That's great news. In my opinion, it would have been a big loss if FC lost ability to use facilities at the Reef.

Thanks for the post.

Still no guarantee of access though? That would be a separate agreement between the Frenchman's Cove HOA and the hotel operator. Something that could have continued even if it wasn't a Marriott.

Correct. But it seems it’s far more likely to occur now that it’s a Marriott.

I doubt it will include the Autograph collection part of the resort but likely still have shuttle to the main hotel

Agree. The hotel privileges never included the pool at the beach area.

So are there 2 pools at the hotel area? I thought FC owners did get access to some pool over at the hotel in the past? Was that not the case?

There were two pools—one right at the main hotel and another one over by Coco Joes in a shaded area—so I am guessing hotel one may still be an option for FC but not one close to Autograph
section?
The beach at Morningstar was always nicer than one at FC and in past FC guests could use lounges there too
Time will tell
Was hoping some members who visited recently could give an idea of progress on new hotel
