OKW Expert Needed

[Nana Sue]

Can anyone tell me which OKW units are non- smoking and which contain grand villas? Thanks!

[DebbieB]

I'll get out my trusty list (keep it on a post-it on my OKW map in my Member Guidebook):

Smoking Buildings:

12, 19, 21, 25, 27, 41, 49, 51

Grand Villas:

15, 16, 19, 22, 25, 29, 43, 49, 50, 53

This list was posted over a year ago and did not include the new buildings (62, 63, 64).

Does anyone know about 62, 63 and 64?

I do know that the new buildings (62,63,64) are all non smoking, and at least one of them has GVs, but I can't remember which one! I think it is 62.

Does anyone know for sure which one of these three has a grand villa?

Member Services would know.

Here's a question - We reserved a one bedroom for May 3 at OKW. We would like a non-smoking room. My mother will be joining us for a couple days of the trip - she lives in Florida. She smokes. Can she smoke on the balcony/patio of a non-smoking room or is the whole building considered non-smoking?

Why don't you search the board for a couple of similar threads within the past few months. The short is answer is that most people feel it's not ok but there are dissenting opinions.

Building 63 does...room 6322, I believe...stayed there last year...great room....

Interesting room as it is handcapped accessible with the elevator....the masterbath has a wheelchair accessible shower and the kitcher is made so that some in a wheelchair can work at the sink and counter with no problem....

The porch off the living room overlooks the island green of the LBV golf course...nice to sit there and watch the golfers some.

We found it to be very quite...some noise can be heard from the early morning buses...but it is not bad....

2001: Grand Villa @ OKW

According to our guide, one of the reasons for putting elevators in the new buildings was to make some handicapped accessible Grand Villas. Since Grand Villas are all entered on the second floor of the building, none were accessible to people in wheelchairs before these buildings.
