My family and I spent a week at VB June 10-16, just absolutely loved it. We had a one bedroom with a partial ocean view. We tried the Shutters character breakfast, which we did not care for at all. We ate at Sonya's one night, we really enjoyed it. We tried the Ocean Grill on another night, alot of people reccomended this place , we thought it was okay but probably would skip it next trip. We ate at the Patio several nights, we really loved this place!!!
We were chosen for the Turtle Patrol on the first night it was offered. We felt soooo fortunate to partcipate in this!!!!!! My 8 yr old talked the rangers head off on the way to the turtle. When we arrived she was laying her eggs, the ranger asked my son to name her, she became Marley!!! He said they had had many Shelly's but never a Marley. We were allowed to touch her as she made her way back into the ocean. Hands down the most memorable event on our entire vacation. The next afternoon after returning from the beach one of the turtle scouts met us at our door with a gift and card for my son to commerate the previous nights event!!!
We will return to VB next summer!!!!! I can see why people love it there. My boys took advantage of several of the programs offered. We all enjoyed putt putt.
On one afternoon we went to checkout the grand villa, they were having afternoon snacks and we felt this was a great time to scout it out for future trips. When we were looking around a gentleman asked if we were members. We told him yes and he invited us up for trivia. I'm so glad we went, I ended up with 1800 points and got lots of neat VB stuff(Beach towel, mouse mad, coasters, suncatcher, waterbottle, beachball, a bucket of goodies for my kids).
We LOVED VERO!!!! Any questions ask away.
