Beautiful day. Empty resort, beaches, pool etc. We just can't use any of these amenities, just admire it.

On another note we are down to about 11 occupied villas at this time.

Grounds keepers are still working and pool personnel are restaining the rocks around pool area. Lots of maintenance being done in rooms also. Like changing light bulbs, fixing broken hinges etc.

There are some rental bikes at a couple of locations in Koolina if you want the exercise.

Have just been walking around the resort. Also been feeding the swans, geese and ducks as the golf workers have been out since last week. Have seen them feeding the wildlife most mornings before the stay at home work order. Figure no one is has been feeding the animals for a few days.

Pretty cool walking around a deserted resort. Seems like my own private playground.

I was just there this morning with my dog. You might have seen me walk by. No lagoons or beach to visit, but a very safe, and beautiful place to walk. And walking while maintaining social distance is an essential activity. Some are even walking the golf course cart paths. Hopefully, the resort will turn a blind eye to that and not shut it down.

First day of the month siren test right now. No tsunami.

I actually saw a family set up a soccer goal on the greens and were playing soccer. Just a mom, dad and 2 kids. It was at the Centex homes right after monkeypods. Also have seen quiet a few people walking the course. Wife and I will be walking it later today for exercise and a nice break from staying in the room.

Was not out this morning and did not see you. If you see an Asian guy with glasses and shaved head come and say HI. Of course we have to observe the 6ft distance rule .

We are 1 of the 11 rooms here. Stopped by front desk yesterday and asked one of the associates room occupancy. Response was "Oh we can't give you that information" 1st time I had heard that from any associate at any resort. Just back from our morning Ko Olina golf course walk. 12,000 steps from Villa and back following golf cart path. Beautiful day today! Couldn't ask for a better or safer way to social distance.

That's because the usual stock response is "we're fully occuppied" and it's obvious that would be a lie if they were to make that claim now.

Nice sunset view. Really quiet as I dont think there are more than 3 other rooms occupied. I believe NAIA tower is also now closed. At least I did not see any room lights on.

This will be the last week the FD associates are working. They will be on furlough as of next week Sunday.

Thanks for the link. Walked over and got a dinner plate my wife wanted. Lots of people walking the gold course.

If you see the 3 of us feeding the swans, geese, ducks etc by Roy's please say HI. We have been feeding them on Monday and Wednesday. Will be out probably tomorrow with my nephews.

Today is a far cry from the Easter crowds of 2018.

Yes everything is closed. No restaurants, pools, hot tubs, workout room and activities. Basically walk around the resort and feel like it is your own playground.

Grande Ocean at Hilton Head. Told roughly 20 units occupied. Been basically isolated. Closest we’ve come into contact with another soul was the person counting the people entering and exiting at the Harris Teeter. Cooked in the unit for the first five days. Plan to get takeout at the Salty Dog (25% off menu prices) during bike ride tomorrow since we have the Sea Pines bike pass. Walked beach and have taken rented bikes for a spin each day and seen only a few people and alligators. View from our balcony attached along with a shot of our new friend bubba whom we met on a bike trail.

Great view from high floor in Starfish Bldg!!! (Looks to be 4th floor)
Hope you're having a wonderful time in spite of the times. Weather has been outstanding, ideal actually.
We have several consecutive upcoming weeks at GO in June, hoping it'll work out.

I'd tell you to say hello to "Bubba" but there are about 250 Bubba's at HH at any given moment, LOL.
(Ohio natives I suspect)

Search has failed me...does anyone have photos or links to the 3BR, 10th floor (top) view from Maui Ocean Club Napili tower? I've found a few photos from the lower floors, but would like to see viewpoint from the lanai and the studio. Seems like Molokai tower really infringes the view in this diagram, compared to the Lahaina tower.

It also looks like the Napili 10th floor also has the open railings design, with a low wall on the lanai.
