Hi from HGVC at SW Orlando. Arrived yesterday. Checkin was a snap. We are in a 3br which consist of a 2br and a lockoff studio. The 3br is huge and really nice, I think one of the nicest time shares we have stayed in. Very large living/dining room, nice very well equipped kitchen, bedrooms are large (king in master, 2 full size in 2nd br, queen in 3rd and big jacuzzi in master br), also has large screened in patio that opens from lv room and master br and another screened patio off 3rd br lockoff.
All in all I am impressed with the accomodations, staff and place in general so far. They have 3 pools which are all heated, but one is down for construction.
Here is url to a few pics of unit, will post more later:

Great to hear about the resort Ken. I'm going myself in two weeks, also staying in a 3 bedroom unit. Is there a particular building or location that we should request that has an advantage over other parts of the resort? I've heard that you can see the SeaWorld fireworks from some of the units.

Norm,
I had heard that also, but, haven't been at the unit at that time so far I don't know. We are in building 3 (St George's) and I don't think we would have much of a view from out porch. Building 2 looks like it might if you get a unit on the sea world side, We're going out for the day today but I'll see if I can get a resort layout and take a look at it tonite and post a bit more later.
You will like the units tho, they are really nice and quite big.

Norm,
The units that are closes to Sea World side of the resort are in Tucker Town Building (12 I think). The back of this building faces Central Florida Parkway which right across the street is Sea World. The next building over which is Smith's looks like it also has some rooms that face Sea World.
We still haven't heard any fireworks yet tho, so don't know if they still have them or not. Also, I read somewhere that there are only 3 BR's in 2 or 3 buildings (St/ George' being one of them)
Anyway, you will like the resort, the units are really nice and spacious and it is close to everything.
Have a great time when you go.

Thanks for all the information Ken. Maybe this time of year SeaWorld doen't have fireworks. In any case I'm sure we'll have a great time. We stayed there in a 2BR unit once, but I don't remember much about the resort. I can't wait! Enjoy the rest of your stay.
