Your content and coverage is good in this video. This is called "Time Share Holidays". Club Mahindra, Sterling resorts, Karma group resorts and many other resorts sell these kind of holidays. Adding few additional points why we should avoid these kind of memberships- 1. Since these kind of resorts mostly located outside of cities, the cab charges gets doubled (since most of the tourist packages start from the city center). Cab drivers charge both to and fro charges. 2. Middle class people depend on Auto Rickshaws and busses which do not come to these places. 3. People plan for a trip in combination of 2 to 3 places. For example: Kullu, Kasol and Manali. In this case, If you want to visit Kasol, then you have to book other resort/hotels separately. Because there is no Club Mahindra resort in Kasol. For this you have to spend extra money. Also if you do so, your every year's 7 nights will not be utilized. 5. Usually you plan your holidays first (preparing itinerary) and then book your stays (hotels). But in this case, you have to book your stays first and then itinerary. Because you never know whether you get rooms in Club Mahindra resorts of your desired location or not.

Strange enough. If we deposit 5 lakh in a bank and get 7.5% on it, the annual interest itself will be 37500 and 25000 net of taxes if you are in a tax bracket of 30%. If you add another 20000 to 25000 as ASF, then you have around 45k to 50k in your hand which is adequate to book a resort of your choice @5000 to 10000 a day depending upon your period of stay with a complimentary breakfast.

I think is a realistic assessment. I do not know how can anyone take a subscription of club Mahindra after seeing this video.

Hello sir, I have also been cheated by Club Mahindra, I don't get rooms when I get holiday. When I contact customer support team they say it is not possible in your season, please upgrade to a higher season. Every year they charge "asf" and this amount keeps increasing every year. If I delay the "asf"payment they charge RS 750 as late payment fee. I also suggest everyone not to take membership from club Mahindra

Agree in toto! We are senior citizens and very small eaters. To pay 3k+,for two meals, per head, for two people, per day is painful. The resorts mostly are in wilderness with approach roads so bad that you are confined to the resort, bcos cab charges are so high. Even if you have your vehicle, going through the bad approach road for a long distance to eat out, is no fun. Though the breakfast[paid] and dessert is good the food is mediocre to really bad in some resorts. The non veg stuff is awful, you have to eat only veg stuff. Our accumulated days due to not using them during the covid period, were cancelled Getting a confirmed booking even two months in advance is difficult and tiresome. Nowadays you have a lot of options, particularly if you are travelling without underage child or children.........like homestays, which offer great local food and guided tours and other help. And when you holiday ,you use the room only for about 12 hours as daytime is spent exploring the city/town etc. Well this is a personal opinion based on personal experience.

Hi Amar, You are absolutely right, Please add interest part also. if you put 5 Lacs in bank FD you will get around 40 K per year. So this membership is around 55K per Year. Fortunately I have not fooled by them.

They pay attention to new clients, ignore already paid clients. Don't give advance money to anyone, they will take u as nominal

We also taken the membership, its really nice and secure first if all, we took it for the purpose of relaxation and travelling somewhere. Taking a Holiday membership motivates you to go to places you never would visit otherwise!!

Even if a single person tells negative about a business I don't invest in it. It's a iceberg phenomenon. Only 10 person will say about it 90 person are crying alone.

Completely agree. It costs 10K+ per night , and even BF is not complimentary. Ridiculous and sheer exploitation after one has taken up the membership. Sad but. true. Hope one day Mr Anand Mahindra will listen to us and make things better. Thanks

You are right Sir. Food quality is worst at Club Mahindra. Last week we were at reort at Netrang which is near to Statue of Unity in Gujrat. We got a food package in Rs.1460 per person includes B/f and dinner. Food was not worth of Rs.700 also. Bad experience

Bhai 5 lack ki ek fix deposit karwa dete interest ko yearly withdraw karwa lete lagbhag 25 se 35 thousand milege kahi bhi ja sakte ho paisa bhi aap ka rahega

In 2006 ASF amount of Red Studio was Rs 3500 only But now it is more than 19k. What a Loot.

I'm also taken club Mahindra membership. What you told 100% correct. They are looting like anything. Never take club Mahindra membership in your life.

we were also thinking of taking a membership .. later on we found that its not feasible financially as well as practically .. also your video made the decision more clear

Thank you so much for your honest comment without fear. Please raise such kind of awareness and make people aware not to waste hard earned money

Its better to start a mutual fund SIP of same monthly amount for your holidays in a good multicap fund.

I have been member past 5 years..I proudly say I have the BEST experience..full paisa wasool ...luxury at economical price 🎉

Dear dr, this is all told by them when you buy membership, you are fool to buy inspite knowing and understanding

I also visited club Mahindra madhobra... it's a very old property needs to be redone with dirty carpets.. I have a purple membership,still i don't find any resort available according to the best time to visit as , resorts get filled up in few hours only,so you are left with choice to go in thise resorts which are out of season kind.. food is definitely very expensive.

Club Mahindra is for thos who wants luxury...any resort will not cost less than 12-15k in peak time and 8k in lean time..their resort are very well managed and you feel pampered specially if you have kids....book and forget type of holidays...luxury cost you..and you are only paying maximum 50 percent of the actual cost of luxury...they have tieups with 5 stars hotels aborsd too with minimal exchange fees...I booked a Radisson in Phuket for 3000 rs against its cost of 18k per night...so if you want luxury, fantastic managed resorts go for club Mahindra..I am a member and totally enjoy the resorts...my kid loves all the resorts of them..they charges about 2000 for 3 meals plus high tea..buffets have wide menu and local delicacies...overall this is wise spend by me and very happy

You are correct, club Mahindra member ship lekar galti kar di, 😢 ab kya kare ???

Moreover 14 holidays of mine are cancelled as you can’t have more than 21 holidays in your app if numbers exceed they will be cancelled and if you try booking you won’t get

Omg... Thank you for the warning... Kudos to people like you... I was thinking to get club mahindra membership.. Luckily i saw your video.. God bless u

Finally bacha kiya sir ji aapne mujhe....aaj hi buy krne wala tha m membership 😢😢😢

Terrible. Yiu never get the location yiu need even if you try 2 months! During pandemic, nobody took any holiday. They just made those days get lapsed! Wah club mahindra. Heights if Empathy. Even if you write to Anand Mahindra, any ither product, you will get a reply. But not for CMH. Even he doesn't believe in this scam. If it's a car that you buy, you can sell with sone depreciation. But these holidays are so worthless that you wont find a buyer even at half price! Some resorts are poorly maintained. If you go to Wayanad for example, you'll see the floor around the pool literally collapsing under your feet! Shame.

Thanks for the video you saved many, I can say this because I only went for a coffee on their Kanatal resort on last Sunday and the experience was not good at all.

My Dear Aman Singh, You appear to have been PAID to curse Club Mahindra. I have Red Period, One bedroom membership of 25 years since 2010. Your statements are INCORRECT. I paid close to Rs. 5 lakhs for 25 years x 7 days. Hence Rs. 5,00,000/25/7 = Rs.2857/- per day for a ONE Bedroom accommodation which accommodates 4 ADULTS. ASF today is around Rs.28,000/- (For 7 days). So Rs.28,000/7 = 4000 per day. Total expenditure Rs. 2857 + 4000= 6857. Kindly get me accommodation for FOUR ADULTS at Rs.6857/- = Rs.1714.25 per adult anywhere in INDIA

Thanks Sir, I am going to subscription but now change my mood,🙏

well said, i took 3 yr membership and no use of it. approx 8 K /night without food with advance plan of 2 months.

It's all very true ,but I don't understand why people become a member before calculating it first hand .

Immediately cancelled scheduled appointment with Club Mahindra manger for joining and execution if related documentation of this membership #Thankful #Eyeopener

Club Mahindra garibo ke liye nahi....it's for elite class....white studio membership is for off season...I am a Purple Member since 2013....never had a problem with the same

Bilkul sahi hai, sare members ro rahe hein, par in logon ko koi farak nahin padta.

Thanks for making us all aware....I was approached by Club Mahindra in 2019, that time I didn't take, because of the subscription charges and upfront payment amount. I didn't want myself to restrict to Club Mahindra properties which are indeed remote in most hill stations

good information sir, but i think they explain very well during presentation, i have also attend there presentation but i did not take that memberships. you should think twice before you take any decision. and your concerns regarding food and complementary breakfast , they told every one that there is nothing complementary in resort but only stay. and let me clear again am not a member of club mahindra,

Same is the Problem with OYO Rooms, On Website they will take Booking, They will take Money, But when You will reach Hotel, There is No Booking, Hotel is Not in the OYO List, Customer Support is Useless, They will Not Return Money.

If you are not traveling internationally and are traveling locally then you can take Club Mahindra's three-year economic plan which is around Rs 160000. Every year if you go on a local trip then the expenditure is around Rs 50-55000. In such a situation, you can prefer this economic plan of Club Mahindra. According to me, this is not much for a resort experience.

Sir didn't u file a case against them as I was also cheated by Caribbean Holiday international and I have logged a complaint in Consumer forum and beside this raised a dispute in bank against the merchant.

You are right, ye to tumne kam kar hi bataya hai,2 month pahle nahi 4 months advance me booking open hoti hai.Everything chargeable + GST extra.If you not pay ASF in time they block the membership,you can't further use as par your requirement.Travel desk so called are outsourced,rates are exorbitant. Old members even don't want to take there help becoz most of the time they will misguide.They are initially purchasing new resorts by our membership money & later maintaining it by our ASF money.We at all places have to pay market rates for availing any facility.After 25 years hamara khel khatam,unki property apni ban gayi.This is all the game. I also disappointed after taking it, can't do anything now.No resale value.Have to pay ASF regularly otherwise it will be blocked. Other game is of partner hotels,will deduct one night & we have to pay exchange fee that is also too exorbitant. So please be aware before get trapped.😮

बहुत बहुत धन्यवाद सर.. सही जानकारी देने के लिए.. मेंबरशिप लेने के लिए प्लान कर रहा था.. पर अब पुरी तरह से कैंसिल

Dear friend I am a purple member still not getting holidays 4 months before all are in category of waiting list

हमारा govt guest house सही है। हर जगह इंडिया में holiday home है। 330/night double bed room AC मिलता है। साल में जितनी मर्जी बार book करो। बुक दो महीने पहले करना पड़ता है। Property भी premium जगह पर है, कैंटीन में खाना भी बहुत सस्ता है।तीन टाइम का खाना मिलता है,paid है। बस मिलता govt employees को है।

Sir I am also gadha... I purchased sterling membership before 10 yrs, but ab pasta ke kya fayda

Thanks for cancelling my plan to acquire Mahindra club membership...

I am a new member and while booking our first trip with them realised how badly i have also fallen in this trap. Wish i had seen your this video before taking the membership.

I had been to club mahindra event where they quoted me 7.8L as membership fee for red studio for 25 years. I was quite angry how he was not ready to negotiate. Somehow that day's event guests list was leaked I guess. In a week I got call form travel agency which is similar to club mahindra, called "travelers mind", I visited their office they gave me 10 years of membership which had 200 properties tied up with them for 2.6L , including club mahindra. And they had no AMC.

You Are absolutely right. It takes around 15000/night . Mine is RED 1BR which is even more expensive, above that 30000+ ASF, FOOD SEPERATELY AND GAMES ALSO SEPERATELY. PER NIGHT COSTS OIR FAMILY NOT LESS THAN 30000 HERE. NO POINT IN REGRETTING NOW. SO JUST TRYING TO FINISH IT OF. ALREADY HAVE PAID A HUGE AMOUNT. COULD HAVE STAYED AT 7STAR PROPERTIES

Yes sir.bilkul sahi baat he hamare sathe bhi frod kiya he club Mahindra ne or complan bhi nahi sunte😢

Bhai thank you for saving my harden money... I was about to invest in club mahindra holiday packages however now big no

Bhai agar apne thoda finance pada hota to ek concept hota hai oppurtunity cost agar aap 5 lakh rupees ko kisi bekar mutual fund me bhi invest kr dete to wo bhi apko 10% CAGR. Milega matlab 52,000 approximately milta aapko aur apka 5 lakh rupees bhi saved rehte aur agar aap 5 lakh laga ke sirf 40,000 hi withdraw krte to aaapko har saal 40 hazar milte plus apka 5 lakh rupees 25 saal baad 15 lakh ho jata

I am also victim club mahindra.He makes with our money like anything to build resorts in remote areas, charging yearly maintenabce. One worst thing is lapsing holidays which can not utilise more 21 days can not recovered. Another offering these resorts to outsiders, everytime they say all ready booked. We have to spend lot of money for food, travelling, ..etc This is not suitable for middle class, suitable for those have lot of money nothing to do.

You explained it very well…I was thinking to buy the membership you saved me!! Will never go for it

Sir inke khilaf consumer court me jana chahiye ye log mujhe b loot chuke hai

Mujhe to saare expenses btaye they... fir bhi m pagal bn gaya :(

18500 Membership Fee yearly 4,57000/- / 25 yrs + 20,000/- ASF + 36,500/- Interest Loss 4,57,000/- X 8% FD Rate Total cost 75,000/- Yearly Per Night Cost Atleast 11,000/- per night for Stay only Food Charge & Pick & Drop charges Atlest 3,000/- per day extra total cost 14 to 15 k

I will give you a simple example of the Club Mahindra resort which I personally know, If you plan Andaman Trip with Club Mahindra then you have to book a resort in Symphony Samudra, Port Blair which is 30 km away from central Port Blair. You have to pay around 1500 rupees to get there from Port Blair airport, then the next day to visit Cellular jail and other attractions the same amount twice, then the next day to catch the jetty to go to Havelock Island you have to pay the same amount. Symphony Samudra, Port Blair is in the exact opposite direction of central of Port Blair.

Mujhe bhi yahi problem aa rahi hai 1. Pahle to 2-3 month pahle booking karwani hoti h 2. Jaha jana hota h waha fully booked hota h fir ye kahte h k yaha chale jayo waha chale jayo 3. Jitni ye ASF lete h utne me vaise hi 3-4 din book ho jate h wo bhi apni pasand ki location pe 4. Room old fashioned hote hain Purane door purane type ke washroom

Club Mahindra ka membership le kar agar Paisa wasool karna hai to aisi jagah nahi jao ap. Aise jagah jaao jahanpe per night charge 50000 ke uper ho..

Yes u r right. Never take membership of club mahindra. But we r victim. 😢. And the worst part is we can’t get rid of this membership.

I would like to make some corrections, i have obtained membership Red studio for 4.25 lacs, if I travel in lesser season I van travel for 10 nights. So, now let check calculations per night rate, if you keep your money in bank you will get around 30k as an intrest, if it will be used by 12 years then it comes to 8 lakhs divided by 25, it comes 32 k and as of now paying 18k ASF, It comes for 10 nights, so it comes 5k/- per night.

U have one resoer experience. And membership for 1 year ,I have been enjoying the membership for so many years ,please escalation in rates of rooms after 5 or 20 years u will not get a room for 20 thousand per night years

very informative video!

अगर हमने रिझाॅल्ट बुक किया और फिर 2महिने पहले कॅन्सल किया तो कितना पैसा कट होता है अपना..क्या है उनके कॅन्सलेशन चार्जेस..कृपया बताइएगा.

U have added a subscriber man Really an eye opening video

Only advantage you can say in long term membership is beating the hospitality inflation at 8%. The room that costs you 5000 today will cost 20000 after 18 years, but it will still cost you 5000 if you pre-purchase it. You are basically hedging on the CAGR of India's hospitality being more than the bank interest rate. Apart from this all your points are accurate.

After few days, CM will start charging for inhaling fresh air in their garden. Everything is chargeable now in their resorts. Please don’t waste your money in taking membership of this club.

Awesome... u open my eye, i was suppose to book... thanks bro for saving me...

Thanks for sharing your views. I was thinking to buy membership, but searching for reviews. You saved my money.

Mere pass club Mahindra ki white studio 10 year ki membership he last month June me hi Mr club Mahindra assonora gaya tha jaha mene total 15 studio book Kiya tha or meri only 9 night use huva tha it's a very good property and mene must mind lagega use Kiya tha I recommend k aap club Mahindra ki membership lo superb all the resort and activities

Very informative information.

Sir Ji Thank you for the information You have just shared experience of Masobra Resort Kindly tell every one also it is tie-up resort Have you been kandaghat ,Naldehra ? It's worth membership, it's giving to you 25 years accomdation Today if you want to book any holidays for 2adult and 2kids in any 4 star property They will charge you for normal room 10000+ taxes for 2 adult only and if you are adding your kids then charges will approx 15k + taxes for seven nights it would be 105000 + taxes for one year and for 25 years 25lakh + taxes And inflation will be there 5% minimum After adding inflation cost will be for 25 years 55,lakh + taxes And you have taken membership only 5lakh that too instalment for 4 years ,it means you are using and paying Club Mahindra is very worthfull membership ,it is giving to you push for quality holidays without fear , Now days scenario changed Aap kahi bhi nahi ruk sakte ho ,kya pata Jo hotel hum saste ke chakkar me book kar rahe ho waha par room me camera laga ho , aap kya kar loge Bhai aap ke point ko mai counter karta hoo 1. Aap ne bola ek saath hi holidays Lena padta hai 7 night ka Ans - bhai mujhe pata hai ki koi bhi ek saath chhutti nahi le sakta hai 7 nights ki ,that's why Split option is there which is 2+2+3 means aap alag alag time me apni chhutti le sakte ho Kindly jhooth mat bolo 2. Food mahanga hai Ans - bhai they have 2 type of food option 1 buffet 2 ala carte Aapko Jo bhi chahiye kindly ala carte me order Karo and get 25% discount Membership is worth and believe me in every holidays you will save your 1 lakh rs. With quality and fearless holidays If you

Iam a red studio member I 100% agree with you

I paid all the money not knowing what I got into . Still I’m to go for a resort because my days of leave do not match with their vacancy .

I was about to have the Clube Mahindra membership. U ve coverd all the points very well. if we plan a private Tour, we can get good package & discount, too. Thanks , u ve saved atleast one person from cheating

Thanks , you saved me dear bro ❤

It is TRUE that food and facilities are costly but variety is also there. This man is telling some factual lies also. I also stayed at Mashobra in January but no problem regarding hot water, cleanliness or other things. Temperature in Mashobra never drps to -12 degrees. If you take membership everything is crystal clear then why so many grievances. If someone plans then one can enjoy 14 nights in a year instead of 7 nights.

Agree doctor, they are making fool to people, its like a scam of chain business 😂😂

Very informative video. Keep posting such videos. Thanks for saving so many people from CM

You should have examined the issues before buying the membership.

Also after paying a lot of charges..even breakfast is not included. Any simple hotel offer breakfast for free of cost.

Completely agree with you i am also a member. Even after complaining and requesting them for atleast giving complementary breakfast my requests fell on deaf ears. It is complete waste of your hard earned money .

Really very bad decision taken by us but we want to cancel this membership plz help me we are requested them many times but they told no cancellation don't know how to come from this headache 😢

Seriously thank you so much for these details I was about to buy it....!!!!! Really thank you.... You saved my lakhs of money......

Thanks for sharing your experiences this is really an eye opener

रेल रिजर्वेशन जैसा है रिसोर्ट बुकिंग क्लब महिंद्रा में। अगर कुछ चीजें सुधार लें ये, तो बहुत अच्छा है, बरना नहीं लेना ही अच्छा है।

Absolutely true..... One should not fall prey to this Shitty Club Mahindra membership. One if my life's worst decision is to taking their membership and now repenting like anything. Sincere advice to one and all......Please refrain yourself from these Club Mahindra people.

Bhai fraud hai ye sab maine bhi liya tha baad me call hi received nahi kiya sales person ne manine mail bhi kiya tha par no answer sales person PUNE ke the aatish and amruth fraud hai ye sab mahindra club holiday pls be safe

Absolutely right Terrible deal for time share owners

Thnx sir fir this information. I was going to purchase club Mahindra membership, but after your video I changed my mind. Thank you so much. Hope my decision will give you satisfaction coz you succeed to stop me for taking club Mahindra package.

Good explanation.. you saved me from making this mistake, thanks! But the audio quality is really poor

Sabse pehle aap 5 nights ka logic band karo..it is 7 nights..aur main ASF pay Kia to mujhe 2 nights free die. Aaj k date me MMT pe dekho..resorts aapko 15-20K padega per night

I am also victim .maine bhi 3 years wala membership liya h .kamine le ja rhe 8 thousand per month aur 50thousand downpayment kara liye 10 thousand ka jewellery voucher wo nhi diye itne din ho gye

Apart from membership fees in lakhs there are Annual Subscription Fees of around 20k to 28k. Which i feel is not at all worth.

Yes, we are paying money only for stay. Na to ye hume travel krate, na hi lunch dinner, no sightseeing.. money just only for stay.. and its acualllty high

U r right.We also fooled by Club Mahindra….

I was about to take.... your video works for me like eye opener. Thank you so much 👍🙏

Iam also victim of this shity club Mahindra They never tell you about asf charges which is huge

AAP dr ho na aches puch ke membership Lena chahiye maintainece ko Kharcha hai salary dene palate hai Aur 5 star hotels mai bhi aapko 12000 lagate hi hai pick time mai kahi bhi booking nahi milti fight ka bhi charge jada hi hota hai agar pahele nahi book kiya to jo mann mai aahe wo Matt bolo bhai

sorry if i missed but what is the name of resort
