Nice property, poor response when an issue arose
Pros:

I stayed at this property on and off for about 38 days while taking care of my father’s affairs. Overall, I truly enjoyed the stay — the grounds were nice, the accommodations were comfortable, and it was a good place to be during a difficult time.

Unfortunately, toward the end of my stay I had a health and safety concern. What was most upsetting was not the concern itself, but how it was handled afterward. I reported the issue, submitted a written complaint, and was told management would follow up.

No one ever contacted me. There was no response, no explanation, and no indication that the concern was addressed. Given the length of my stay and the circumstances I was there under, the lack of care or communication was very disappointing.

I’m sharing this so future guests are aware — the property itself was enjoyable, but follow-through and responsiveness when an issue arises were lacking.

Tranquil!
Pros:

The pool was nice and close to the room. Also loved having a restaurant on the property.

Cons:

My only c9mplaint was the toaster didn’t’t work, but everything else was so nice I didn’t even mention it. I am sure they would have brought up another for us.

It's not a hotel
Pros:

Took my son for a birthday golf vacation week.
Warning: if you think this is a hotel . . . wrong.
It's some sort of vacation time share. The room was about 10' x 20' two square holes in the wall under the TV, no room service, a peculiar 'foody' smell and worst of all, no amenities. Want morning coffee? - drive. One restaurant, a pizza shop, open evenings only. When I complained, response was, well, 'we have better rooms had you said something' and 'we're not a hotel you know.' No I didn't.

Pros:

The property was very clean and pool area beautiful. We were there for 1 night and the room was okay for just 1 day. It had no patio facing the pool so it had a feel of a motel. The price was high for what the room actually was. To many other options near by.
