Also I was a little shocked that fresh coconut juice cost $20 per coconut.

Sorry but this is bad info and bad advice. SOWV #536 is about in the middle of all SOWVs and the pool was exposed to sun all afternoon in October. So other SOWVs would have a similar situation although to a slightly different degree; they all face more or less in the same direction, plus or minus a few degrees.

I am not sure if 4 is an accurate number for GV. I read on a TPG post that the base rooms are little less than 1/3 of total rooms... so still fairly small on a all suite property.
FOr those who have been there, is 440k-540k a good deal for the OWV?

4 is an accurate number. They're in the middle of the island, dark green villas, on the wiki map. How many nights are you paying 440-540k points for?

I can actually just book the room again myself for 100K. I might do that. I've been on hold for 15 mins now. The agent sees the 2.8mil and is trying to figure it out. (Well I didnt do that BECAUSE the new room had a freaking Jan 16 cancelation vs the August 2 of my old room.)
Now the agent is telling me cancelation for the 2.8mil points is Jan 11-in the past. (Although still shows Aug 2 online.) What a cluster F#$K.
In the end, the couldn't help or see the change in points in any history. I was told to email the hotel-which I did. I'd advise anyone to KEEP A COPY of their reservation.

I had a 5 night stay for 440k that is showing 1.7mil points. I didn’t want to deal with calling, but I’m unable to do award searches while logged in (but showing availability when not logged in). The whole website seems buggy so I’ll just wait until tomorrow. Will stay tuned if y’all are able to resolve. I unfortunately forgot to take a picture of the original reservations so hopefully it still works out.

Ok this is news to me then. I was hoping to get an upgrade if there are SOWV available. I have the choice of paying an additional $600 total for the upgrade from OWV to SOWV. Anyone who knows this property, is is worth $600????
