Who bought Wyndham Vacation Resorts?

Vacasa to Acquire Wyndham Vacation Rentals for $162 Million.



Wyndham Vacation Resorts is now primarily operated by Travel + Leisure Co. (formerly known as Wyndham Destinations). In 2018, Wyndham Worldwide spun off its hotel business into Wyndham Hotels & Resorts and renamed its vacation ownership and exchange business Wyndham Destinations. In early 2021, the company acquired the iconic "Travel + Leisure" brand from Meredith Corporation and officially rebranded as Travel + Leisure Co. As of 2026, the company continues to expand its portfolio under brands like Club Wyndham and WorldMark by Wyndham. While they maintain a strategic partnership with Wyndham Hotels & Resorts to share the "Wyndham" name and loyalty program benefits, Travel + Leisure Co. is a distinct, publicly traded entity (NYSE: TNL) that holds the title of the world's largest vacation ownership and membership travel company, recently acquiring further resorts in Japan and Australia to bolster its global presence.
