Wyndham View From the Balcony

Ha - I can see our room from yours. Building on the right, 3rd floor. Very nice resort, we really enjoyed it there.
Yes - really nice resort and those lake view rooms have a great view. We were there in May this year and it was too cold for the pool. Need to make it back in warmer weather.

Four shots from the balcony of Unit 5001 at Wyndham Royal Vista. The first two were taken the day before Ian hit. The third was taken the day Ian hit the Florida west coast. It doesn't really show how "angry" the sea was. The fourth was taken the day after Ian hit.

The view from room 2531 at BB where we are right now for the week. It’s a bit early in the fall foliage season and it’s overcast today but we are still happy to be here!

I am very jealous. That may be where we were in June. Pretty much a home away from home for my family. They were putting the siding and roof on on the lower buildings when we were there, it looks great. Enjoy!

Thanks Sandi. I typically ask for top floor with a view here at BB, but they couldn’t do it for us this time around, so we are third floor “corner” room at the end of the hallway instead. We were here in early august for a long weekend and I don’t recall seeing any construction at that time but we were also in the upper building last time so I may just not have noticed.

Yes that is what BB stands for - apologies on the abbreviation. Less to type on my phone.

(The point in the distance in the middle picture is the Kilauea lighthouse.)

We drove out to the lighthouse after dark to view the night sky. There's a parking area just before the lighthouse that you can pull into to get out of your car. It's really dark once you get farther out the lighthouse road and with no ambient light once you're there that makes it a good spot to see the stars. So, so many stars, and the Milky Way.

Wyndham Shearwater Unit 311 (2B Pres). Wow! These units are point-heavy, but if you have points to burn...

I know you said you had exchanged with RCI to get Hilton. In your opinion, is using Wyndham points to stay at the Hiltons via RCI a better bang for your buck than using Wyndham points to stay in Hawaii? That was my conclusion when I researched all the locations. Costwise, they were similar but the Hiltons have significantly better amenities.
 
@bnoble We were in that unit via exchange last year. Fantastic view. I was very pleased with the unit assignments we had through RCI exchange, but I know not to take a Thursday check-in. Those are almost all by the pool, not that it's terrible, but it's not as quiet, and the views are somewhat obstructed.
