Thanks Ron...we will bethere for 2 wks in Jan. do you know the GMs name? I want to put a request in for Hale 8.

Enjoy your stay!
No, don't know the GM, or anybody else, it's our 1st time here. Just make sure you don't get a Hale 8 parking lot view. There is actually a beach front house next door to Hale 8 and someone else is building a home next to it, must be nice.

The other day, we/Kauai set a record low high, for the coldest day in hsitory on that date. It's been very windy every day with rain every day, although the rain usually only lasts a couple of minutes. Rained all day monday though.

The barbecue grills look fairly new, GE Monograms, but the igniters are out on a number of them. Speaking of barbecue grills, off new grill our chicken breasts. :cheer:

My 2 cents...

GM is Christina Gabriel. Suggest you consider responding to their pre-arrival email, then speak with someone in Room Control. You can place a request in that fashion without going over peoples' heads.
(rcgrogan)Looks like you're an owner. You should have very good likelihood of getting your desired Building, especially in January. You might want to have a secondary request just in case.

Note: Owners have either Ocean View or Island View. DC points owners reserve one or the other. II exchangers should have no view expectation, and should expect an inferior view (and be pleasantly surprised if that turns out to not be the case). FWIW, ymmv. Cheers.

Women at front desk that I talked to said that Waiohai owners get ocean view, other Marriott owners get lagoon view, and renters and non-Marriott II exchangers get parking lot views.

Well, I can tell you that Marriott exchangers can and DO get the parking lot view. I did. I traded Maui Ocean Club, too.

What month/week were you at Waiohai?
