Wow, thank you all for helping my wife and I navigate this world. . Our goal is one week a year, somewhere tropical (preferably Cancun because flights are so reasonable from our airport)...
What does a 'win' in timeshare land looks like? (deal wise) If we were to be patient and only pull the trigger when its a true 'great deal' that would be our goal! What pricing would be amazing and where would you buy?
I feel I've been doing so much research on 'the bad' that I'm wondering what a win looks like?
----
More context... I consider myself rather shrewd when it comes to negotiation. I'm in no hurry, & I want a great deal. I have run multiple businesses and I get along with car salesman because I speak their language, til they get sick of me at the end (be it good or bad). --- I actually wanted to go to the timeshare meeting because I wanted to see how "hard sale" it was... and it really was haha! We did not buy. Wanted to do way more research.
My wife and I are (currently atleast) pretty simple middle-class people. Meaning we don't need the sun and moon. Maybe we could upgrade in a few years if we have alot more money or get more complicated .
The Grand Bliss RM took our breath away. We love the nice pool and beach. Being from the north, it's such a change that a week there beyond satisfied us both.
Here is our criteria -
Clean room, nice pool, considerate people (not really looking for a party, we don't even drink), NOT all inclusive if possible, good restaurants, tropical feel.
Maybe try to be recent with examples or atleast relate it to the current market. I see some people wanting to get rid of theirs at almost no money... but that leads to the question...
Sounds like we should try a few resorts out before pulling the trigger on anything. This group is SO AWESOME. Thank you all for your wise advice on this.
