Elevators and rain don’t mix
The staff was wonderful. The storm took out the service elevators and only one elevator was available. Took one hour to get down from the 15 floor. Rain was coming in from ceiling in their beautiful lobby.

When we arrived we had planned on going to the pool & hanging out at the swim up bar. This was the whole reason we booked this hotel. Well it was 86 & sunny outside & we were told it was closed because of the weather. Front desk told us it would reopen momentarily & one of the cabana boys told us it was not reopening at all that day. Needless to say, my husband & I were extremely upset about this. For me to spend that much on a room & not be able to use all the amenities that are advertised is a disgrace. We will never stay at this Resort again. Everyone we talked to told us a different story. Well we left to go have drinks somewhere else & several hours later they finally reopened the pool bar. I had planned this stay for my husbands birthday & for the majority of the trip we were very upset from this incident & did not enjoy ourselves at all whatsoever. Such a waste of money, never again!!

The pool area is great! We relaxed and enjoyed it for hours! A happy place! The price was a little too high for a sort of run down room…over $500 for one night for a family birthday party visit. No light bulb in nightstand and the bathroom door wouldn’t close. Our teenage granddaughter was with us or it wouldn’t have mattered . Maintenance arrived quickly though and adjusted the door for the night so we could partially close it rather than take it down to fix it then. All of the staff was friendly and very helpful. Overall it is a great place. It is the end of the summer and I bet it was just heavily used during the beach season. We have stayed here many times before and will come back. I’m just being a little picky because of the price.

Upon arriving at the resort, we were offered a room upgrade for $60 with the promise of exclusive access to an adults only pool. We were able to take advantage of this the first night and it was wonderful. The second day, the adults only pool we were promised access to became restricted and only those who had purchased cabanas in that area were allowed to us them. We decided to use the lounge chairs by the regular pool. Keep in mind, there was nothing on these chairs stating we could not sit there or that the chairs were reserved.This was fine until we had been there about 2 hours. Abruptly, a staff member came up to us and demanded that we leave our seats because a VIP had arrived and they MAY want to use these loungers. I had interacted with at least 3 staff members prior to this employee and no one told us we could not use these chairs. I told the employee to give me just a few minutes to collect our belongings. He loomed over me and started trying to move my belongings. I was extremely dissatisfied with the interaction. The upgrade we paid for also claimed that our suite would be "ultra-modern." I guess popcorn ceilings are back in style. The servers and housekeepers were great. We will likely not return to this resort.
