Vistana views from a BALCONY - Post your best photos!

[alwysonvac]

When I attach a file/picture from my IPhone, after I pick a picture from my album it comes up and then along the bottom it says how big it is. If I hit that along the bottom, it gives three sizes I can choose. I am usually able to chose large and then just hit add and it goes on. I didn’t set anything up, it has just always worked that way.

Thanks for the tip.
It looks like I just have to tap on the defaulted size. For me it was “Actual size” to get the dropdown option.

Yep, that’s it. I was going to do a screen shot when I posted my next picture. Glad it helped.

All,

One of my favorite threads on the Marriott board is when TUGgers post the view from their balcony -- it's a great tool to get a sense for what the view plane is like from different properties and buildings.

I do not know if there is a similar thread here on Starwood board, but if not, I hope this catches on.

Best,

Greg

Stitched panorama taken during sunrise (note white cloud bank over Lanai Island). This is the parking lot view many comment on. I’d take this south facing location as a second choice after OF any day.

The south facing isn't bad. It's the east-facing parking lot views (with the noise of the highway) that are the worst.....

Yes, whenever people talk about parking lot views at WKORV I assumed they were talking about the IV units in Building 4 not the OV units in Building 3 that face the park.

I got one of those OV units facing the park in building 3 on our trip earlier this year, which was the first time in my (almost) two decades of ownership that we weren’t facing the pool. I actually really liked that side, it was more peaceful (no pool noise) and when I was on the lanai, I found it more interesting to watch the goings-on in the parking lot than watching kids in the pool would have been. I will probably request that side in the future.

The only disturbance was the noisy daily round of the guy who goes around lighting the tiki torches at dusk, blowing the horn and shouting A-LOOOOOOOOOO-HA! Kind of cheesy and I didn’t appreciate it but the kids who followed him like he was the pied piper apparently did. That was either something new or something I’d never heard on the pool side of the building.

Here’s a pano from inside 3528 (complete with the Costco box of wine) on May 4. The A-LO-HA crew was very loud from here as well. But awesome views from inside and the lanai.

That 'disturbance' was new to me too back in March and carries on throughout the properties. We own IV at WKORV-N and always like getting an 'inside' looking room in building 6, back towards to lobby and overlooking the koi ponds. Very peaceful, apart from the tiki torch lighting parade.

WKORVN room 6450. Not so much for the view from the balcony (which isn't bad for II exchange), but rather of the balcony (one of the few supersized balconies above the lobby area).
