I'd say the W. Granted, I visited the StR a few years ago, and at that time, they didn't have wave breakers across the villa. So, perhaps there are some fishes there now, but I did see a lot by the large OWV. At the W, within just a few yards, you're surrounded by many colorful fishes, some sharks, and turtles.

I finally got a response and thought that I could share the most recent pricing for meal/beverage plans:
Can anyone confirm these prices? We try to decide between the Alila and the W and the F&B prices seem (unexpectedly) high at the W? All-inclusive is 250$/day at the Alila...

I will be staying in February and little concerned.
If I change to JW, will the room rate remain the same?
It is a little bit, but the fare is W > JW.

Yeah, looks like re-opening mid January now. Brutal, no x-mas and NYE season for them. Something must have gone horribly wrong early on. They posted the January opening in late July - projecting a 2 month delay just 3 months into renovations is not a good sign.
We are booked January 20-26 … I sure hope they can stick to their revised schedule!

Do the seaplanes land directly at the resort or do they use a platform away from resort with a speedboat transfer? I read some negative reviews regarding the noise and fuel smell from the seaplanes. So, I am a little bit concerned about this.

They land the seaplanes at the hotel. This isnt an airport, youll get maybe 4 aircraft land in a day, the noise isnt a nuisance and I never smelt any fumes.
