I worked in hotels for 10+ years and I’m so disappointed in this stay. Not the staff’s fault, but I’m very disappointed
Pros:

The tiki bar bartender was AMAZING. Such a good guy, did a great job. The front desk agent who had only worked at the property for a week handled a very stressful situation with ease. She was phenomenal. The staff we encountered was great.

Cons:

We checked in, one pool was caution taped off, it’s opening weekend so we didn’t think anything of it bc it happens. Our room flooded bc of the guest above us so we had to move mid-stay. Our keys didn’t work for the new room. Our tv didn’t work in the new room. I called the front desk to get assistance and they offered to reset the cable…it never turned on and after that our calls went to voicemail. The bartender at the tiki bar was phenomenal. The front desk agent was amazing in handling the room flooding considering it was her first week on the job.

Great place to stay
Pros:

The staff are all very friendly! Unfortunately for us the weather wasn't warm enough to swim so we didn't get to experience that for review, however the pool and hot tub looked clean and fun! The bar beside the pool was great and the server friendly. The room was clean and bed comfortable, would def stay here again.

Cons:

Small downside would be the 4pm check in time. A little earlier would be nice but I also understand staffing can be an issue so it wasn't a big deal we just had to hang on to our luggage for awhile longer. More difficult without a car and only a golf cart.

Good hotel but too expensive to be as dirty as it was.
Pros:

The view and the pools.

Cons:

The bugs inside of the screened porch were nasty. It looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a year. I hated that I couldn't rent a golf cart by the hour.
