Having just got here I will wait a few days before posting a comprehensive report. Mahalo!
looking forward to the report. ^

in terms of value, there isnt much of a beach, and you have a "small" room instead of a large villa (which might be beachfront or overwater) even if you dont care about things like private pools.

also, one thing ive wondered about is how crowded it gets during peak season, considering there are probably a lot of residential members. although there are member-only offerings, and limitations. (hualalai club) and perhaps FS went the nonbranded route there to avoid a situation more like FS punta mita, where its reportedly getting more crowded as branded residences/fractionals continue to be built.
