We’re heading to Ko’Olina at the end of this month. I just received the email for my requests. What building should I request since we have a 3 bedroom?
 
Your choice would be Naia or Moana then.

I don’t recall if that unit code is ocean view or island view. Assuming it’s ocean view, if you want to be closer to the water ask for Naia. If you prefer a view over the interior of the resort and a distant view of the water ask for Moana.

Note that traders via II are not high on the priority list, so you may likely be assigned a lower level floor. Probably floors 1 to 6. Either way, it’s a beautiful resort. Enjoy!
 
I don't think one building is much better than the others.

We recently returned from Ko Olina, also had a 3 BR on exchange, still cannot believe how nice the resort is and how nice our room was. We did not make any specific request for a room and were put in the Naia building on the 5th floor. That is within floors 1-6 and we were still blown away, I've attached a photo of our view. As far as I understand all the 3 BR's in the Naia have the same view, just higher or lower depending on the floor.

That was our first time, so can't say what Moana is like, but everything is so nice, I don't think you can go wrong.

Make sure you walk over to Secret Beach and Paradise Cove, monk seals swimming ashore and laying on the beach, lots of sea turtles in the cove, it was incredible.

Thanks for the unit codes. This is what I see; “ZZAO....Ko'Olina Beach Club.........Ocean View.........3BR unit that locks off in to 2BR and studio.” I’m hoping that this will be honored. We were there last year May in a two bedroom that faced the mountains and garage. My first stay in 2019 was a penthouse corner unit that was absolutely amazing.

Thanks so much for your suggestions.
 
We had a three-bedroom in Sept for our 1st trip to Ko'Olina, we ended up in Moana and enjoyed the view.
