Caribbean Homes or condominuims

[Joel Brown]

Has anyone invested in condos (or houses) in the caribbean? I'm leaning towards condos as the HOA usually covers upkeep and lawn/pool/tennis etc. Some even cover water which can be expensive. In past post no one has responded but I'm sure that some on here are investing in vacation markets in tropical areas.

I'm thinking about the virgin islands (British and US).  Someplace I can furnish and stay there 3 to 4 times a year when the weather sucks in Idaho.  I could block it off a month before when it is not rented and enjoy the investment.  I'm certain there are places that would cash flow and still be able to use a lot through out the year. Plus your trips would be a writeoff when legitimate maintenance and management issue need your attention!.

Any thoughts
