Also does anyone know if it is possible to stay in the beach front ocean junior suite, if I booked into the villa delux king, and used a suite upgrade cert would that work. Or if I booked into the oceanfront deluxe and used a room upgrade, would that also work?
Hi -- Just returned from the Royal Pavillion this week. I can confirm that, yes, this is a great honeymoon destination. The beach is vast and inviting and responsive to your requests. I would caution that the room category titiles are a little misleading. The "villas" are the lowest room category -- furthest from the beach and not recently updated. All of the rooms on the ground floor are now considered junior beachfront suites and the middle category of rooms are those located on the second floor.
Being new to the President's Club, I can't with certainty which upgrade option would be fool-proof but judging from the layout, I would think that by booking a beachfront room you should be upgraded to a Junior Beachfront Suite.
The beachfront suite is well worth it (ask for one with an awning) especially if on honemoon. A representative met us as we de-planed, escorted us to the Diplomatic line at immigration, secured our skycap and arranged our cab upon arrival. Being able to come out of our room, lounge 20 ft from the beach, dial 0 to have a butler cater to any request 24 hours a day and have canapes delivered nightly was also a nice touch.
If you're looking to add value, I also consider giving the couple meal certificates $80 a day for breakfast adds up rather quickly. Hope that helps.
