The entire facility was very dated. Whole facility was understaffed and staff was very untrained. Very few staff spoke very little english. Getting around the resorts was challenging.

What i didn’t like is the their transportation staff,VERY RUDE and UNACCOMMODATING. The Country club is very nice, but our log cabin is not worth it. The toilent STINKS! and also the HOUSEKEEPING STAFF DIDNT TAKE OUT ALL THE TRASH. Your reputation is wasted. Your performance fell far below expectations.

At checkin, I was offered access to the various services and facilities Prince Hotels provides to its guests. Upon learning I had a tattoo, that offer was rescinded, and I was denied access to areas that other patrons were not. This tattoo is of significant cultural and religious importance, yet in the year 2024, Prince Hotels clearly demonstrated they do not respect the cultural diversity of their guests, only the money they bring in. I urge all people who value freedom of expression, freedom of religion, and protection from censorship to choose alternative lodgings, rather than a Prince facility that does not share your values.

Our family loves the cottage. It was walking distance to the shopping area from the main reception. Depending on timing, it may take awhile for the buggy to take you to the main reception. We will definitely come back again.
