Tourist Stranded After Timeshare Folds] LAS VEGAS -- Time has run out for employees of a local timeshare operation. The owners of the Tahiti Village Resort have filed for bankruptcy protection.

Company officials confirmed that they shut down sales and marketing offices in Las Vegas, Florida and Hawaii.

One laid off employee said she wasn't given any warning, and she wasn't paid out for earned time off.

?It hurts me financially because I am in school fulltime, and now I'm unemployed. That was my only source of income. Without that vacation and sick time pay, I am worried how am I going to pay my rent, my bills -- for my college, especially," said Grace Funcion.

Funcion said when she finally got her manager on the phone Wednesday, she was told she was lucky to get a paycheck at all.

One tourist in town from Michigan said the timeshare has left her stranded in Sin City.

?Well , Circus Circus just informed us Tahiti Village has gone out of business, and we cannot stay here after all. And so we're like, we made these reservations months ago," said Gloria Richardson.

Richardson said she and her husband paid Tahiti a $120 deposit, and they aren't booked to fly back home to Michigan until Monday.
