The Grand Luxxe Master Suite features a full gourmet kitchen and a
spacious balcony that has a plunge pool and is large enough (2,374 sf) to
comfortably accommodate 8 people.
The Grand Luxxe has received the highest award AAA gives: The AAA Five
Diamond Award. Amenities with this suite include 16 free rounds of golf
with range and carts, two 50-minute massages, Wi-Fi throughout the entire
resort, and access to tennis, the gym and the spas plus 24 hour concierge
and butler service. There is also a free shuttle to or from the airport.
There are daily planned activities, if that is your interest, plus many
restaurant and bar options on site. A Cirque du Soleil Theater with a
dining and dancing bar that extends the fun well into the night id on
site. An adjacent water park for guests (fee extra) is also available. A
children play area with the potential for day care is yet another amenity
that allows guests to make the most of their stay.
The picture posted with the listing shows a floor plan of a Grand Luxxe
Master Suite. The rental can be divided into three options. The Grand
Luxxe Master Suite is everything pictured which will sleep up to 6 adults
and 2 children ages 5 through 11. Children ages less than 5 years old do
not count toward the total. The Grand Luxxe Suite (available at a lower
price) is the left side of the picture which will sleep up to 4 adults
and 2 children with children less than 5 not counting toward the total.
The Grand Luxxe Master Room (available at the lowest price) is the right
side of the picture which will sleep up to 2 adults and 2 children, and,
again, children less than 5 not counting toward the total.
Other options (the Grand Bliss, Grand Mayan, Mayan Palace and Sea Garden)
are available at lower price points.
The reservation process is complicated and popular times can go VERY
quickly so please provide the specifics of your interest when contacting
me about availability. That is: 1) Which location? 2) The number of
people in your group aged 12 years old or older, the number aged 5 to 11
years and the number aged 4 years or younger. 3) The date or dates that
you prefer and perhaps back-up dates that would work for you if
availability is limited. 4) The number and type (kitchenette vs
hotel-style vs both) of rooms.

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.
