Hello, I have a few questions. We purchased a time share week thu a friend , we picked Costa Linda. Here are my questions:

1. We do not know what condo we will be getting. My Interval International
certificate shows atleast a 2 br, 2 bath . How can I find out what my
room number will be. Do I have a chance of getting a 3 bedroom ? :eek:)
We traded a 3 bedroom.

2. Is the new restaurant onsite finished?

3. Are all the condo's completed with remodeling?

4. How is the in room wifi, I know I have to purchase a Setarnet card.

5. Any pictures of the 2 br/bath deck/ patio? How big are they? Will we
have our own BBQ grill ?

Thank you so much for your help.

You should have been told, if you purchased from a friend, what they received. You can see pictures of the units on the Costa Linda website page. www.costalinda-aruba.com. No, the restaurant is not finished yet but they are serving b-fast, lunch and dinner at the other restaurant. Hopefully new bar will be open soon. Not all the units have been renovated but even without renovation are in good shape.

Thank you for the information. I called Costa Linda and they said they did not know which condo I will recieve until a week before I arrive. I guess that is when Interval gives them a list of what they need. Who knows. I'm sure it will be a wonderfull place to stay.

Do owners or previous visitors to CLBR have any info on the fitness center? Recent photos to share? Was it also renovated and what equipment, and its condition, does it have?
Did your workouts there, not too crowded, etc., while visiting?

I saw some photos (oyster) from a few years ago and it seems like a fairly narrow room with treadmills, a couple of other cardio, some free weights....
thx. for any info.

It is pretty narrow and has treadmills, weights, a bike and I think elliptical. I lived there for 7 months and at no time was it very crowded. Early a.m. you would see the runners on the treadmills, etc. They have pool aerobics and I have friends who went to the gym during that time. I always walked the pool for an hour in the early a.m. (around outer edges) and did the pool aerobics.
