La Rinconada Tequisquiapan

The Resort and Its Setting

La Rinconada Tequisquiapan is an independent timeshare resort affiliated with RCI, sitting in the town of Tequisquiapan in Querétaro state, around 200 km northwest of Mexico City. As an independent property, it isn't part of a big international hotel brand — it's run by its own management and owners' structure, with RCI affiliation layered on top for exchange purposes. That suits owners who want a Mexican base that feels local rather than corporate, while still having the option to trade their week for a stay elsewhere.

Tequisquiapan and the Surrounding Area

Tequisquiapan has built its reputation on wine and water. The town is known as the "Land of Wine and Art," and the vineyards scattered through the surrounding countryside offer tastings and tours — many by appointment, so it's worth booking ahead rather than turning up on spec. The town itself has a colonial plaza, artisan craft markets, galleries and restaurants serving regional Querétaro cooking, all within walking distance of the centre.

The other big draw is the thermal springs that have drawn visitors here for generations — spas and hot-spring facilities are dotted around town and get busiest at weekends. For day trips, Querétaro City (a UNESCO World Heritage site with baroque colonial architecture) is about 60 km away, and Mexico City itself is within reach for a longer outing. The area rewards a hire car if you want to explore the wine route independently, though resort-organised tours are also an option.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

Owners who no longer use their week at La Rinconada Tequisquiapan can list it for resale or rent directly on BidMyTimeshare.com. It's a private, owner-to-owner marketplace: you set your own asking price, buyers and renters contact you through the platform, and we charge a one-time listing fee with 0% commission on the sale — no agency cut taken out of your proceeds.

Because La Rinconada Tequisquiapan is an independent resort, resale transfers go through the resort's own owners' association or management rather than a branded corporate transfer process. Before agreeing a price with a buyer, both parties should confirm directly with the resort's administration what the current transfer fee is, whether the association holds a right of first refusal on resales, and what the current annual maintenance fee stands at. These figures vary by resort and can change, so always get them confirmed in writing from the resort rather than relying on secondhand quotes.

A resale buyer typically takes on the week itself and the ongoing obligation to pay annual maintenance fees, plus access to RCI exchange privileges if the account is kept in good standing. Buyers should not assume anything beyond what the resort confirms in writing — ask specifically what is and isn't included before closing.

RCI Exchange Benefits

Because La Rinconada Tequisquiapan is RCI-affiliated, owners can deposit their week into RCI's exchange network and trade it for a stay at one of RCI's thousands of affiliated resorts worldwide. For renters and buyers, this is a genuine selling point: a week here isn't limited to visiting Tequisquiapan itself, provided RCI membership and exchange fees are kept current.

Practical Notes for Buyers and Renters

Renters and buyers researching this resort tend to ask about the same things: what week or season is on offer, whether the unit size suits their group, and what the annual maintenance fee covers. Always confirm the maintenance fee amount and payment schedule directly with the resort or current owner, as these figures are not fixed and should never be assumed from general resort marketing.
