to joyful gatherings, every visit has added to the spirit of togetherness that makes our Resort so special. Please join us as we share exciting updates, highlights, and insights to help you make the most of your time at Little Eden.

Regardless of the season, Little Eden is the perfect vantage point to witness the most spectacular sunsets imaginable. Light a fire or sit back and enjoy a cup of coffee while watching the landscape transform under the evening light. Once the sun has set, the sky comes alive with stars, unspoiled by the glow of city lights..

It’s also about helping them develop empathy, awareness, and a lifelong appreciation for the world around them. And it’s never too early to start. Here’s how families can nurture this connection during their stay at Little Eden:

Holiday Options: A Smart, Flexible Benefit for Every Shareholder
|
Holiday Options gives Shareholders far more than standard exchange opportunities - it offers real flexibility, convenience, and value.
Beyond traditional exchanges, members can enjoy Bonus Weeks, which allow for spontaneous, last-minute getaways without using points. Whether it’s a quick midweek break, a weekend escape, or an extra unit for family and friends, Bonus Weeks ensure you never miss out on quality holiday time.
Shareholders can also deposit their intervals (full weeks, midweeks, or weekends) and receive points valid for three years, making future planning easy and rewarding. As long as deposits are made at least eight weeks before occupation and levies are fully paid, points are allocated seamlessly. Even late deposits earn full points, offering additional peace of mind (late deposit fees are applicable).
Holiday Options also streamlines the management of your ownership with two rental placement options, allowing you to earn rental income on weeks you’re unable to use. Shareholders can list full weeks, midweeks, or weekend intervals on Gomelo at their preferred rate, update pricing anytime, and withdraw the listing if it hasn’t rented yet. MyResorts offer rentals based on a daily rate - ideal for Shareholders who prefer flexible, per-night rentals. This option allows your interval to be made available as daily reservations across the MyResorts network, increasing visibility and improving the likelihood of achieving rental income.
|
|
With Bonus Weeks, extended point validity, easy online levy management, and a simplified rental system, Holiday Options ensures that Shareholders maximise the value of their ownership - through flexibility, freedom, and effortless control over every holiday opportunity.
