I hate the fees myself, I bought when they were $695 at Poipu, before Sunterra, but I have always gotten what I requested. Got up at 5 am this morning to reserve oceanfront Mar 12, 2011. Yes, I do plan in advance, thats the only way to get what I paid for. If my plans change and I want to go on shorter notice, then I will get whats available, I'd grumble about gardenview, but thats what I get for waiting.
Few years ago, I was at Poipu, went to front desk at midnight to 'fax' in my reservation request for the following year, there were 4 other people doing the same thing. Of course they charged me $3 for an outgoing fax to the office around the corner, but that's a different discussion.
