Hello:

This past April my family of 4 stayed at GSLE in a 1 bedroom unit (called a Master Suite), with the wife and I getting a king bed and the kids sleeping on a trundle bed in the other room. We also had two friends come down and they stayed in a "Grand Studio" unit w/ King bed. Both units were rented separately via Redweek as I figured that they were totally different units, but when we checked in, the front desk staff told us the Master Suite and Grand Studio are connected via a lock-off door, so they put us in adjoining rooms, and everything worked great.

We had such a nice time that we are looking to go back again in April 2017, but now that we know that the units connect, I went on Redweek to see if I can find a 2 bedroom suite combination of Master Suite + Grand Studio, but all the 2 bedroom units I see are called "Presidential Suites" and only have 1 king bed w/ rest of beds being queens.

Is it possible to rent both room types as a unit (like what the Royal Resorts would call a Villa) - and therefore save some $s, or do both units always have to be booked separately?

Thanks!

The two bedroom three bath presidential villa locks off into a one bedroom two bath and a studio with kitchen and one bath. Yes, if you rent a two bedroom three bath presidential villa, you would get both sides.

The units that do not lock off are called "penthouses" and not presidential units.

does anyone know if all 2 bdr penthouses (sleep 8) are only on the 9th and the 10th floor? What building at Grand Solmar at Land's end should I request? We are going soon.

do you know if the penthouses are on any floor/ building or only situated at the top floors of the central buildings?

The four-bedroom penthouses (there are only 3) are for sure the entire rooftops of three specific buildings. The two and three bedroom penthouse as far as I know are located into a few of the ocean front buildings closest to the water. They could however be on lower or higher floors.
