I should have written them down but sorry I didn't. It was the top floor in the center. Their room door was on the oceanside but near the staircase side . The elevator and laundry room was diagonal to their room door. My mother-in-law said she even questioned them at check-in if she had the right room because she thought they all had 2 queen beds. She said they told her most did but not all. It was huge! Me on the other hand got a regular size room! LOL!

Thanks - just for the general FYI, we had a king room last year that was 2nd floor, room #2419 that had one couch. I don't think anyone over about 5' 4", 130 lbs would be comfortable sleeping on it. Since it's just DH and myself we loved having the king bed!

Thanks for the room number. We've been trying to snag a King-bed room for a couple years.

DH and I will be celebrating our 41st Anniversary at Vero in October. I would like to celebrate with a special dinner.
What restaurant would you recommend.
We will be cooking in a few nights and also trying the restaurants at the resort. But I am looking for something for a "special" dinner.
TIA

We love the Ocean Grill. Our Diner and our server were fantastic. Our server was always there when we need him but never a when we didn't. This is a link http://ocean-grill.com/~og/intro.html
We had diner with my sister and brother-in-law, they live in Jupiter, and drove up to see us. My sister is one of those who want to know exactly how her food is prepared and everything on the side or can you make it with out this or that. Then she doesn't even order that. He was good, sometime I think she does it on purpose. Well she raved about her diner and the service and has since gone back with some friends. Enjoy your anniversary diner.

Oriente at Costa D'Este (owned by Gloria Estefan and her husband)- it is amazing - truly a world-class dining experience.

Any updates on the beach situation?? Heading down on the 17th for 6 nights and was curious what the scoop was.

Thanks in advance,

We're there for 2 nights on the 19th and 20th as well....wondering what is going on with the beach...

Just got back last night after 8 nights and the south side of the beach was open and they had planned to get the north side (split by the deck at the ocean) sometime this week. The beach sand is not even close to what used to be there, it is dirt like, but still it was open and we were happy.

Rob,

We spent the nights in room 2418 and not only is 2419 a king on the 4th floor but also 2415 is.

It is my understanding as well that 2415 and 2419 are King OVIRs on the fourth floor. They are on the corners of the lobby area. The laundry is on one of the other corners and HA GVIR on the fourth (which could have a king as well?). We were in OVIRs 2416 and 2417 a few years ago with 17 being in the middle of the Inn building.

If you look at the outside of the building at the top most floor (4th) there are three rooms under the curved arch in the middle of the building (2416,2417,2418). The single balconies on either side, that are like dormers, would be the King rooms we are referring (2415 & 2419).

We stayed in the room on the right as you look at the photo. It was our first stay at VB 4 years ago great room.

Do most people buy trip insurance if they go in July??

I can't speak for anyone else but I'll be there in July for 6 nights and I hadn't given any thought to buying trip insurance.

I always travel in July and the only time I have bought trip insurance is for cruises.

Has anyone done a massage at the resort in the past year or so? We did several years ago, in a small room by the pool. Was wondering if the massage room has moved, and if your experience was positive. OR - anyone found a good day spa in the area?

My DSis did the yoga on the beach two years ago.

We have a group going to VB toward the end of June. Yesterday I was chatting with a DF who's going to be with us. They are making plans involving their road trip, DS and family have finally bought their plane tickets...it's starting to feel real to me!!!We're going to VB this year!!! It's been 2 years since we've been there.

Thanks for the info on the king rooms !!! My DH and I will be going next month to VB and this will be our first time. I was hoping to request a king room but was told that both king rooms have closed balconies. Can someone tell me if this is true. I really enjoy sitting on the balcony and looking at the ocean but I don't want to request a king room if I can't see the view.
Thanks for any info !!!!!
