Just an FYI .... we used StarOptions to book at Princeville last April (shoulder season). I made the reservation at midnight exactly 8 months out and we were assigned a villa on the hammerhead end of building 3, I believe, with a lovely view off the cliff and of the ocean. The only negative was it was a walk from the elevator and there was a lady near us who loved to practice her ukulele at all hours of the day and night out on her lanai. She wasn't very good, either.

How annoying! The resort has quiet hours - did you report her?

No, we didn't report her. After a while I just tuned her out, just like we tuned out the screaming kids in one villa that we had to walk by all the time.
