We like the southwest gulf area best if staying in timeshares (In the Pan Handle area we love the Santa Rosa Beach area, Cape San Blas, St George, .........but these areas either don't have time shares or we prefer not to use them). In the S. Gulf area we love Captiva.....they are Hilton resorts. I'd like to try staying on Siesta Key (not sure of the resorts except for the Hyatt which looks REALLY nice). The Hyatt Coconut Plantation looks lovely....but it's not on the water but still I'd like to check it out! Marco Island has a couple nice resorts right on the beach....we prefer the quiet of Captiva but these are all REALLY nice resorts and I'd love to stay some time if I got the opportunity!
