Limited exchange activity
Limited exchange activity. Interval flags this resort as one where few weeks are deposited, so an exchange into it is hard to obtain and may not be available at all — regardless of how well it rates below.
About
An island escape that combines the best of Florida's past with all the comforts of today. Each Victorian cottage faces the Gulf of Mexico and has a large, lattice-trimmed porch. A typical cottage is decorated with wicker and knotty pine furniture and features such interior detail as etched glass windows and ornamental woodwork. The resort has a swimming pool, a spa, deck tennis courts, and a pond
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.
