Does anyone have a floor plan showing which rooms are on each floor? Like, here's a room on the second floor - it's a 1BR, and its room number is 1234?

Okay, we've managed to piece together the room types, their locations, and the room numbers for the Island Tower.

Here's an example of where the 1-Bedroom Villas with Preferred Views are on Floor 6:

We're still not sure about rooms 8754 and 8758, because we've got conflicting information about them. If anyone knows anything about those specifically, please let me know.

We're still not sure about rooms 8754 and 8758, because we've got conflicting information about them. If anyone knows anything about those specifically, please let me know.

Here's a look at all of the room types.

a few pieces of helpful info ...

• here are the total room counts
  
  
• all 91 of the deluxe studios (ds) in the new tower are 378 sqft ... the 447 sqft ones are in the long houses
• all 16 dedicated 2b (2b) are theme park view (looks like you already have this)
• none of the 26 dedicated 1b are appear to be preferred view ... some of the 1b available to book from the 2b lock-off (2b-lo) are preferred

I believe either ...

1. 4th floor, centre are 2x ds + 2x 2b + 7th and 8th floor, centre-south are 2x ds + 2x 2b-lo
2. 4th floor, centre are 2x ds + 2x 2b-lo + 7th and 8th floor, centre-south are 2x ds + 2x 2b
   
   

a few potential tweaks to your drawings ...

• it looks like your 8th floor centre-north balcony is a bit short in the 1b portion of the 2b-lo
• the four total duo studios on the 9th and 10th floor facing the golf course are drawn as deluxe studios (but you have them categorized correctly as duo studios)

I'm looking forward to the tower opening in a few weeks to confirm the building structure; I'm not sure when we'll know the room view categories definitively, but I hope soon (helps w/ point chart analysis)

You guys appear to be super, super generous with the view assumptions. Is that based on something?

My perception on the points chart changes incredibly if the theme park views are that rare. I was assuming the standards views would be a token floors 1-4 to pretend like the points chart was still within our atmosphere. Almost a 15% standard, 50% preferred, 35% theme park split.

I'm very confident in the view categories.

I'm very confident in the view categories.

Happy to hear! This brings down my extreme criticisms of the tower substantially. I think the views are a terrible value proposition.
