I know that this is an old thread, but I was wondering if anyone can tell me if the Shearwater is constructed with concrete or wood. If wood, are the lower floors bothered by noise from people walking on the floors above?

We could hear people walking above. Not a problem though. I suppose it could be if they were really loud. But we find that to true in any timeshare (or hotel). Even next door neighbors banging doors and cabinets can be heard in many places. We’ve adjusted our expectations (if we didn’t we would never travel) since we can’t afford private home rentals all the time.

Shearwater is worth it since you get the stunning ocean view.

Wood. We own first floor units. We spend a lot of time on the lanai. We hear the folks above us. We don't notice the noise of people walking in their unit so much at night.
