This place was exactly as listed! Beautiful views, easy to get to and close to main attractions. The rental was stocked with everything we needed, and then some. It was also very clean and comfortable. The pool and hot tub were clean as well. I was a little nervous about the elevator situation since we were on the top floor but we didn’t have any issues at all. The only downside was the parking garage, it was VERY tight (as people mentioned in other reviews) but it was manageable. We had a wonderful time and would definitely stay again.

This resort is absolutely horrible. The room itself was okay. Wish the AC would have worked better. Never went below 74. The shower dripped all night. The curtains had stains all over them. The resort. Trash. The wait times for elevators are ridiculous. Go have dinner at 2 to avoid the 4:00 check in people. The parking garage is very tight. Thankful for the yellow parking on the very top if you have a truck or SUV. We stayed during the tropical storm so I was expecting some inconvenience but seeing security kick the elderly ladies out of chairs did not put a good taste in my mouth. The day before had higher wind and they allowed people to sit in the chairs that day. Security is very rude. Also beware their cameras see everything on the balcony. High definition! We have stayed in multiple condos and this was the far worst experience. Kids pulling the fire alarm at 5:30 in the morning was the tipping point. I think the resort is just too big and they didn’t accommodate for the crowd. Host was very quick to help with the glass table that broke due to high winds and had it cleaned up fast. I was nervous the wind blowing glass over the balcony. That could have been bad.

The facility was very clean, pretty, luxurious. However, for a family, I would not recommend it. There was a lot of people smoking weed, foul music being played, lots of drunk people, not very nice to have as a family. If that’s your desire, then it’s perfect. We didn’t like it with our children.

Ben, we do apologize for the HOA rules regarding the pool rules. Unfortunately, we do not have control over that. The parking and elevators are also out of our control. We do apologize for any issues with the check-in process.
