Question about El Dorado Seaside Suites

Thinking of booking a trip to ESS in August - my question is this: Concerning the swim up suites, are these ocean front, ocean view, or at the back of the resort? Also just curious if it is even worth the extra price.
I did some searching on ESS but could not find this answer.
Thanks in advance for any help!

The swim up suites are the furthest buildings from the beach, toward the back of the property. I know the map is small, I tried it another way and it was too big, but you can see the buildings toward the back with the blue in front - those are the swim up suites.

Thanks!

Thanks for the map and info shammy - it was really helpful. I did find the trip report by Indy Beach Bum from a while back, and that was really something and very helpful too.

She's a client of mine. And you're welcome!

FWIW.......I wouldn't pay extra for a swim out suite, there's a lack of privacy thing goin on there. Personally, I'd go for oceanfront, or at the very least - ocean view.

We stayed in one of the swim up suites last year and thought it was wonderful. To me the "beach front" suites were kind of a rip off because they weren't really beach front. Your view is blocked by beach beds, a small wall, etc. The swim up rooms are near the back of the resort and they are more private because of this. We thought the ambiance was great!
