PARSIPPANY, N.J. (August 28, 2014) -RCI , the global leader in vacation exchange and part of the Wyndham Worldwide family of brands (NYSE:WYN), recently added The Dunes Club in Coachella Valley to its network of affiliated resorts. The boutique-style residence club is a haven for golfers looking for a high-end experience in California.

"We chose to affiliate with RCI because, as the world's largest exchange program, it can help provide an effective and efficient way for us to market ownership at The Dunes Club," said Vanessa Estes of The Dunes Club. "Adding RCI's vacation exchange services for our owners allows us to drive more business while also minimizing marketing expenses. And, we believe RCI members who are golf-enthusiasts will be very excited about the new opportunity to visit our upscale Palm Springs resort."

Owners and RCI® subscribing members who visit The Dunes Club can enjoy an experience in the private gated community of the Bermuda Dunes Country Club, the original home of the PGA Bob Hope Classic. Guests here can access the same fairways where Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus and Phil Mickelson have played.

Originally a small hotel catering to the Hollywood elite, The Dunes Club maintains this high level of luxury in its accommodations with spacious residences that include state-of-the-art kitchens, comfortable living and dining areas, and serene bedrooms. The resort grounds also feature a variety of pools and hot tubs, so guests can enjoy time on and off the green.

"The beautiful Dunes Club is a wonderful addition to RCI's list of golf exchange options," said Gordon Gurnik, president of RCI. "The greens and resort facilities are impressive, and the luxurious accommodations will provide a home-away-from-home experience for RCI members. We are glad to have this property as part of our network, and look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship with The Dunes Club."
