Floating weeks: High SeasonNext use: 2024Maintenance fees 2024: $1,137.79Per the owner: Things I love about the Riviera Beach and Spa Resort:* The resort itself! The facilities have been completely upgraded and modernized. The in-room, in-resort amenities (including pool, fitness center, games room, bicycles, and washer/dryer), and friendly resort service make you feel at home from the day you arrive until the day you (though you won't want to!) leave. * The perfect climate! The temperatures are just right literally any time of year. Warm days followed by cool nights and incredible sunsets, with low humidity and balmy ocean breezes. * The three incredible beach towns! Dana Point is a short walk away, while San Clemente (to the south) and Laguna Beach (to the north) are quick drives along the scenic Pacific Coast Highway (PCH to the locals). From world-class art to world-famous Mexican restaurants to out-of-this-world whale watching boat excursions, the things to do and see are almost limitless and right at your fingertips. * The Southern California access! The resort is exactly between Los Angeles and San Diego. Two of America's great cities are just an hour away (I know, I know...depending on traffic...), along with everything to see and do along the way. From Disneyland to Legoland, from South Coast Plaza to the Getty Museum, from Surf City to Big Bear, the region's offerings are all there for your and your family's enjoyment.*Closing costs and transfer fees are to be paid by the buyer**Buyer to pay maintenance fees for first year of usage*

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.
