Although there is no movement with the sale of the Divi Tiara Resort on Cayman Brac, the corporation says the re–construction of timeshare units there is to be completed in a matter of months.
But one timeshare owner finds it difficult to believe that the construction will soon be in motion, as the building in question was gutted two years ago and has stood open since then.
"We have been told, over two years, that the construction ‘was about to start’," said timeshare owner Edward Haladay of Baltimore, Maryland. "Today the second building stands stripped to its bones, wind and water swept – empty. We’ll believe Divi when we see it completed and occupiable".
Six of the total 12 timeshare units have been renovated. Divi Resorts Vice President Sales and Marketing Mark Steward, said construction for the remaining six is to be finished within several months.

Owners ready to sue Legends Resort
When Ray Foley spent $12,200 on a timeshare at Legends Resort five years ago, he was told the place would be "a palace in a few years."
Today, he said, the ceilings of the McAfee hotel and country club are covered with mold, the doors sprayed with graffiti. Other timeshare owners voiced similar complaints about sinks falling off the walls, cars seemingly abandoned in the parking lot, and nails protruding from walls and floorboards.
Foley and about 1,700 other timeshare owners are especially upset that their ability to trade their week for another resort has been suspended.
"We were lied to," Foley said. "I don't think they had any interest in the first place. I think it's been a big scam from the beginning."
Foley and about 35 fellow timeshare owners are pursuing a class action lawsuit against the former Playboy Club, which they said has fallen further and further into disrepair over the years.

Paris Vacation Rental for Short Term
If you are planning to have vacation in Paris, think of rental apartments in Paris instead of costly lodging in Hotels. Find every thing that is available in Hotel & feel at home during the vacation.
The dramatic increase of French hotel prices over the past few years, especially in Paris, have led many tourists to shorten their holiday or simply pick other European destinations to spend their vacation.
However, some wise travellers have already pitched on a far more money-saving accommodation system which, it appears, may well become as popular as the traditional hotel business in the years to come.
Indeed, weekly apartment rental has become for many the best way to experience the city of lights without putting further strain on their holiday budget.
