So...any difference in Plat benefits? Room upgrades? High on my list is a quiet room with nice views, preferably of the Atlantic.
No experience in actually staying at either place (we have a time share in the same plantation as CP), but if a view is important at the CP, get a high floor, at least the 3rd. There's a sort of a high sand dune between the property and the beach itself, and there's also a plantation clubhouse and a large entertainment pavilion in that area, so there is lots to block your view.

Also regarding the CP: The security guards on that plantation have been deputized, and they are not afraid to give out speeding tickets. 25 mph is the limit, and wear your seat belt.

PM me for more.
