Hi
@crystal2485
Skylights are in the newer sections of the resort, so the elevator buildings (Lakes and Cascades) will have them on the top floors. But since these are a few stories higher, there will be proportionately less of them. Falls, Courts and Spas are the sections without skylights. And yes, the first 2 sections built, Courts and Falls, are the 2 with long single beds.
I wouldn't agree that Fountains and Lakes (North Side) are quieter; if anything I think they are generally more full than the older sections (in normal times) because of the types of ownerships sold there. They are quieter in the sense that there are not quite as many amenities on that side of the resort, so there can seem like there is more going on on the South side of the resort. Last year specifically the North side has been quiet because they were concentrating guests on the South side due to COVID. I think that may have changed a bit now as things open up; hopefully
@Gina-Gina-Bo-Bina will comment on the activity level and precautions as they are there now; probably heading home tomorrow.
AFAIK all of the sections have been keeping up with their maintenance. The resort got a full restoration to all sections at the same time a few years back, and it has been reported that Lakes and Fountains have been recently refreshed from recent stays, but I know our Courts section had a full 'soft surface' (draperies, furniture, carpeting, etc) refresh this past year as well and I suspect all section HOAs have been doing the same.
