We purchased a timeshare at Crystal Shores, Marriott timeshare in Marco Island, Fl. pre-construction several years ago. At the time it seemed a fair investment but now it's just a burden and we're looking to sell it but we will never recoup what we paid. For the first few years we did the week exchange and went to other Marriott timeshare resorts and it felt great but it was an exchange of week for week. They have now changed everything to points so some places need more points that our week's worth. Again, back then we didn't know about RedWeek and how you could just rent from someone who own's a place. Trying to rent our place takes time and expertise and the maintenance fees just keep going up. We would not recommend purchasing, rent instead.
