Why do some of the Grande Ocean 2BR units say they have 2 queen beds and others a twin and a sofa sleeper? Are there different 2BR units at Grande Ocean? Are the condos different sizes?

As they refurbish the units they are changing the second B/R from a queen and a sofa bed to two queens. They should be about finished with all units by now.

Not all of the refurbished units will have two queens. The end units have an extra window that makes it impractical to arrange furniture with two queens in the 2nd BR. Those will continue to have a queen (not a twin) and a sofa sleeper.

If it makes a difference to you, be sure to specify your preference when reserving or exchanging into GO. However, avoid making numerous requests (e.g., 2 Qs in 2nd BR, and a high floor and the Dolphin building). Make the request that is most important to you.

Dave, a couple of years ago they were in the process of converting all of the second BR to 2 queens. I know the configuration of many of the units prevented this, mostly the corner units due to the window. But are you saying they are not converting the recently redone units to the 2 queen beds when the dimensions allow, if so, this is different than the info I have been given.

Dean -

I apologize if my first paragraph wasn't clear.

I intended to convey that two queens are not being put in certain corner units that have the extra window, but otherwise, the refurbishments include two queens, as posted above.

OK, that was my understanding. You scared me for a minute.
