I was in Key West and decided to check out the three Hyatt timeshare there. I did not get inside any units as they were sold out and I was staying at a Hilton so this is more a location and impression of the grounds, etc.
Uber just started in July 1, 2017 and was easy to book, but the prices were very high (like $10 to go 1 mile) and hopefully that will go down with more competition.
Sunset Harbor
This was my favorite location as it was walking distance to everything. I definitely would want this location and would prefer the buildings looking into the pool, not the one that looks into the marina. The grounds were nice and the manager states 90% owners use their own week. The only negatives were the lack of parking (had to use paid garage) and the potential of noise from the marina. For me, this is the best property to own at. However, I can see why some people may not like the location as on cruise ship days, the downtown can get super busy with cruise tourists.
Beach House
This was a nice property that was very relaxing and seemed much larger and quieter than Sunset Harbor. This is more a family resort and had tons of free parking. I thought about buying here as the price is much lower than SH and the dues are much lower too. The major issue that that every time you want to go to dinner or Duval street area, you have to take a cab or Uber and that can be a hassle and expensive. I can see why people like this as it is more relaxed than SH and still allows you to enjoy Duval when you want. I think this offers great value vs the SH, but if you want to be within walking of Duval, then you should focus on SH
Windward Pointe
This was not very interesting to me at all. Yes, the grounds were nice, but I think the location is terrible. It is next to the airport, no access to the beach or water, and next to a busy highway. Also it did not have any view of the sunset. I would be happy to trade into this resort with a cheap timeshare, but I would not ever want to buy here.
