The Front Desk staff sat outside while I waited to be checked in (I thought they were guests) after 10 minutes she came in and checked me in. The next day there was a roach in the room, housekeeping came in and changed the towels and left the roach on the floor. Our final day I went into by bag and noticed something on my infants tub that I keep the cereal in but took it for nothing (not knowing it was rat droppings) and threw it in the sink. I then made the bottle not realizing that the rat had bitten holes in the cover of the formula. Looking further it bit through my pads and left more droppings in my bag. I went to the front desk to ask for something to sanitize my items and housekeeping did not want to comply to the point he had to come to the desk to speak with me. He apologized and sent Clorox wipes to the room. I've worked in hospitality for years and there was no remorse or urgency to assist, I had to throw away the formula and luckily my infant was still sleeping and I had family on island who rushed to replace the formula. They never asked any if they could assist, nothing...this is completely unacceptable.

THIS HOTEL DOES NOT HOLD THE STANDARDS OF MARRIOTT HOTELS. Marriott has agreed to let the hotel use their name but don’t be fooled as we were. The hotel is located at the foot of a mountain. Surrounded by mountains on one side and the ocean on the other. It is an absolutely stunning location, but not convenient to anything else on the island. The staff is friendly but they lack training, the alcohol supplies ran out over the week we were there, no Gin, no vodka, beer selection was low, limited cordials . If you would like to appreciate the location you should rent a vehicle, and bring your own alcohol. Taking taxi's was very costly and limited after 7:00pm due to location. The dining options were very limited due to equipment failure and lack of funding to make the necessary repairs.

Beautiful location, it is far probably 30 minutes from anything major so make sure you have a rental car. Food and coffee is horrible, so I recommend eating elsewhere. I would stay there again. Staff seemed friendly. Tip- make sure before you say anything to the locals you start with "good morning, good afternoon, goodnight" its a sign of respect there and it truly makes a difference.

Don't Believe the Photos Online

As soon as we arrived I felt like we had been duped. The resort looks nothing like the photos on line and the staff acted like the guests were an inconvenience from the moment we set foot on property. There were plenty of staff sitting around on golf carts doing nothing and no one offered to help us with our bags. Many times we were waiting to be helped while staff were on their cell phones behind the desk or the bar. The restaurants were running out of menu items and pricing was not consistent with what we got charged. The furniture on our balcony was rusty and there were nails sticking out on the benches. Some of the sidewalks were impassable due to debris and dirt that looked like it had been there awhile. Not long after checkin I was chatting with a Hotels.com virtual agent to cancel the 3 nights at the end of our stay. The agent contacted the hotel for me and said yes I would get a refund. When I went to check out on Jan1 they had no idea I was checking out and as of right now I have not received a refund from you. I would like to be contacted to resolve this matter please.

One of the prettiest resorts on the island! The suites are well laid-out and the nearby hiking path to the tide pools is great! Staff was very helpful. On the downside, the location is isolated and Carambola's dining choices are overpriced and not very good. Their food is average at best. There should be a poolside bar/restaurant for small bites and drinks, at affordable rates. If the food was better, and more favorably priced, I think more people would stay in the resort for dining rather than leaving to go to other restaurants.

Grossly understaffed

Let’s start with the property is beautiful and the highlight of our stay. But that’s where it ends. The “resort” is grossly understaffed. Everyone around us would say the same thing, if only there was “one more”, i.e. one more server, one more food runner, one more bartender, one more housekeeping staff, one more front desk person. The potential of the hotel is undeniable but it’s not properly staffed. Housekeeping came to our room once in the 5 nights we stayed there. We would have to consistently obtain our own bath towels and take out our own garbage (which remained by the stairs for days on on end). The cherry on top was on the day of check out, which is at noon, housekeeping showed up banging on our door at 8:00 am to remind us that check out was at noon and came back 2 hours later. Magically housekeeping appeared more times that morning than in the entire time we were there.

The property is located in a very picturesque area! The view, the beach, the nature is just incredible! But location is inconvenient since it is very remote from either town. car rental is a must, if you plan to visit other places. Beach is mostly un-swimable due to the waves, pool was closed to renovation (which we got informed just a couple of days prior to our check in!) so staying at the property during the day was not an option- kids could not swim there anyway, so we took day trips to the towns, beaches and other 2 islands. Property seems to be severely understaffed. Food was okay-good, but service is extremely slow and very unprofessional, waiting for a check for 15-20 minutes is ridiculous. Lack of lighting made it look unwelcoming and unsafe. Parking is inconveniently located further from the rooms. Overall our stay was okay, but we spend just nights there and couple of dinners/breakfasts.

Worse Marriott affiliated hotel I’ve ever stayed

Service was very poor. Took 20 minutes to check in and there was no one in line. Asked front desk for change and was told “front desk doesn’t keep cash in hand. You’ll HAVE to go to the restaurant for that. That was the front desk clerk on duty the evening on 12/20. Breakfast Buffett was no better than a run down diner. Over $30 for crappy food. This hotel operates as though it’s going to go out of business. Everything seems to be about saving money. Housekeeping was poor. Towels not replenished, trash left out. I honestly can’t believe this is affiliated with Marriott. Would recommend other potential travelers to stay away. Save your money and stay someplace else.
