I am somewhat surprised that a standard room in the Corjito Village is more expensive than a Montelucia Signature Suite. And I'm almost even more surprised that a Montelucia Signature Suite is $70 cheaper than a Fountain/Kasbah Suite as I'm not sure there is any difference between the two of those categories.
Same with the non-suite version of those two categories and their $20 price difference considering that there is no difference. I guess they just use those terms to try to wrangle more $$$$ out of suckers?

If you have a choice between an actual view room (Camelback View or Kasbah Poolside), then definitely choose that over the Montelucia Signature room. If you choose the Signature Room, they will just stuff you in any old room that is available, possibly looking into a wall or with a bad view or something.
