We can’t always get what we ask for and this trip is one of those times. Probably the worst view/privacy of any balcony in the whole place and I still love it! And on an even brighter side I make good use of the grill and I’m close as can be to them and to the stairs to the beach, no elevators required. Tortola Bldg. Room 302. They have installed some nice roll up shades that offer a modicum of privacy.

Marriott's Waiohai Beach Club, Island View, Hale 3, Third Floor. Just checked in today after three days at HGVC in Waikiki. First time at Waiohai. DC Points booking.
Here is my recent stay at Newport Coast from my balcony. Fantastic resort, great room, beautiful grounds esp. at night. Only one nice day though, weather has been terrible in CA this year. This balcony really had about a 250 degree view without cheating and hanging over. You can just barely see an island in the distance, Catalina I think.

Spectacular view, and yes, that's Catalina Island. Hate your weather was bad, as that's an amazing area,
and NCVs provide some very memorable vistas. It ranks very highly in our timeshare travels....definitely in the top 5.
What's not to love?

What a beautiful view you had at least one day. Sorry that the weather wasn't that good the rest of the week for you but the locals are happy that we finally got rain to fill our reservoirs.
It is Catalina Island and, sometimes, you can see San Clemente Island too but it is very flat so you need to be higher up to see it easily but we have seen it right from the beach too if it is a crystal clear day.

Room 4536, therefore, building 4500. When I checked in, the desk clerk said oooh, this is a great room. I thought it was merely something they always say perhaps. No, they were right. There is one more floor, but not over this room making it sort of unique.
Well, not everyone is happy out there. Saw lots of mudslides around, and, Palm Springs where I was before that week had major floods.
Surfwatch, HHI, Tidemark bdlg, 5516. Dedicated three bedroom. They definitely upgraded us and there was even a welcome gift as this trip is part of a 20th anniversary for us this year and a 50th one for my in-laws (who joined us for a long weekend, as we had overlapping weeks here and at Grande Ocean.)
Wyndham Founder; Disney OKW & SSR; Marriott's Willow Ridge and Shadow Ridge,Grand Chateau; Val Chatelle; Hono Koa OF (3); SBR(LOTS), SDO a few; Grand Palms(selling); WKORV-OF ,Westin Desert Willow.
Scored a last min II trade for a 2br Summit Watch starting last Friday for what was a fantastic ski weekend at nearby Deer Valley. Best snow in years and Sunshine to boot. No balcony but here are a couple photos from the window and exterior.
Grand Chateau, Room 3032. Looking south on the strip with Luxor and Mandalay Bay in the background. Nicely renovated room. Loved the cleanliness and customer service at this resort. Great location with easy walk to the center strip (across the street from the HGVC Elara TS and Miracle Mile Shops). Would definitely stay again.
Marriott Ocean Pointe - 2BR OF Master (of 3BR OF)
Dolphin Building - 2nd Floor - Room 6212
* Owner reservation made at 13 months + 1 week. Still got only 2nd floor in April :/.
Marriott "hotel" but somewhat like a timeshare, Momi Bay Fiji. We don't have an ocean view or ocean front. It's an over ocean bure, views from inside straight down too. They have glass on the sides. Bure 1022.

Sure admire your adventurous spirit, Steve. That's a long way from home, man.
I can now live out some of my "destination fantasies" through you guys.....Enjoy!!!
