Per the owner:
The Hyatt Beach house in Key West is a great vacation. My wife and I usually rent bikes for the week and avoid the rental car. You can bike downtown on the very safe bike paths. All of the best restaurants have a bike rack out front to lock them up. I have great memories of riding back after an evening in Key West in the warm air in January. The resort is excellent, the apartment spacious, the screened porch is really nice.
The Hyatt system is really pretty easy to use. We have owned this timeshare since 2008 and have traded our 2,200 points to most of the warm weather locations they offer. We have been to the Maui, Hawaii property multiple times (it is next to the Hyatt Regency Kaanapali and you have access to all their pools and restaurants), Sedona Arizona, Lake Tahoe (two locations), Carmel, California. The 2,200 points is a big deal, it is usually the minimum point value to trade to the resorts we have been to. If you have less annual points for your week it will be more difficult to enjoy these other Hyatt Vacation Club resorts. We found all of the resorts to be first class with great staff. Super vacations.

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.
