Been going to SXM every year for 35 years(except pandemic). We, like many bought timeshares so our kids could go during Christmas vacation days from school. Later when school was not part of the formula we kept timeshares for a family reunion every year. When TS maintenance and travel costs got crazy (IMO), we decided to sell timeshares and rent. Going at less costly times can save real $. We skipped pandemic timeframe and plan on going back in November 2022.
