Vanilla or chocolate --- a personal choice... (by KC):

To each his / her own, of course. Personally, I own (and I would ONLY own) fixed weeks. For me, that's because I want an iron clad GUARANTEE that I can leave my frozen home area and go to a specific, known, warm climate in February and March. If I owned "floating" weeks at the locations where I own fixed weeks, I would literally NEVER be able to even get in there in the winter. And if a schedule conflict arises, the rental value is sky high. I just don't want the uncertainty of playing the float ownership reservation game anyhow. ================================================
Re: >> I think buying a timeshare is only a good idea if you want to exchange and go to other locations. <<
I respectfully disagree, for the exact same reasons I cited above. In addition, I personally have no interest whatsoever in "exchanging". I bought the weeks I own to USE them and use them on predictable dates. Once again, people are different and there simply are no "universal" rules for what is "better". What works for one person simply may or may not work for another...
