I got a match for Anchorage Resort in Key Largo for Feb. Reviews are mixed. This is not the level of TS I would normally stay in, but I know for Feb that this might be my only RCI match. So, would you take it (and why) or not? We would snorkel, dive, fish and go to Key West for a day. This might be a "location wins over lux" RCI trade, but we don't want a dive either.
We are going on a 7 day cruise the prior week. So we could either do this as a 2nd week, or take a different 10 day cruise instead (which was our plan until the match popped up).
thanks, Elaine

If you don't think it will meet your expectations then I would take a pass You are correct in that it "could" be your only RCI match at this point for that time period (but you still do have eight months to try and find something else). If you do match then it sounds like you may be much happier.

The question really is do you want to take it and kick yourself for doing so, or not take it, and kick yourself for not finding a nice alternative.........

I have been there once, seven years ago. My other half will never go back due to location. It is right when you enter the keys. It will be a couple of hour ride to Key West. I would personally choose the cruise.
