We had a very positive experience at KBV, in spite of the ongoing management changes. The ground floor unit in building E was clean and well maintained. Maintenance staff arrived minutes after I notified them about a defective lock on the screen door. The pool area seemed nice enough to me, although we didn't spend much time there. Chocolates and flower leis upon arrival and chocolates again upon departure. Friendly front desk staff and the guy doing the morning welcomes wasn't at all pushy, although it was raining so hard I think he just wanted to get it over with. I'd heard several comments about the beach not being good for swimming or families, etc. Well, I beg to differ, as we spent several days wandering up and down in both directions (a shoreline reef to the south for exploring and a beautiful sandy bottom beach to the north for swimming and boarding). It was spectacular and very few people. If you like solitude, this is the place to be. [Q=wendywins] We are going there on Nov 30 for 2 weeks so we will be there during your stay and are staying in buildings H and F. We have never found units in those buildings or in G in poor shape or dirty. Those are the only ones we stay in because those three are on the ocean while the others are back further from the beach. My concern has been whether the new ownership of the resort has meant lesser service or whatever since the new owners did cut back, it seemed, on local staff and dropped some sweet traditions.. You did not say whether you are renting thru RCI or a private owner. [Q=geoffn2] Any recent news on KBV? My wife and sister are staying there for a week beginning Dec. 7th. Feeling a little apprehensive now.[/Q][/Q]
