Here are some photos of our room from last week. Also, here is a description of the room:
We were in room 4626 last week. Here's what we got:
- 4th floor (highest non-club-level floor)
- newly-renovated (biggest plus for us was full use of the dresser top due to the TV being mounted on the wall)
- full balcony
- daybed
- garden view
- neighbors only on one side
- no neighbors above (the 5th floor does not expand throughout the whole resort)
- right next to the lobby elevators (but we did not notice any elevator noise)
- elevators also right at the Marketplace on 1st floor. Very convenient!!
The only minor negatives (and I wouldn't complain about these at all):
- vending area directly above us. This meant that periodically, we would hear ice cubes rolling across the floor overhead. Mostly, this was mid- to late-mornings when we should have been up and out early anyway.
- because we were close to the elevator, we sometimes heard small children running down the hall and screaming early in the morning before breakfast (6:45 - 7:45am). This is more the parents' issue than the hotel's.
- view did overlook the rooftop of the solarium and an a/c unit, but it did not bother us, and I would prefer this to a parking lot or overlooking the kitchen and loading dock (ours was a standard view room)
Bathroom/vanity area:
The shower curtain rod was one of the curved ones, allowing for more elbow room in the shower. Since this was our first visit, I'm not sure if this is refurbishment or not.

Closet:
There is a safe on the left wall of the closet.

View from our full balcony:
Straight ahead:
If I had panned down, you would see a portion of the top of the solarium and the A/C unit on top. That is BC Villas that you see in front of us.

A view from ground level to our room:
Our balcony is in the red oval. The club-level vending area balconies (as far as I can tell from the floorplan maps) are circled in blue.
