Marriott's Grande Ocean

Grande Ocean Renovations

Apr 07, 2008

It looks like the photos of the second bedroom are now 2 queen beds...? We haven't been there for a few years and only remember 1 queen bed and a hide-a-bed couch in the second bedroom. Does anyone know if all the units have been renovated with the 2 queens in the second bedroom? Any insight on this? Which buildings are now with the 2 queen beds?

Peggy, About 90% of the units now have two queen beds in the second bedroom. The only ones that don't are some units in each building that don't have room; but they still have the hide-a-beds. The "down to concrete" renovations were completed about 16 months ago and they look great. The WiFi Internet access everywhere, the ocean view fitness center, and improved activity area in the Ocean Spa are all big improvements.

Wow, 90% have 2 queens. I think its a great improvement. Honestly, a bed for sleeping is much more comfortable than a hide-a-bed by a long stretch! Thanks for your input, I appreciate it! Did you know the Grande Ocean received the Marriotts Best Resort of the Year award between all their worldwide villas?? Can't beat that -- its a great award!
