Viking Club

The Resort and Its Setting

Viking Club operates as an independent timeshare property in Sharm El Sheikh, with an RCI affiliation that lets owners tap into RCI's exchange network rather than being limited to their home resort alone. It's a vacation ownership setup rather than a hotel: owners (and RCI exchange guests) hold usage rights to the property on a recurring basis, typically a set week or points allocation each year. The resort sits within Sharm El Sheikh's established coastal tourism zone, giving owners and guests a base from which to reach the city's beaches, dive sites and amenities.

Sharm El Sheikh: The Area and What There Is to Do

Sharm El Sheikh is Egypt's best-known Red Sea resort town, built around a coastline where desert meets turquoise water. Divers come here specifically for the visibility and reef life, and the region is genuinely one of the world's more accessible spots to learn or log dives. Beyond the water, Naama Bay is the main strip for restaurants, shops and nightlife, while the Old Market area in central Sharm offers a more traditional souk experience with spices, textiles and handicrafts. Ras Muhammad National Park, a short drive south, protects some of the area's most dramatic reef and cliff scenery and is a popular day trip for anyone staying in the area. Desert excursions — quad biking, camel trekking, stargazing trips — are also widely available and don't require a diving certification to enjoy.

Selling or Renting a Week at Viking Club

If you own at Viking Club and want to sell or rent your week, BidMyTimeshare.com works as a direct owner-to-owner marketplace: you list your week yourself, set your own asking price, and interested buyers or renters contact you directly through the platform. We charge a one-time listing fee and take 0% commission on the sale or rental — there's no cut taken when a deal closes.

As Viking Club is an independent resort, resales aren't processed through a large branded transfer department. Instead, any transfer of ownership typically goes through Viking Club's own owners' association or on-site management, who will confirm the process, the transfer fee, and whether a right of first refusal applies to the sale. Before agreeing a price with a buyer, sellers should request written confirmation of the current transfer fee and the latest annual maintenance fee from the resort, since these figures aren't published centrally and can change. Buyers, for their part, should ask the same questions before committing — and should clarify whether the week being sold carries RCI exchange affiliation, since that status needs to be confirmed with RCI directly as part of any ownership change.

Practical Notes for Owners and Renters

Renters typically look for clear, specific details: the season or exact dates the week falls in, unit size and sleeping capacity, and proximity to the beach and to Naama Bay's restaurants and shops. If you're listing a rental, including this kind of detail — along with whatever you can confirm about the unit itself — will make your ad far more useful to prospective guests than a generic description of the destination.

Sharm El Sheikh International Airport, roughly 20km from the resort, is the main arrival point for both owners and renters, with direct flights from a range of European and regional hubs. Anyone travelling to use or hand over a week should factor in transfer time from the airport and check current transport options (hotel transfer, taxi, or car hire) in advance.
