and the rest of the Phase I units. All Phase I WSJ units are mandatory SVN units. Like Harborside, all of Phase I at WSJ was sold as fixed week units.
The rest of the Phase I units are perched on the hills overlooking the resort. They are in Buildings 31-34. They are studios, 1-brs and 2-br units.
Phase II's newer units at WSJ are called Upper Hillside or, more frequently, Bay Vista (BV). All Phase II units are voluntary SVN units. They are all 2-br and 3-br units. Almost all are float weeks. Phase II units are in Buildings 24-27 of the resort map llinked below.

There are no lockoff units at WSJ. I consider that a drawback to owning at WSJ.
