The rooms were very comfortable, clean, and modern, with beautiful views. I slept really well! The food at the restaurant was delicious, and everything we tried was fresh and well-made. The staff were super friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. The DJ by the pool wasn't great-the music felt loud and out of place, and it didn't really match the relaxing vibe of the resort. On the other hand, the live saxophone player was a really nice touch. It would've been great to hear more music that blended better with the saxophone, like drum tracks, world music or softer, rhythmic tracks. The other downside was the pool-it wasn't as clean as it should be. The resort has a narrow pool area as it is, so cleaner water and area surrounding the pool would definitely help. It didn't ruin the trip, but I expected a bit more.

It was clean and had nice views and decent amenities. The pool water was too warm for enjoyment, and there were a lot of what seemed high school groups, like it was a quiet party zone; it just takes a couple of obnoxious people to tick me off. They worked hard getting an old outdated hotel somewhat updated.

A reset for life!

We had the opportunity to stay in one of the condos. We soaked up the lavish life for four days and can't wait to get back. We have stayed at different resorts all over the world, and this is definitely in the top five. The pools, food, service, and golf course are amazing. I had stayed here for business before and didn't really have an opportunity to appreciate all that the resort has to offer. It is an amazing facility!

Wonderful stay at Mountain Shadows Resort. The resort is beautiful, pools are great and nice dining options as well. Well located and easy to drive or Uber to nearby locations. Gym which also offers different classes everyday which are worth a look. Took a yoga class one morning and highly recommend taking part of a class or two if possible. If you are an Expedia VIP ensure you get your perks. We had a voucher for drinks and had to mention it at check in.
