Stumbled upon the resort map and room distribution here. Surprised that there’s only 6 categories of rooms including the Presidential suite and two bedrooms. Perhaps they’ll later subcategorize?

The WA standard villas are certainly not 300 sqm. While I never looked at the specific size, I'd warrant a guess that 150 sqm is probably same same. But I guess it depends on what they include in the measure.
