Although the supplied historical name is Wyndham Worldwide, the authoritative subject is Travel + Leisure Co., the company that emerged from the 2018 separation of Wyndham's hotel business and adopted its current name in 2021. The company develops, markets, sells, finances, and manages vacation ownership interests, while also operating vacation exchange, travel membership, and related technology businesses.\n\nThe company's corporate roots extend to Hospitality Franchise Systems, established in 1990 as an acquisition vehicle for hotel franchises. Hospitality Franchise Systems built a large lodging portfolio during the 1990s, acquiring brands including Days Inn, Howard Johnson, Ramada, and Super 8. In 1996 it acquired Resort Condominiums International, commonly known as RCI, a timeshare exchange business that became a major part of the group's later travel platform. Hospitality Franchise Systems merged with CUC International in 1997 to create Cendant Corporation. Cendant subsequently expanded its vacation ownership activities through the acquisitions of Fairfield Communities in 2001 and Trendwest Resorts in 2002, and acquired the Wyndham hotel brand from the Blackstone Group in 2005.\n\nOn July 31, 2006, Cendant separated into several publicly traded businesses. Wyndham Worldwide was created with the former group's hotel and timeshare operations. For much of its existence, the company therefore combined hotel franchising, vacation ownership, exchange services, and vacation rentals under a broad travel portfolio. It expanded its vacation ownership platform through the 2013 acquisition of Shell Vacations Club, a transaction valued at $102 million plus assumed debt of $153 million according to the cited reference material.\n\nThe company's structure changed substantially in 2018. In August 2017, Wyndham announced a plan to separate its hotel division. The spin-off was completed on May 31, 2018, creating Wyndham Hotels & Resorts as a separate public company. The remaining vacation ownership and travel businesses were renamed Wyndham Destinations. In the same period, the company sold its European vacation rental business to Platinum Equity for approximately $1.3 billion, including brands such as cottages.com, Hoseasons, James Villa Holidays, Landal GreenParks, and Novasol. It later sold its North American vacation rental business and related brands to Vacasa in July 2019 and acquired Alliance Reservations Network for $92 million in August 2019.\n\nIn 2021, Wyndham Destinations acquired the Travel + Leisure brand from Meredith Corporation, now known as People Inc., and changed its corporate name to Travel + Leisure Co. The Travel + Leisure magazine continues to be published independently by People under a long-term license arrangement. The company's current portfolio includes vacation ownership clubs such as Club Wyndham, WorldMark by Wyndham, Margaritaville Vacation Club, and Accor Vacation Club, as well as RCI exchange services and travel membership products including Travel + Leisure GO.\n\nTravel + Leisure Co. reports two principal business lines: Vacation Ownership and Travel & Membership. Vacation Ownership covers sales and marketing of vacation ownership interests, consumer financing connected with purchases, resort development and acquisition, and property management services for owners' associations. Travel & Membership includes timeshare exchange, membership travel, and travel technology activities. The company describes its vacation ownership network as extending across North America, the Caribbean, and the South Pacific, with more than 270 properties, approximately 25,000 individual units, and more than 800,000 owners in the reference material. Its former exchange and rental platform served properties in more than 100 countries. The business remains active under the Travel + Leisure Co. name.", "aliases": [ "Wyndham Destinations", "Wyndham Destinations, Inc.", "Wyndham Worldwide Corporation" ], "entityType": "corporate_brand", "l1Slug": "other", "l1": "Other", "l2Slug": "conglomerates", "l2": "Conglomerates", "l3Slug": "multi-industry", "l3": "Multi-Industry Holdings", "l4Slug": "holding-companies", "l4": "Holding Companies", "country": "United States", "headquarters": "Orlando, Florida, United States", "operatingMarkets": [ "United States", "Canada", "Caribbean", "South Pacific", "Europe", "Other international vacation markets", "More than 100 countries through exchange and membership services" ], "foundedYear": 2006, "founder": null, "website": "https://www.travelandleisureco.com/", "websiteHost": "travelandleisureco.com", "parentCompany": null, "owner": null, "groupOrHouse": null, "listedStatus": "public", "ticker": "TNL", "status": "active", "enrichmentStatus": "rich_ok", "typicalProducts": [ "Vacation ownership interests and timeshare memberships", "Vacation ownership resort development and management", "Timeshare exchange services", "Travel memberships and subscription-based travel products", "Consumer financing for vacation ownership purchases", "Travel reservation and membership technology", "Vacation-ownership interests", "Timeshare club memberships", "Vacation-exchange services", "Resort management services", "Consumer financing for vacation ownership", "Travel memberships", "Vacation booking and reservation services", "Vacation rental and travel technology services" ], "flagshipOfferings": [ "Club Wyndham", "WorldMark by Wyndham", "Margaritaville Vacation Club", "Accor Vacation Club", "RCI", "Travel + Leisure GO" ], "positioning": "A global vacation ownership and membership travel platform combining resort-based timeshare products, exchange services, vacation clubs, and travel technology.", "wikiPathKey": "Travel_+_Leisure_Co.", "wikiTitle": "Travel + Leisure Co.", "wikidataId": "Q303341", "sameAs": [ "https://www.travelandleisureco.com/", "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travel_%2B_Leisure_Co.", "https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q303341" ], "claimStatus": "unverified", "updatedAt": "2026-08-31T16:31:31.462Z", "generatedAt": "2026-08-22T18:34:41.772Z", "executives": [], "news": [ { "headline": "Pennsylvania investigates Wyndham vacation ownership sales practices", "year": 2016, "summary": "The Pennsylvania Real Estate Commission fined Wyndham and broker Craig Roberts a combined $15,000 in connection with sales-practice allegations at the company's Shawnee-on-Delaware location.", "tags": [ "scandal", "regulation" ], "isScandal": true, "sourceUrl": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travel_%2B_Leisure_Co." }, { "headline": "Wyndham settles Wisconsin sales-practice allegations", "year": 2016, "summary": "Wyndham settled similar allegations in Wisconsin and paid $655,000 in restitution to 29 consumers.", "tags": [ "scandal", "regulation" ], "isScandal": true, "sourceUrl": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travel_%2B_Leisure_Co." }, { "headline": "Former sales representative receives jury award in timeshare fraud retaliation case", "year": 2016, "summary": "A San Francisco jury awarded $20 million to former Wyndham timeshare sales representative Trish Williams, who alleged wrongful termination after reporting fraud involving elderly customers.", "tags": [ "scandal", "lawsuit" ], "isScandal": true, "sourceUrl": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travel_%2B_Leisure_Co." }, { "headline": "Investigations into Wyndham vacation ownership sales practices", "year": 2016, "summary": "Wyndham Vacation Resorts faced investigations into sales practices in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

During the 1990s, Hospitality Franchise Systems assembled a substantial lodging portfolio, acquiring Days Inn, Howard Johnson, Ramada, and Super 8 by 1995. It entered the vacation exchange sector in 1996 by acquiring Resort Condominiums International, or RCI.\n\nIn 1997, Hospitality Franchise Systems merged with CUC International to form Cendant Corporation. Cendant broadened the group's vacation ownership exposure through the acquisition of Fairfield Communities in 2001 and Trendwest Resorts in 2002. In 2005, Cendant acquired the Wyndham hotel brand from the Blackstone Group, adding a prominent identity that would later be used by the company's hotel and vacation ownership businesses.\n\nCendant's planned division into separate companies led to the formation of Wyndham Worldwide on July 31, 2006. The new company received Cendant's hotel and timeshare operations. It subsequently operated across several travel categories, including hotel franchising, vacation ownership, exchange services, and vacation rentals. In 2013, it acquired Shell Vacations Club for $102 million plus $153 million of assumed debt, strengthening its vacation ownership platform.\n\nThe company began simplifying its structure in the late 2010s. In August 2017, it announced that its hotel division would be separated from the rest of the business. The transaction closed on May 31, 2018, when Wyndham Hotels & Resorts became an independent publicly traded company. The remaining company changed its name to Wyndham Destinations and focused on vacation ownership, exchange, and membership travel. In 2018, it also sold its European vacation rental operations to Platinum Equity for approximately $1.3 billion. The divestment included several established rental brands, among them cottages.com, Hoseasons, James Villa Holidays, Landal GreenParks, and Novasol. In July 2019, Wyndham Destinations sold its North American vacation rental business and associated brands to Vacasa, and in August 2019 it acquired Alliance Reservations Network for $92 million.\n\nA further identity change occurred in 2021. Wyndham Destinations acquired the Travel + Leisure brand from Meredith Corporation and adopted Travel + Leisure Co. as its corporate name. The magazine itself remained a separately published People property under a long-term licensing agreement. The renamed company retained and developed its vacation ownership and travel membership operations rather than becoming a conventional magazine publisher.\n\nThe company's current business is organized around Vacation Ownership and Travel & Membership. Vacation Ownership includes the sale and marketing of vacation ownership interests, related consumer financing, resort development and acquisitions, and services for property owners' associations. Travel & Membership includes RCI's exchange activities, travel clubs, membership products, and technology businesses. The portfolio includes Club Wyndham, WorldMark by Wyndham, Margaritaville Vacation Club, Accor Vacation Club, RCI, and Travel + Leisure GO.
