The other option is "Ocean Front Suite, 1 Bedroom Suite, 1 King, Sofa bed, Bathrooms: 2, Oceanfront" for $500.

Has anyone stayed in either of these rooms that can comment on whether it is worth it? The club access alone wouldn't be worth it to me as I'm alone for the first 4 nights. If the room is much nicer then it might be. I assume that the Suite does not come with club access? This seems odd, but it isn't mentioned specifically on the reservation like the other room.
If you are doing 9 nights,you could do a reservation for 4 nights when it's just you, and then one for the remaining 5 nights in the club room or suite (can't do 10 nights to get a second free night)?

While I haven't been there yet, from the room descriptions, pics, and floor plans; the rooms appear to be identical other than the view and club access.
