Overpriced for quality of hotel

Rooms need renovating, room had no heating during winter which made the room very cold. Bed was the most uncomfortable hotel bed we’ve ever slept in. Charged $30 for a 1 hour leave check out with a baby. Have travelled all over the world and have never been charged this for a 1 hour late check out. We also arrived at 10pm the night before. Nice property grounds that’s the only nice part.

Very run down, the room we had badly needs a revamp. Old furniture, furniture worn, bed certainly needs replacing. Loud ac., motor roaring on the balcony. Old ac. Cleanliness was good. Not sure if this is right for all the rooms, we paid $179 with a holding fee of $150 which they say we have back in 48 hours! Not happy about that. Dinner at the resort was ok, pizza was good, had trio of dips which was nice but bread was burnt and tasted burnt! Grounds are nice, looks 5 star on the outside. Needs money injected into the Resort.

Beautiful resort, the only drawback was the lack of table service in the restaurant I would have expected from a resort. The self service QR Code system was not easy to use.

We loved our stay. The golf course and putting green is very enjoyable. If the pools were heated that would have been a lot better, the water was freezing.. even the spa wasn’t warm for the kids. Besides that great spot! We will be back.. thank you
