The rooms were dirty. Ask for wash clothes and never got any all week. It took forever to get a drink at the bar and at restaurants. Evening restaurants were good. But they would only reserve 3 nights at a time. So last night was by luck they found us a late night restaurant. Buffets were very bland. Never saw salt and pepper. No ice machine. So no sitting in room to make your own drink. If you are in a basic room(yellow arm bands) you were waited on dead last. They only gave us 3 towel cards for 5 people. Then when we check out told us were supposed to come back the 2nd day to get the other 2. Then because I didn't have the last 2 cards the wanted to charge me $20 because i didn't have them. And that's not everything. I will NEVER be back! And I will make sure and tell everyone not to go here.

This place is a joke, don’t ever go here. Their whole resort is very outdated with the exception of the ULC area. Seems like most of their focus is only to better the ULC. Second, the room the gave us was not cleaned and the washroom had a dirty tub with black grim and a broken toilet seat. Also worth noting is that their plugs were not working and I needed this to plug in a medical device. When I went to the concierge to complain they said I needed to fill out a report and that it could take the whole day to fix. I asked if there was another room available as I had just checked in and they said no which is highly unlikely due to the low season. We decided to stay and then got a service call on the last day asking if everything was good, I told them this is the worst resort I have ever been too and would never come back. The person that spoke to me said I would’ve given you a new room which was great if I wasn’t leaving the next day already. There is definitely a lack of supervision and the employees just do as they please. Example of this is at the pool buffet; all the staff just hide in the middle room and no one cleans the dishes and the place was absolutely trashed during lunch. I saw a whole plate of spill on the ground and no one cleaned for the hour I was in the restaurant, I also had to wait for plates for 30 mins. The Ala Cartes are no better, the service was slow and at Route 66 they sat us in a booth and I fell in through because the booth was broken. Not a 5 star!

I had an amazing stay at this resort for my 27th birthday with my friends. The staff were amazing especially Franklin who does entertainment near the pool and also KD the bartender at the lobby on the top bar, he made sure to cure any hangover and make every drink with love. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who is looking to enjoy. The only complain was how empty the club was and how a lot of the events were repeated.

I am writing to express my disappointment with my recent stay at your hotel. Upon arrival, we were given a room with a broken curtain, which we requested to be fixed five times, but it was never addressed, compromising our privacy. Additionally, the room lacked toilet paper, and it took over an hour for it to be delivered, causing significant inconvenience. Further issues included an exposed electrical outlet, which posed a safety risk to my 12-year-old child, and a blood stain on the sheets. Given these conditions, I am unable to understand how this hotel is rated as five stars. The overall service was poor, and our complaints were ignored. I have photographic evidence of these issues and request a refund due to the false advertising and the disappointing experience.

Lacking staff, dirty facilities, impossible to make restaurant reservations, food in buffet only 50 percent acceptable, room and sheets smell of mildew. At times could smell sewage in the dining hall. Misadvertisement of what is available at the resort, half of restaurants clised due to it not being high season. Very disappointed. Concierge services just try to sell you things, but provide misinformation otherwise. The concierge told us we qualified for a premium breakfast on one occasion and there was going to be a raffle in which we could participate if we wanted to, but it turned out when we showed up that we had to participate in presentation for vacation ownership to get the premium breakfast. The whole experience literally and figuratively left a bad taste in our mouth...
