The Resort & Setting
Now Sapphire Riviera Cancun by UVC-4 Nights is part of the Hyatt Inclusive Collection and sold in 4-night vacation packages, a format suited to a long weekend or a short mid-week break rather than a full week away. It's located in Puerto Morelos, a coastal town roughly 45 minutes south of Cancun International Airport, and the resort is affiliated with RCI, which gives owners the option to exchange their stay for other RCI-network properties if they'd rather travel elsewhere.
Puerto Morelos & the Riviera Maya
Puerto Morelos keeps more of its original character than Cancun's hotel zone — colourful fishing boats, a walkable town centre, local seafood spots and small artisan shops, with a beach right on the doorstep. It works well as a base for the wider Riviera Maya: cenotes for swimming and snorkelling are a short drive away, Playa del Carmen is about 35 km south for shopping and nightlife, Xcaret Park is roughly 45 km away, and the Tulum ruins sit about 55 km down the coast. For owners and renters, this combination of a relaxed home base and easy day-trip access is a big part of the appeal.
Selling or Renting a Week Here
If you're ready to move on from your Now Sapphire Riviera Cancun timeshare, BidMyTimeshare.com lets you list it directly as a private, owner-to-owner sale or rental — you set the asking price, interested buyers or renters contact you through the platform, and there's no broker commission, just a one-time listing fee to get your ad live.
Before listing, it's worth understanding the resale process on the Hyatt Vacation Club side, since this affects what a buyer actually receives. Hyatt doesn't publish an official resale transfer fee; reported figures range from around $500 to $600, depending on the source and timing (RedWeek cites $500, though that figure looks dated, while one owner reported around $600 for closing and transfer in 2025). Hyatt also holds a right of first refusal for up to 30 days, meaning Hyatt can step in and match an agreed sale before it's finalised — so build that window into your timeline. Transfers generally take 8–10 weeks once a sale is agreed, according to reports. One important restriction to flag to buyers upfront: ownership purchased on the resale market cannot be converted into World of Hyatt points, so be clear about this in your listing to avoid disputes later.
What Renters Typically Look For
Renters booking a stay here are usually drawn to the 4-night format for a short Caribbean break, the Puerto Morelos location as an alternative to busier Cancun hotels, and the reassurance of booking through an established brand collection. Clear details on what's included, the exact dates available, and how check-in works will make a rental listing easier to fill.
Practical Notes for Owners and Buyers
Anyone buying a resale week here should confirm the current annual maintenance fee and the exact transfer fee directly with Hyatt Vacation Club before agreeing a price, since these aren't published figures and can change. Sellers should factor in the 8–10 week transfer window and the 30-day right of first refusal when setting expectations with a buyer, and should be upfront that resale ownership doesn't carry World of Hyatt points conversion.

Travel Tips
Winter months (December–March) are the busiest time to book, so plan ahead if you want specific dates. Puerto Morelos is about 45 minutes from Cancun International Airport, making transfers straightforward, and renting a car is worth considering if you want to explore cenotes, Tulum or Playa del Carmen independently. Autumn months can bring occasional tropical rain, so pack for both sun and showers.
