We were glad to have done the Beach Pool Villa at the Conrad as it was a free upgrade for our entire 6 day stay and we felt that we didn't need to do an OWB again after just coming from the Hilton Moorea.
The one thing to note about the Horizon View Pool Villa vs the normal Beach Pool Villa is that the Horizon View Villa is on the top of a hill. It's a pretty steep hike that takes about 5 minutes to get to your room. You can have a golf cart take you up but you will need to be prepared to wait for one to arrive. The views are phenomenal once you get on top of the hill where the Horizon View rooms are. The Beach Pool Villa's have great Ocean Front views that are on the part of the beach where there's very few people. We were about 30-40 yards from the water, with lots of tropical vegetation and flowers around the villa to create privacy.
Thanks so much for this info. It is helpful.
