Travel + Leisure Co. acquired Yes& Vacations and its management arm, affecting seven Maui timeshare resorts. Many interval owners are confused about what changed and some are desperate to exit their ownership, with no easy path to do so.
- Seven Maui timeshare resorts are now under the Travel + Leisure Co. umbrella after its acquisition of Yes& Vacations and affiliated manager Soleil Management.
- The seven properties identified by owners are: Sands of Kahana, Kahana Beach Resort, Kahana Villa Resort, The Gardens at West Maui, Hono Koa, Maui Beach Vacation Club, and Maui Banyan Vacation Club.
- Travel + Leisure Co. has not publicly clarified which properties transferred or what specifically changed at each resort, leaving owners uncertain about their rights and who controls operations.

- Owner reactions are mixed, with some hoping new management improves the experience while others are focused on getting out of their ownership obligations.
