Last week, at Grande Ocean, Hilton Head, we had 2 side by side villas for us and the kids + grandkids.

Both in Starfish building, Oceanfront

Here are a couple shots from 8935 (3rd floor, North corner of Starfish, Queen and sofa sleeper in 2nd BR)

This one is a doozy. Newport Coast Villas building 37. Count me as unimpressed :rolleyes:
After the fog clears, you should have a nice view of the 4000, 4100 and 4200 buildings. :confused:

The view is otherwise not that bad, at least what we saw of it when the skies were clear.

Hopefully when the sun clears it will still be a beautiful view. Not straight on ocean view with nothing between you and the ocean(few are at NCV…..maybe just the 4000, 4100 and 4200, and even those have the golf course in front). But the architecture and landscaping is gorgeous there, and I do think you will be able to see some ocean when the fog lifts. And the view you will have is better than most other timeshare resorts…People pay HUGE money for homes there in OC. 😊 Please post a picture When the sun comes out.
Plus you are really close to the main building where there are beautiful views…and if you go to that firepit below which you can see, there are gorgeous views.

I hope this happens. The fog seems to be getting thicker as the morning goes on. I talked to an employee at Laguna Cliffs Marriott yesterday and they said that the fog seems to be back this week because they had warmer than usual weather last week and now the temps are back down.

Here is the "unobstructed" view from when we checked in;

Building 4400 Room 12 (4412)
First floor, but a nice view of some ocean (and a couple of Birds of Paradise blooms). I like how the hillside "hides" the other units.
Not too much walking traffic - we were not in the room all that much aside for breakfast and dinner.

Enjoying fall weather at Mountainside in Park City. We received a 6th floor room with a view of the pool.
Two hot tubs are currently being renovated but there are several others available. Pool is nice and heated.
