Elite Island Resorts partners with nonprofit organizations by donating resort accommodation certificates as in-kind gifts for fundraising events. There are no fees for participation and no consignment required — the nonprofit retains 100% of all proceeds. Certificate holders receive resort accommodation stays and are responsible for the all-inclusive nightly supplement fee, which covers all meals, beverages, activities, and resort amenities.

Certificates provide the room-only portion of your stay at an approximate 40% discount off general public pricing — making them one of the most coveted auction and raffle prizes at fundraising events nationwide.

Each certificate includes a minimum of three complimentary rooms with a total of 30 nights of accommodations across your choice of seven distinct 4-star and 5-star resorts. Pure vacation stays — no timeshare presentations, no hidden obligations.

Your certificate expiration date is a "Book By" date, not a "Travel By" date. To activate your certificate, you must book your first room by the expiration date printed on your certificate.

Any unused certificate nights may be gifted to family and friends. Contact our team at certificates@eliteislands.com for assistance with the transfer process.
