Just got back from the Marriott Ko'Olina. We loved it. Can't wait for to get there for an exchange. The interesting thing is that I signed up as a walk on and they put us in with an inhouse sales rep. They had me down as a Summit Watch owner. Wow. I must own it now and I haven't gotten the paperwork yet.
In any event, they have this program called the Kama'Aina program that allows local residents to use resort amenities all year round. Does anyone know if these benefits can be acquired via a resale purchase? If so, I think I'll pick one up.
The only thing I didn't like was the unit floor plan. Marriott went with the 3 hotel room floor plan. Yuck. They build a purpose built timeshare and they don't spend the architecture fees for a modern floor plan.
Otherwise, the lobby area was spectacular. And, I love how they created the articifical lagoons. It makes for really nice beach front space easy swimming. The food at the pool was only average. How disappointing.
The Four Seasons, to contrast, had unbelievable food. Everything was fantastic.
