Founder & President

Michael Burns founded Private Residence Resorts (PRR) in 1999 after a lifelong career in the resort industry. PRR was one of the first companies to introduce the concept of fractional ownership to vacation homebuyers in two of Idaho's most scenic mountain resort communities. As Owner and President, Burns continues to expand PRR's reach. Burns is currently exploring locations across the West for his next fractional ownership resort.

Burns began his career at Vacation Internationale, a pioneer company in points-based vacation timesharing co-founded by his father. He subsequently worked in the timeshare divisions for Marriott Hotels and The Walt Disney Company.

Burns holds a B.S. in political science from the University of Washington. He is a member of the American Resort Development Association, and is a frequent guest speaker at ARDA's conventions. Burns is also co-founder and chair of the special task force on marketing and sales practices for the resort timeshare industry. Burns lives in Mercer Island, Washington, where he enjoys sailing, skiing, bicycling and playing tennis with his four children.
