There are counties/cities that charge additional TOT taxes (ARDA's been fighting this for years)
in addition to the property taxes paid by timeshare owners. There are a few resorts in our system that I have to pay a tax on when I stay there (actually when the reservation is made)...despite the fact that we are owners. The amount varies...and it's not pleasant...but I understand that it's beyond my control and have my fingers crossed that someday ARDA may make a dent in the situation.
So...while I was surprised at the jump in last call fees...the taxes themselves arent surprising to me....just that they're being
universally applied to all resorts...since many areas dont charge a TOT.
