Dealing in timeshares, Hilton Grand Vacations Company, LLC develops, manages, markets, and operates a system of brand-name vacation club ownership resorts. Resort villas are jointly owned by members who have exclusive use of the properties for limited periods of time (also known as timeshares). Club members can also exchange their intervals for vacations at affiliated resorts worldwide. Various timeshare websites report timeshare owner critiques of the HGVC property experience.
A year after investing, HNA Group was in talks to sell some or all of its 25% share in Hilton Grand Vacations, a timeshare business which had spun off from Hilton Worldwide Holdings the year before.[2]

Right of first refusal
When selling an HGVC account, each owner will be required to submit their purchase agreement contract to Hilton. Hilton reserves the right to purchase the ownership directly from the existing owner, thus refusing the sale to the buyer.
