Hilton Grand Vacations Club at Sea World is half a
block from Sea World. The rooms and resort are gorgeous! High rise
buildings with elevators have a Bermuda theme. some rooms have
fireworks views from Sea World, the rest overlook pretty
landscaping, small lake and/or pool areas. All villas with a
fully-equipped kitchen also offer a DR/LR, washer/dryer, king MBR
suite with double Jacuzzi and separate shower, screened balcony or
patio w/ table and chairs. Varied room layouts from studios to
very large 3-BR luxury suites. High quality furnishings and
appliances, pretty decor. Lobby area included a gathering room
with grand piano and a small theater. Besides the typical resort
amenities, there's a croquet lawn and putting practice green. The
small lake is surrounded by a bicycle path. This resort tempts you
to skip the theme parks for a day or two of R-n-R. |

Pool Description/Comments:
|
The main pool area has two large pools, one heated,
with waterfalls & fountains. There are 4 large hot tubs of
varying temperatures and a kiddie pool. Large sun deck w/plenty of
lounge chairs as well as tables for seating. This area is central
to most other recreation offered at the resort - very attractive
and upscale. There is at least one additional "quiet
pool" area at the resort. |
