Door to room was damaged. TV/WIFI did not work. No means of obtaining food or beverages on the property. Bathroom toilet seat pitted and rusty looking. No shower head in shower. Electical sockets damaged; half of them didn't work. The whole place was run down; in disrepair. Next time will stay at the HOTEL GRAND A VIEW, across the street.

My best

Let's start with the greeting. Don't want to mention that the airlines lost my luggage but it is what it is. Chris and Face helped me to obtain clothes and toiletries due to the fact i had nothing. They made me feel safe and comfortable. The rating chart is too low if i could i wold give them 10 stars. This nice quiet family owned resort is kind and compassionate They make you feel like you're apart of their family. Thabk you for you kindness.

Terrible stay away!!!!!

I did not stay longer than 10min. I got sick from the strong chemicals used to cover dust, wetness and moldy smell. I was symptomatic after 5min. I visited 2 rooms and none was accommodating. I ask for a refund immediately as advertisement is misleading and inaccurate but both hotlel.com and big apple denied me a refund. Terrible service on big sides. Also they said I request honeymoon sweet and that was inaccurate.

Big Apple is Bad news Dirty,Mosquitoes eat you alive No WiFi they will lie about the WiFi NO FOOD, I mean no food at all. Totally rundown, no glass in the window to my room. Toilet does not work, no water in the face basin Dangerously exposed electrical cables Broken smoke alarm No shower head on shower Lots of mess in the pool They promised free shuttle to the airport but the driver will still charge you $3000 when dropped off although the fair is $2000 on chartered taxi and $150 on route taxis. You won’t see professionally looking staff just two men smoking mariwana. SOMEONE TRIED TO ENTER MY ROOM AT 2AM THANKFULLY MY DOOR WAS LOCKED. I didn’t sleep after that The decision is your but you’ve been warned.
