Probability is that you will be placed in Naia building. There are more OV PH's in that building than any of the others. I think there are 8 (or 9) in Naia, 5 in Kona and 4 in Moana.

We will be there in March in a 2BR OV PH and will be requesting 1) Naia building 2) Kona, and 3) Moana. However, we are a Wednesday check-in, and I think that will impact our ability to get a better room (especially since we are there on points, and not an owner).

Please let me know where they put you (and please send a pic!)

Best,

Greg

I would for sure request Naia as the first choice. It also has a better parking facility than the other towers.
