Food needs a major update! I got terrible food poisoning or something that make me vomit from 12-4am! I had the lentil salad from Lakes restaurant. It has taken me the better part of two days to recover. Also the hamburgers were burnt and the food took over 45 minutes to come! We are frequent visitors but will bring our own food next visit. Very disappointing for such a lovely resort.

Sadly overall this hotel was an underwhelming experience. From check in to check out we experienced issues. It was my husbands 50th birthday and we were five in our family. To start they could not find our reservation with Expedia and said, “it has not arrived to us yet” My comment was “I booked July 13th and did the online checkin.” We went to eat something and waited 45 minutes - they still didn’t find it but they checked us in anyway. Our room had 3 towels and no bedding for the second bed. Considering we were obviously 5 people and paying $1000 a night seems like a very illogical oversight. The next day we ate the buffet for breakfast, the food was cold. We ate in the same restaurant for dinner and the buffet was cold again with flies all over it. When we talked to the manager about it, we received a lame excuse that there are a lot of children at the resort so they don't cover the food. The coffee was also cold anywhere we got coffee on the resort. The burger on the menu is the best option for food for sure. The prices are steep and the quality lacking. The public washrooms were filthy, there were towels all over the place but good luck finding them at the pool. The staff is friendly and attentive but overall the property seems like no real hotel management leadership. At the end of our stay we could not wait to leave and the icing on the cake I was overcharged by $3000 on my bill that I know have to deal with.

I have been here multiple times and enjoyed it 6-7 years in a row. My friends and I paid a huge bill for the steak house it was mediocre at best. The lifeguards by the lake were awful not in duty for the play area. The service was average cafe closes early nowhere to get coffee. 60 dollars for two glasses of wine at the bar. It was okay this time not more.

All in all we had a good time .not much to do outside of the resort so be prepared to stay on the premises for your entire stay. Food is pretty expensive so bring lots of snacks. Staff are nice and the spa is great too, the pool at the Spa area needs some TLC, the paint is coming off and got on my hands and swim suit, lots of missing tiles also.

First of all, the property is stunning and absoloutly amazing. The views from all over are truly breathtaking. The property alone is enough motivation to return. A couple things to keep in mind though.. Stairs. Lots of stairs. A million stairs.. walking the property and getting down to the beach is a work out. Not easy to get up and down quickly, so plan a head. Housekeeping should be better at this pricepoint. Rooms equipped with kitchens.. but not cleaned thoroughly. If people are eating in the room.. you need to vacuum. Crumbs will happen and they are obvious evidence the cleaning was not thorough. Pools dont have food or drink service. You can bring your own snacks.. but would be nice to be able to have a drink by/in the pool, or a bar nearby. No gift shop.. just a very small coffee shop with toiletries and snacks for sale, open for limited hours. Service is not bad necessarily, but it is not impressive either. At this price point and quality of property.. you would expect staff going the extra mile to cater to the guests. Overall, the stay was wonderful and we will be back. Travelled with children and we did not get to do every activity - not enough time and the pool seemed to be the main highlight.

Great hotel with Some issues
Rented two rooms. One had a failed AC unit and water leak and the other was a wheelchair accessible room and did not have a proper shower. We had to wait a couple of hours for new rooms. One of new rooms was not properly cleaned. Both rooms had no hot water on multiple days. Staff were friendly, great and helpful.

The property itself is very nice. They have a huge opportunity in service consistency. The people on the front desk were great, and a few of the staff, unfortunately the bad out weighed the good. The food options are good and ridiculously overpriced. We don’t mind paying a premium (hence why we came here) but the food and service did not live up to Marriott standards…

Beautiful property. Great pools and walking trails and the rooms are excellent. Lack of cohesion in the restaurants… long wait times for food at lunch restaurants. A la Carte restaurants were excellent
