Starwood Preferred Guest - Golf Villas at Westins Rio Mar, Puerto Rico

We are staying at a golf villa at Westins Rio Mar in March'06.

Has anyone stayed at the golf villas? Did you rent through a private owner or the Westin Rio Mar villa real estate department. We were told that if you rent through an owner you do not have access to the pools, beach, exercise room. To receive access to the pool, beach, etc. you need to rent through the real estate department of Westins Rio Mar. Any idea of distance from the golf villas to the pool/beach area at the Hotel?
