Vero is such a small resort that I don't think it really matters what building you are in. Asking for a specific room number is usually a good way to ensure that you don't get what you really want, since it's much less likely that they can fullfill a request for a specific room.
If it's a good view you are after, I would suggest asking for an upper floor. Units on the first floor usually only have views of the vegitation.
