Re: Dues/maintainence fees/free timshare? (by Don P.):

Why purchase a timeshare when you can rent one for less that the owner pays in maintenance fees. You can look for rentals on this site and others.

If you decide to purchase you will commit yourself to a lifetime of ever increasing maintenance fees and assessments . Look through the forums and you will see how many people want to give away their timeshares just to get out from under the fees. You will also find that there are high fees for exchanging your unit for another at a different timeshare if you can find one that suits you.

My advice would be to rent one and not get involved in the world of corporate greed that has destroyed timeshare ownership .
