What the units actually give you

Interval's amenity list only says "Cooking Facilities (In Units)" and "Laundry Facilities", which leaves the two most practical questions open. The answers below are read from the wording of the source shown, quoted so you can judge it yourself.

Grocery

1.3 km — short drive
Bailey's General Store

Pharmacy

Beach

Travel Demand Index — Florida, Tampa Bay, 2026

Interval's index of relative demand for this market, week by week. 100 is the market average; above it demand exceeds supply, below it availability is easier and your exchange goes further. Each row shows the real check-in dates for that timeshare week.

High is the average daily maximum for that week and wet days are how many of the seven see 1 mm or more, averaged over 2023-2025. Demand says when a week is hard to get; this says whether you would want it. Weather from Open-Meteo, CC BY 4.0.

Week numbers follow Interval's calendar: week 1 starts on the first Friday of the year, and the Saturday and Sunday after it belong to the same week. A 52-week year still has a week 53 on the demand chart — its check-in dates fall in January of the following year. Full week calendar →
