It is considered Ocean Front.

More Ocean View than Ocean Front but still, what a view!

It is considered ocean front. It is definitely the least desirable of the ocean front buildings but it has the most 2-bedroom villas considered ocean front.

That looks pretty darn nice. And being on the first floor, it’s probably one of the “worst” oceanfront views at WKORV!

Especially considering getting the OFD 1Bd was only 81K SOs (from WKV).
Surprise and Delight.

That is quite a deal! Normally they are hard to get even at 95,700 StarOptions. There must be some cancellations.

You must have been upgraded? I know you can't actually reserve it for 81K.

GOOD JOB!!!

Our 2nd time getting 2128 using just 81K SOs from WKV. $1000/wk for this 1Bd OFD is a deal even being the ‘worst’ OF at WKIRV.
I think it is Timestamp, but maybe I have a nice note in my file (perhaps from retired SVP SC?).

What was really nice is that our OFD studio for this week was in B3 and they changed it to give us the lock off . The other OFD studio is nicer - so we made someone very happy and we got to stick together.

We have just checked out of our Nanea 2-bedroom oceanfront unit and moved to a 1-bedroom resort view unit so we can stay until 5:00 pm at the resort since our flight to the mainland doesn't leave until late tonight.

These views are from Building 7 (Mahi'ai building), 2nd Floor overlooking the lagoon and plunge pool area.

Westin Princeville building 4, studio room 1403. We had a peek of the ocean over the golf course to the right. We could also see the morning sun lighting up the mountains above Hanalei. I was not thrilled with the location at first because it was a bit of a walk to the pools and the BBQ, but it grew on me as the week passed. Very peaceful. And I can confirm the studio now has a king bed.
