DAE Introduces Online Resort Reviews For Members

Announcement posted by Perspective Group 19 Apr 2014

Worldwide vacation exchange provider, DAE, has teamed up with timeshareAdvisor to introduce a new online platform for DAE members to write and read reviews of exchange Resorts.

Announcing the new online system would be available for DAE’s members globally, CEO Francis Taylor said, “By partnering with timeshareAdvisor, DAE can now share valuable visitor feedback through our own website with the ‘reviewconnect’ online timeshare review tool.

“The ‘reviewconnect’ technology allows DAE to request and display guest reviews of Timeshare Resorts directly on our own website, meaning members don’t even have to leave daelive.com to browse reviews.

“It’s all there in one place for them – making it simple for our members to interact with us and each other.”

Mr Taylor said it was timely for DAE to introduce this additional service for its members as the popularity of traveller review sites continued to increase across the globe.  

“We encourage our exchange members to share their travel experiences, good or bad,” he said. “This is a way they can actively give feedback on their resort stays as well as on the exchange experience.”

Resort reviews are made through timeshareAdvisor and screened for inappropriate language or content before being posted online, and a notification is sent to the resort with the opportunity to respond directly to the reviewer. 

“This will directly benefit our members and the resort community, and will open up more information for prospective members looking to join DAE’s free worldwide membership,” said Mr Taylor. 

“By making this tool available on daelive.com, we are further increasing the transparency and reliability of our award-winning exchange platform.”
