Obviously, the reward chart doesn't mean anything when a property can charge nearly 3x times the published reward rate. The same room can be bought for usd $265.
Actually, it appears they have done the same as Bora Bora and Moorea. That is they are limiting award rooms to only the "Twin" rooms and considering the same room that has a King bed as a premium room.

How many people want to go to a resort and have twin beds?
