I am interested in purchasing the Westin Ka'anapali Ocean Resort Villas. I am fairly new at the timeshare concept and will appreicate all opinions. I am quite impressed with the SPG program and am already a gold member.
I am wondering if I should wait for the North Villas resales to become more available or purchase "pre owned" ones on the existing buildings. I am also wondering if I am better off purchasing the "resale" ones from the developer. I do realize that the price will be higher the then general resale market but it may offer some perks that I may be interested in. Also, I find the annual fees + taxes being almost $2000 is quite high, I am wondering if I am better off just renting. Thanks for you thoughts on this.

The Westin Ka'anapali is a beautiful property and the maint. fees seem high but look at the cost to rent this timeshare. Most people on the resale market charge between $3,000 to $5,000 for the original and the north villas gather more. The property can be very profitable if you rent on a yearly basis. These propertys rent VERY well!
