WOW! Six weeks at the Red Coconut would cost us $5124.00!!! :E.:E....Dennis
The most expensive is is row 1 at $754.80 per week, times 6 weeks = $4,528.80.
Your math might not quite accurate, but it is still a LOT of money, even if it is right on the beach. At a little over $100.00 per day I would guess you could stay at Ft. Wilderness for less than that.
I do know from experience and often driving by it up to three times per day, it is always full! I guess a lot of folks want to camp right on the beach and are willing to pay the price.
They have been there 30 years or more.
You have to ADD in the 11% add on tax, the $3.33/day charge for each dog, and the $11.10/day for each person over two.....for us, $5124.00 for the 6 weeks.....Dennis
You are right about the darn taxes, forgot that part. Taxes we are not going to escape.
You may or may not have to pay for extra people or a dog depending on if they are with you.
No matter what it is a lot of money!
From a personal point of view, we grew up there and my wife can't see the attraction. I try to explain to her that people that don't live near a beach like to visit there, just as we like to visit mountains.
All of South Florida is expensive. I find it ironic that I lived there my entire adult life, and now that I am retired I can't afford to visit for more than two weeks a year!
But I am NOT complaining. The full time lifestyle is close as to heaven for us.
