II allows you to specify whether or not you want a kitchen in its ongoing search. Will that match any kitchen (LK), or only a full kitchen (K)?

Secondarily, is there a way to tell in the resort directory which unit sizes have which sort of kitchen options? It is not obvious to me that you can...
 
I have never gotten LK when I entered kitchen. It's always been a full kitchen. I don't get MMO when I put that in, so I have to leave it out to get MMO.
 
There are some resorts with an A&B villa units.
The A unit will have a full kitchen.
The B unit could have only a microwave, a small refrigerator, a toaster , a blended
Everything but a full size oven.IMO.

II matches a full kitchen.

As Pedro47 stated above, some resorts have villas that split into 2 one bedrooms (one having a full kitchen and the other with a kitchenette). Years ago, when we used to get bulk deposits at Harborside, I would use the full kitchen option on II’s Request first to match the larger one bedroom premium units with a full kitchen instead of the smaller one bedrooms with a kitchenette.

You can use II‘s Advance Search page to locate resorts with a full kitchen.
Select “Cooking Facilities (in Units)” under Amenities - https://www.intervalworld.com/web/cs?a=1505

As RickandCindy23 stated above this will eliminate Marriott's Maui Ocean Club. See example of Hawaii Marriott resorts included in the screen capture below.
