Some relatives just returned from a visit (Aug 2007). They stayed in a lower-floor garden view unit with one of the new Murphy beds. They report that the Murphy bed was very comfortable - much improved from the hide-a-bed sofa. Apparently the Murphy bed configuration has a built-in sofa. Not quite sure what it all looks like, but our relatives seemed impressed. Perhaps it looks like this arrangement: http://www.murphybedusa.com/mbu_bed_over_sofa_motion.htm
Yes we saw them this past Feb. These are pretty much the same as the site you pointed out. They looked very nice and of course anything would be better than the hide-a-beds. We used to take an air mattress with us when we used that side of the unit. Our only complaint is that in late May they still had not installed them in the upper floor units which is where we like to stay. We'll be going in October and will check to see if they're all in now.
Hopefully they have installed them...Just wanted to point out the sofa is in front of the murphy bed...just slide the sofa against the window and drop the bed down...cozy but comfortable for sleeping. Good luck and enjoy your trip.
We stayed Xmas week 2006 & the new Murphy bed was installed on the 5 th floor oceanfront unit. The bed is very comfortable. Seems to be a queen size hotel type mattress. We did not have to move the couch. We simply pulled off the cushions from the couch & pulled the Murphy bed down between the arms of the couch. This was a major improvement & will be especially useful to lock off & spend 2 weeks instead of 1. I thought the dark wood on the Murphy bed was a little out of place for the lighter colors in the room but maybe the decor is going to change on the next refurb. I also called the resort 10.06.07 & was told by the front desk (night shift) that all the Murhy beds were installed in all the timeshare units. You can call the resort to at 1-808-245-5050 to confirm. Aloha!
