Welcome to Summer Winds.

A vacation state of mind…that is what Summer Winds is all about. The Summer Winds Family of Resorts is the place that vacation owners return to year after year to refresh, relax and reconnect. They come to refresh and escape from the responsibilities that fill their busy days. They take advantage of the opportunity to relax and follow their bliss. And, they reconnect with what is important, whether it is family, friends or themselves.

At a Summer Winds resort, the opportunities are endless, the resorts are spectacular and the service is unparalleled. Summer Winds’ founders, Joseph Pat Joyce and Dawn M. Joyce are no strangers to the resort industry. Joined by partners Darren Abbott and Rich Dowdell, they collectively contribute more than 75 years of experience and success in the vacation ownership industry to Summer Winds Resort Services.

Adding new resorts, new partnerships, building a seasoned and diverse executive management team headed by Christopher Varisco and setting new standards in the vacation ownership industry, Summer Winds offers vacation opportunities to its owners that are limited only by the imagination.
