They noted that the rebuild of 337 will take approx 5 days. We were moved to 342 which appears to have been finished. Differences we noticed from 338 include a new TV, new mood lighting added to the ceilings, new floors, and new wall boards. 337 should be done on Friday and 342 is definitely done (haven't asked but it is clear when comparing with 338); to note when requesting a SWV to try and get a recently refreshed one. Also, we received a 10% off coupon for Koko Grille, lobsters and champagne or beach BBQ as diamond members. Not sure if anyone has mentioned that yet.

For those considering either a RWV or a SWV, we prefer the SWV compared to our trip last year. While the RWV is larger and has a more extravagant bathroom, the layout of the SWV is much more efficient and centered around the phenomenal sunset view. Also, the snorkeling off the deck is great. We also prefer the smaller island and proximity to Vilu and Quiet Zone. When they were sorting out the construction issue, they offered to move us to a RWV but we declined to stay in a SWV.

One last difference we noticed is that Vilu has a completely new menu for breakfast and dinner; I had oysters rockefeller for breakfast this morning.

Love this place so much!!
