https://www.google.com/search?q=rv+beach...FplZDlrnxGXQFM:This wont be upscale enough for some but the chalets were already rustic...they grew on us They could tow these to a shelter prior to storm. Have a permanent deck with outdoor shower and grill. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/dine.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/dine.gif" alt="" />

The "out of the box thinking" will need to address these issues and more: 1) the French building codes may not allow habitable portions of structures below the height of possible storm surge. This might prevent rehabbing the concrete chalets; 2) the title to the properties are still impaired by the 1860s Beauperthuy estate mess (now is the time for the French government to end this stupid case with legislation), 3) there are a number of members of the condo association who are not covered by any insurance and will probably not agree to any plan to restore the resort; 4) making the resort financially sound will require addressing: a) the dichotomy between owners that want to make money or at least break even, while using their unit as a vacation properties, and owners that want to use them as second homes, and b) the current system which divides the money equally regardless of whether your unit has been modernized, well decorated and amply furnished, or you have taken the path of decorating the walls with old placemats(sorry Al) from out of business restaurants; and 5) the resort had its own water plant, power plant, and sewer plant, all designed by one of the early owners, Bill Schertzer, at a time public facilities were not remotely possible. If those facilities have been destroyed, the cost to connect to public power, sewer and water may be crippling.
