As title says -- at HGVC Flamingo, what's the difference between a 1 Bedroom LP and 1 Bedroom EP? There are separate entries for each in Revolution.

Thanks,
Bob
 
I wish they offered a better description on the website, but I had a similar question yesterday for Parc Soleil regarding the two types of 2 bedroom penthouses. The point difference prompted me to call the resort & ask. They said they have a "lower floor" (3rd floor) type and an upper floor penthouse catagory. Seems odd to even build a penthouse on the third floor. Seriously, who does that? By their very nature they should be the top floors. Maybe they added them later.
 
I'm pretty sure all rooms are lockouts at Flamingo.

No, Flamingo has 1BR units that are not part of the 2BR lockout. I've been in one before. I also thought that it referred to lockout vs non-lockout. The question is, which one is which?

Thanks,
Bob
 
For what it's worth, at HHV Lagoon Tower, I've been told that a one bedroom "LP" is a locked off one bedroom (locked off from the studio side), while a one bedroom "BP" is a dedicated (non-lock off) one bedroom. Don't know if similar codes are used at Flamingo.

Blues, why don't you call customer service and find out?
 
Pure speculation, but maybe one has a direct entry without sharing the little entry foyer that the 2Bdr units have??

The little entry foyer is a Lock-Off as mentioned above. The direct entry would be a dedicated 2BR vs a Lock-Off.

I called HGVC customer service. They said
EP is a dedicated 1 bedroom with direct entry from the hotel hallway into the room.
LP is a locked off 1 bedroom with a shared foyer entry that opens into the 1bed.

Sorry, I meant dedicated 1BR in this case.
