X 2. Best way to rent at RP is to rent from a TS owner. Cheaper, for sure. The only additions should be the $50 per week timeshare tax. This compares very favorably to the add-ons on hotel reservations, their 20% tax (which is really 5% tax and 15% service charge), and their bogus $10 per day 'resort fee'.

Thanks Carol. Is there any one particular website to find rents from owners that you have used.?

Hi. The previous poster posted the link to RP owner's site..
http://www.sintmaartenrentalweeks.com/FLAMINGO-ROYALPALM.htmlI found this a few weeks ago. Never used it. Have no idea if there are extra costs involved. Probably not better than renting direct from a TS owner. Just putting it here for information and an idea of costs.
