If you're a golf fan visiting the second week of January, ask for a room overlooking the course for a bird's-eye view of the PGA Sony Open from your lanai.

"On a great swimming beach and close to plenty of golf, this resort is perhaps best known for its lagoon, where guests can mix with bottlenose dolphins through the Dolphin Encounters program."

Ask for a room on the ocean side, even if garden view, to avoid having to frequently cross the street; rooms in the ocean wings seem larger, too.
Gayot Gayot
