Timeshare warning

Beware of purchasing a timeshare at Marina de Oro, which is affiliated with Club Golden Shores and Hotel Playa de Oro. Their management has been deliberately overchanging for maintenance fees, which has resulted in over 80 owners joining to hire a law firm to recover excess charges.

Can you tell us more? I am a member of club golden shores, but at the crown paradise cancun. Our m.f. has gone up every year but not more than 10%. and they are low compared to other resorts in cancun. I will be in cancun in the beginning of june, my be i can find something out.

Marina de Oro maintenance fee increases were to be pegged to US Cost of Living for Large Cities. This practice held for a number of years until current Mexican management decided to raise maintenance fees 10% across the board. At this rate maintenance fees will double in a little over 7 years. This matter is now in the hands of lawyers and will eventually make its way to officials in California where Golden Shores has their office.
