What does oceanfront mean?

Marriott's Grande Ocean does not guarantee ocean-view units. Views are categorized by the resort as either Courtyard or Close To Beach.

If you own a deeded week that says "Ocean Front" you are indeed entitled to the Ocean Front suites. Interestingly, your confirmation for 2020 will show "Close to Beach". No idea why. It didn't used to be this way. I'm thinking that Marriott farmed out some work to an overseas firm and in their language reinterpreted Ocean Front as Close to Beach. Marriott really need to fix this as it is very disconcerting.

Oceanfront is one of 4 buildings but it is rotated by floors each year for owners.
