Take the family on a vacation to remember – to the Mexican Caribbean with Dora the Explorer and SpongeBob SquarePants. It’s easy to do for members of worldwide vacation exchange leader DAE.

Thanks to its partnership with Azul Hotels by Karisma, DAE is offering timeshare owners tremendous value and family fun in one of the world’s most sought-after destinations.

DAE is one of the largest independent timeshare exchange providers with offices across the globe. Azul Hotels is a premier collection of family-friendly, Gourmet Inclusive® hotels in the Riviera Maya. The stylish properties feature spacious suites, a kids’ club, teen club, splash parks and grownup luxuries. Think Jacuzzi swim-up suites, à la carte dining, premium spirits, full-service concierge, 24-hour room service, adults-only swimming and lounging areas, nightly entertainment and more.

This summer, the group will put a playful spin on vacations in paradise when it launches its Nickelodeon Experience at Azul Hotels by Karisma. The one-of-a-kind experience will pair white-sand beaches and gourmet dining with character breakfasts, parties and palling around with Nickelodeon’s most beloved characters. The fun will be available to guests at three award-winning Riviera Maya properties: Azul Beach Hotel, Azul Sensatori Mexico and Azul Fives Hotel.

“We’re excited to bring this adventure to timeshare owners across the globe,” says Corbett Howard, Vice President of Operations, USA Office. “DAE is always looking outside the box for ways to add value to vacation ownership. The Nickelodeon Experience at Azul Hotels does just that – improving the owner experience, along with adding an innovative new program at exceptional hotels to DAE’s portfolio for current members to exchange into.

“DAE’s simple, straightforward approach to timeshare exchange has great appeal to our membership,” Howard adds. “We’re delighted that owners have access to DAE’s vast exchange network, giving them tremendous choice in their vacations, not just in the Riviera Maya, but around the world.”
