Grand Vista 3 bedroom locations

S

Steamboat Bill

I am going to Marriott Grand Vista in a 3 bedroom in 2 weeks.

Can anyone recommend a specific building or location that is better than another.

Are there any differences between the 3 bedroom locations?

I stayed here 3 years ago and it was still in pretty good condition.

I'd ask for 83 - near marketplace and check in, but not right in the middle of the bustle

or 78, 79, 84 or 85 on the other side of the lake with the new pool and Copo Loca Bar/Grill

77 is brand new but pretty far from everything (except for the tennis courts).

I don't remember the building # but it was the one closest to the tennis courts. When you pull in it is the 1st building on the left. We had a 3 bedroom that was new and was not a lock off. We had the master and then the other 2 bedrooms each had 2 beds in them. It overlooked the lake and one of the tees but I don't know which hole.

I think the building you are referring to is on the right after you pull through the gate?

The nearest biuilding to the tennis courts and basketball courts is 77. Building 77 is across the street from the tennis courts and basketball course. Building 77 is near the second gated entrance (access with your villa key) located in the West Village; building 77 is call Costa Brava.
The nearest building to Welcome gate I believe is building 95.
