Timeshares seem like bad value to me. You don't actually own the place in that you can't decorate it how you want, can't go whenever you want, can't leave stuff there, etc. Plus, for the same amount of money (yearly/monthly fees, interest on a mortgage, plus the actual cost to buy it) I don't think you're really saving anything versus just renting a cabin or hotel room for a week or two a year where ever you want. They seem like a real pain to sell, too, and you have to factor in realtor fees in there also. And Sylvanfan mentioned all inclusives - those are way better value than any timeshare IMO.
