Hawaiian Inn Construction

Many people have had questions about the construction at the Hawaiian Inn…

Here are some answers for guests considering a stay.

There are actually 4 phases to construction.

If you remember the resort is shaped like a horseshoe facing the ocean with the north end having 4 condos that face the ocean and the south end has 10 condos that face the ocean.

Phase 1 — Is the flooring – this is completed

Phase 2 is the North end facing the ocean – balcony replacement – this is completed

Phase 3 is the south end facing the ocean – balcony replacement – this is completed

Phase 4 is the courtyatrd area around the pool  – balcony replacement

Phase 1 & 2 Began::

In Sept 2008 – they closed down the ENTIRE south 1/2 of the resort and redid the concrete floors and they removed the 4 balconies facing the ocean on the north end and those were repoured – replaced. The flooring work was completed around March 2009 and the balcony work was completed in July 2009 and the north end was reopened.

The floors for the north 1/2 of the resort were started in Sept 2009 and completed in December 2009

Phase 3:: All rooms at the south end were closed May 2009 and the balconies were removed and replaced. This area reopened Feb 15th and we spent Feb 5-15th down at the Hawaiian Inn getting our condos ready to rent out — they needed flooring work – carpet work – paint and a good cleaning.

Phase 4 is not scheduled to start until Sept 1st, 2010 and will probably go for about 1 year.

They will be removing all balconies around the pool and replacing them – so new balconies, new doors and really – New Hawaiian Inn.

So::

Phase 1 — completed 12-09

Phase 2  — completed 07-09

Phase 3  — completed 02-10

Phase 4  — to begin Sept 2010 to be completed ??

The plan is to build a walk thru tunnel to the pool from the lobby to the pool and enclose the balconies that are being worked on. We have no further construction schedule at this time.

Ocean Walk Resort — Timeshare Condo #520

Ocean Walk Resort Timeshare Condo 520

Ocean Walk is a unique property for several reasons…

You are able to get a room from a private owner, front desk or timeshare owner.

It is also a resort where there are several ways to rent a condo

This is the timeshare we rented for the Daytona 500 last year….we rented about 10 for the Daytona 500

dsc_00011

We got unit #520 at Ocean Walk Resort –north tower, ocean view condo….5th floor on the south end of building.
This condo has 2 balconies that are both oceanview — 1 balcony off 2nd bedroom — 1 balcony off living room. This location is a favorite for renters — having the 2nd balcony is always a favorite because of the additional privacy.

The floorplan is similar to this — only there is a 2nd balcony off 2nd bedroom

But the 1 thing that I really look forward to when I rent here is the goofy shaped towels in the bathroom…

And they completely stiffed me on the towels folded like a crab….
