Re: What are the costs to maintain a timeshare (by R P.):

Laura,

The cost at my timeshare for a primetime week in a luxury 2 bedroom with large living area between with full kitchen is $837 for the week. This includes free golf, free spa, and is on the beach. It has a large water park with lazy river, wave pools, and giant slides. I believe that if one can find a timeshare (on resale) that they truly love to go to, timeshares can be a bargain. Our eleven grandkids absolutely agree.

However, it does take some work to find the right one and that can be great fun also.

I'm somewhat confused ..... you say the cost of your week's stay at your resort was $837 ? Is this what you paid for your week on the resale market or is this the maintenance fee ? You have to add in the original cost in the equation, not just the maintenance fee.
