What is the shortest timeshare presentation?
About 90 minutes, offered by Marriott and Spinnaker in our tracked data. That is a real edge over the 120-minute sessions run by Hyatt and Westgate's event-style previews. Across everything we track, the average disclosed presentation is 116 minutes, so a 90-minute pitch saves you roughly a half hour versus the norm. Only 47% of deals disclose a required presentation at all, so the shortest option can be no disclosed presentation, covered on our no-presentation list. The table ranks brands by disclosed length.

Short pitch vs low price: the real trade
The shortest presentation is not always the best deal. Marriott runs a 90-minute pitch but averages $590, while Hyatt's 120-minute session comes with a $156 average, so you trade 30 extra minutes for hundreds saved. The right pick depends on whether time or money is scarcer for you. Use our gift-per-minute ranking to see which pitches pay best per minute, and the hourly-rate calculator to convert your own numbers. For deals with no pitch at all, see the honest no-presentation list.
