Newport Coast Villas, 4000 building, first floor. Beautiful weather here in early October. Still have not spotted a [service] dog yet. Pretty awesome view considering it was through Interval using my little DSV-I Studio trader.

Our Bali Nusa Dua Terrace villa view.
I will call it upstairs as there are only 2 floors (this is on UK 1st, US 2nd)

The splash pool is a nice upscale touch.
Yes, the splash pool is a very nice feature here in all units.
It is not heated though and mostly they are facing out of direct sunlight.
That is not really a problem now, as it has been consistently hot and sunny ~30°C every day.
At other times, it could feel quite cold.
The resort is planning an expansion phase and the new units are expected to have heaters for the splash pools, which would be good.

Grand Ocean Unit 8715 Sand Dollar Bldg. Not shown in image but it had an oversized corner porch. Would prefer higher floor but loved the oversized and open feel of porch.

Quick stay at Lakeshore Reserve before a cruise. 5th floor, Messina building. First visit and I'm impressed.

Marriott Maui Ocean Club, Napili tower, Floor 4...someone strategically placed a healthy palm tree in the middle of our view out to Lanai, but we're loving the resort and ocean views from this building.
