Better than some ocean views I have gotten. Can see the ocean while sitting on the dining room table or couch.

Booked with points 2 days ago for one night. Naia 31512 two bedroom dedicated mountain view

I don't see any mountains. Another example of Marriott exaggeration.

Marmite - Hope all is well with you! How did you snag a 10th floor villa at MOC-Napili?!! Awesome!
Instant trade in Interval close to the date. I had a Nanea booked, and used E Plus. I was surprised to get Napili, top floor too. It doesn’t get too much better than that! There are still gems in Interval, you never know what may come up.

I'll be staying there in February and March for the first time and can't wait!

There's already snow? I'm going to Vail in a few days (staying in Streamside Douglas) and hoping there's enough snow to hit a few runs.

We were there for a week (got back yesterday) and it snowed half the days we were there. With that being said, down near the base areas it was still much more artificial than natural snow. We did drive up to Vail one of the days, they had a lot less snow than Breck. I'm sure it will even out before too long though.

Crystal Shores Pool View (High Floor). We usually try to stay Gulf Front view, but this was also very nice and "gulf front" in its own way.

Biggest downside was the (much) longer hike to the grill area.
