Would appreciate some room/building selection guidance for an upcoming trip in late January.
We've been before, I just don't recall the building locations/preferences.
Thanks

Depends upon what you are looking for. We generally like to request the building next to the quiet pool - but that is the only building without lock off units. We have never been successful at getting the main pool. However, there is a very nice courtyard in the buildings between the quiet pool and the main pool that we like to stay off of. It has two fire pits, shuffle board, bocce ball, a gazebo area, etc.
If you let me know what you like, I can give better advice on what to request. However, I will say that requests are tough at this property as many owners stay for weeks at a time - at least that is what the desk told me.
