We fell in love with the Divi Little Bay Resort, primarily because of the
location and the incredible views from our unit. But the fact that we had
a full kitchen make this a no-brainer. It was so much fun venturing out
and grocery shopping where all the locals go … trying local specialties
(The gouda cheese! The Dutch sweets and chocolates!) and having the
flexibility to cook at ‘home’, eat at the resort restaurants, or to go
into town or across the island where hundreds of world-class restaurants
were waiting to tickle our tastebuds. The next big selling point was the
wonderful staff who made us feel so welcome every day, with every smile.
They know how to make each person comfortable, entertained, and pampered.
Divi Little Bay is one very special place. For anyone wanting to ‘get
away form it all’ while still having all the comforts of home, Divi is
for you.

More information on our formula...
Hotels usually sleep 2 adults per room, whereas the average timeshare units offer multiple private bedrooms, sleeper sofas and sometimes even bunk beds - adding value not calculated here. Timeshare properties are condo style units that contain all of the comforts of home... and then some!
Hotel total cost includes a 10% hotel tax whereas the average U.S. hotel tax is currently around 13.4%.
Timeshare total cost includes an increase in maintenance dues each year of 3%, as well as an estimated $1,000 in closing and transfer costs. These are estimated and will vary by state, county and resort.
Total savings does not take into consideration the added benefit of a timeshare unit having a spacious living room, washer and dryer, dining room and full kitchen, all of which add value and potential savings when you have the option to do your own laundry and enjoy a home cooked meal instead of dining out.
