One other thing that hasn't been brought up in the discussion regarding is that the view and the location of the room you end up with may be affected by the Multi-Day Check-in policy.
Because they offer check-in on Fri / Sat / Sun / Mon, there is a limited number of units coming available on any given day. For example, if you check-in on a Friday, there may not be a view availability until the following day. They can only give out the rooms that are available on the day of your check-in - if none are available, they can't give you what they don't have. In other resorts, where everyone checks in on the same day, ALL of the view rooms would be available on that day (with the exception of the rooms where people are staying for multiple weeks).
This last December, we checked into the Grand Bliss and were put in a unit overlooking the construction on the golf course. We had originally reserved a GM unit on the first day they came available to reserve (initially they didn't have a firm opening date for GB). As soon as we heard the GB would be opening in Nov. '11, we called and got our early Dec. reservation moved to the GB building. Upon check-in, and even though we had booked our room at the earliest day possible, we were told that no ocean view rooms were available because many of the rooms in the building weren't completed yet. We took golf course view at that point, and were then given the option of moving to an OV room the next day after another guest checked out. So, as you can see, the availability is reduced on any given day due to the staggered check-ins. Just thought I'd throw that into the mix too...
