DSV-I from Building R or Q

Looking at the Resort Map, I believe that it was from Building R but we also stayed in Building Q as our first choice wasn't available. I didn't keep track of the condo numbers in 2006.

We love facing the San Jacinto mountain range as you may see the snowcapped mountains during the winter months. An awesome view while being in the desert and it is warm during the day. :)

It is a little walk to the Clubhouse and main pool but there is a shuttle too every half hour. It used to stop at 7 PM but that may have changed.

It may be side on to see the ocean, but I for one would be extremely impressed to receive that as a Mountain/Garden view.

Stayed at Kauai Lagoons in June of 2014 in a 2nd floor 2br near the pool. Here are the views from there as well as from the gym. Best. View. Ever. from a gym that I've experienced.

Here are ocean views on the fourth and sixth floor in the Lahaina tower (MM1) that are considered garden/mountain views but you can see the ocean from the balconies clearly. I don't know if you can see this view in front of the living room window too?

Maybe, someone can confirm that who has stayed in one of these condos on the side of this tower? The views here are from further back than the last balcony so more forward would have a closer ocean view yet. :)

The ocean view condos on this side of the building start on the seventh floor in the first stack closest to the oceanfront corner. Here is a link of all the view categories at the MMO and MM1 and you can download it for your records but it may have been replaced with a newer one. Mine is from a long time ago.

Sixth floor from the parking structure.

Fourth floor.

Second floor is a garden view.

Please, make a sticky of this thread because I had to go all the way back to July 1 to find it again. I searched too and then I lost my reply. :eek:

A picture is worth a thousand words and that is so true. :D We love this resort and the beach plus in walking distance on the beach path to several restaurants too!

I posted this in another thread on Barony Beach Club, but I thought it would be good to post it in this compilation thread as well. I hope that is OK within TUG posting rules that discourage duplicate posts, but I think it fits in both places.

Marriott's Barony Beach Club, Hilton Head Island, Oceanfront, Sea Oat building, 2nd floor (really three floors up due to parking garage on ground level.)
