Thunderbird Resorts Poro Point

The Resort and Its Setting

Thunderbird Resorts Poro Point is a beachfront timeshare property in San Fernando, on the La Union coast of the Philippines. It operates under the Thunderbird Resorts brand as a vacation club, meaning owners hold a week (or points) that can be used at the resort itself or exchanged through Interval International. The beachfront position puts guests directly on the La Union coastline, with the water and the area's surf and sunset culture close at hand.

La Union and San Fernando

San Fernando is the capital of La Union province, a stretch of coast north of Manila known for long, easy-going beaches, a strong surf scene, and a more laid-back pace than the Philippines' bigger resort hubs. The province has become popular with domestic and regional travellers looking for a coastal break that still feels unhurried. Within easy reach of the resort, the Poro Point area adds a historic lighthouse and coastal viewpoints to the mix, giving owners and renters good reason to venture beyond the resort grounds as well as enjoy the beach on the doorstep.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own a week at Thunderbird Resorts Poro Point and want to sell or rent it out, BidMyTimeshare.com works as an 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. There's no commission on the sale — owners pay a single, one-time listing fee to advertise, which keeps more of the proceeds in your pocket compared with traditional resale channels.

Our records don't show Thunderbird Resorts Poro Point as having a published brand transfer fee, resale fee, or right-of-first-refusal clause, so it's best to confirm resale details directly with the resort's owners' association or management office. Before agreeing a price with a buyer, both sides should check: the current transfer or administration fee for changing the name on the deed or contract, how long that transfer typically takes to process, and the current annual maintenance fee the buyer will take on going forward. A resale buyer should also be clear on exactly what transfers — the usage right or points allocation itself — versus what doesn't automatically carry over, such as any accumulated loyalty perks or banked exchange credits, which can depend on the exchange company's own rules rather than the resort's.

Since the property is affiliated with Interval International, it's worth mentioning this in your listing, as buyers who already hold Interval memberships, or are open to joining, may see added value in being able to exchange their week for stays at other resorts worldwide.

What Renters Typically Look For

Renters searching for a week at a beachfront La Union property are usually after direct beach access, a straightforward booking process, and clarity on what's included — room type, sleeping capacity, and whether any resort fees apply on top of the rental price. Being upfront about unit size, view, and available travel dates will help your listing stand out to the right renter.

Practical Notes for Owners and Buyers

San Fernando is reachable via regional airports and the road network connecting to Manila and other major Philippine transport hubs, so factor typical domestic travel times into any rental or exchange booking. The dry season, from November to April, generally offers the most reliable weather for a beach-focused stay, while the wetter months bring more variable conditions typical of the Philippines' monsoon pattern. Anyone exchanging in through Interval International should check availability and booking windows directly with the exchange company ahead of time, and international visitors should confirm current passport and visa requirements before travelling.
