I received this unit from another TUGer and as luck would have it, I found another ownership at the resort that better meets my families needs.

So I am listing this as a freebie with new owner paying the transfer fee of approximately $450


$1.00 plus closing and it's yours!
Studio sleep 4 Virgin Grand or Hillside Villa at the Westin St John .
Mandatory Resort so comes with 44,000 StarOptions
Fixed week 34 with Friday check in unit 3414, first floor , steps from pool, parking right outside your door. Full kitchen, washer dryer, Kings size bed and sleeper sofa, balcony overlooking Cruz Bay.
First use 8/19/2016
Maint. Fee $1,500

Unit has a Home Resort Preference for a Hillside Studio 12-10 months before check in for weeks 21-42.
Converts to 44,000 StarOptions that can be used to reserve a studio unit weeks 34-50 in the Coral Vista Section of the resort or any other Starwood Resort

People have been asking for pictures.

This is the floor plan of the unit. It is a Virgin Grand or Hillside unit.
It is not a Coral Vista Studio



This is a picture of the living/dinning/kitchen area and balcony. And my view really goes look like this!



The view at night and after a rain storm

These studios are gorgeous. We loved seeing them on the tour. And spectacular views up there. Would be all over this if we didn't have kids!

You could use it as an "in-law suite" :cool:

So is this unit not good for a family? I have an 11 yr old and a 4 yr old. Sofa bed is ok I think but maybe I am wrong.

It won't be long until the kids want separate beds. I'd say too small.

Resort will provide a rollaway bed if needed

Edit -Denise is now saying no, I will double check and post tomorrow. Looks like it might be a blow up mattress if needed in the future.

That's good to know - at their other SW resorts, they don't permit rollaways in the studios.

This is what the "special conditions" link on the WSJ confirmations say:

Rollaway beds are allowed in select villas and limited to 1 per villa. We are unable to accommodate rollaway beds, due to space limitations, in the studio, one-bedroom, Coral Vista Villas two-bedroom villas and second floor villas in the Virgin Grand phase.

Contract Pending

I have a TUGer who has committed to taking this ownership.....

I will update the title once contract is signed and closing is under way.

Thanks :hi:

And now I have a back up buyer as well
