timeshares - where to start?
first, we own one in Los Cabos, bought in May, 2001.
it's beautiful, on the beach, 2br 3ba, sleeps 6, full kitchen and all that resort stuff.
we shopped at Walmart for beer and groceries, and 2 trips to Costco for tequila, baileys and few other items while we were there for a week last month. drove about 400 miles in the rental car, exploring east cape (Los Barilles) and west baja up to Los Cerritos.
depositing our weeks with Interval International has given us opportunities to travel more, and see other places.
the resort itself is really nice, but it's not for everyone.
I like PDO even more than Los Cabos, so that's where we're at.
Mayan is available for us to trade - not interested.
we do have plans for Olympic Peninsula next year for a week, and also a request in for a week in the Caribberan
(either Antigua or Tortola). if you'll use it, and can afford it, timeshares are ok way to travel.
we wouldn't buy again, but the fact we have it, we'll keep using it and going elsewhere with our deposited weeks.
