I was not given the room that was shown to me in the online advertising. I really needed a microwave but there was not one in the room. I had to wait for 3-4 hours before a room was available. We were celebrating 58 yesrs if marriage and brought our meals already prepared. Just needed to warm up but had to eat out more than anticipated. We met others at the same resort that paid significantly less than we paid for more than we did! It was very disappointing. The continental breakfast was very good. The staff was apologetic and very courteous!

Emily made our stay unforgettable!

Our recent stay at the resort was nothing short of spectacular, and a significant part of our wonderful experience was due to the exceptional service provided by Emily. From the moment we arrived, Emily greeted us with a warm smile and genuine enthusiasm that set the tone for our entire stay.Emily’s professionalism, coupled with her friendly demeanor, truly enhanced our experience. She was always available to assist with any queries and offered personalized recommendations that made our vacation extra special. Her passion for her job and genuine care for guests were apparent and made a significant difference in our overall satisfaction. We are incredibly thankful to Emily for making our stay so memorable and are already looking forward to our next visit. Her dedication and outstanding service are true assets to the resort.

The pictures in the Expedia page are tricky they made you think that is a decent place to stay but it is not. Quick things I can say about my stay: Room lights didn’t work properly, the room had an intense smell of humidity, you have to request to get your room clean which they don’t tell you from the beginning, when they “cleaned” my room, they didn’t change the mattress covers so they just make it look clean and they charge you the service and cleaning fees which they don’t do it at totality. As I said from the pictures it looked a decent place to stay for a good prices but it wasn’t at all.

I’m not sure if it’s because we have dogs and that’s why they don’t keep up that area as much. The are as a whole was pretty, however the units where you stay because you have a pet is a little run down. I get it, they don’t want to pour money into it for it to get ruined by irresponsible pet owners. But they really don’t go out of their way for visitors with pets. We did enjoy our stay and the staff was very friendly. I just think they could do a little upkeep on the pet side. I definitely would stay again and would recommend to anyone who has a pet. Lots to do around this resort. The price is very reasonable. Check in was a breeze and check out was even simpler.

The property is definitely not “Lakefront”, it’s views are overlooking a retention pond with a broken down fence in front of it, I called the resort a few days before and was told I could do early check in but when I got to the resort they refused to allow the early check in and was rude about it. The hotel was not in a good area; the room was ok but there were no trash cans, and no rags. When I tried to take a shower the stopper for the tub would not go fully into the shower mode so I ended up having to lay down and put my head under the faucet part of the tub to rinse my hair. Also, it needs to be noted on somewhere here that the hotel charges a $50 deposit and no certain time frame for when it will be put back on my card; one person says 1-2 days and another says 4-5 days I’m not usually one to complain but the pictures are not accurate and while not the most posh or expensive hotel I could have picked for my anniversary, I will definitely not be staying here again.

Our first impression at this resort was nothing short of exceptional, thanks in large part to the incredible Emily, a true Godsend who seemed to work tirelessly across every department. From the moment she appeared, the entire lobby was transformed by her radiant, peaceful, and utterly contagious energy. Emily’s humility shone through as she selflessly served a less fortunate guest with genuine acts of kindness, while also handling the more opinionated guests with remarkable grace and compassion. Her presence alone was a catalyst for joy turning around everyone’s attitude in an instant. Even the staff couldn’t help but light up, their faces beaming with smiles the moment she arrived. It was like watching a complete 180-degree shift in the atmosphere, all thanks to her. I rarely feel compelled to leave reviews, but Emily’s impact was so profound that I couldn’t let it go unrecognized. My friend and I are already planning our return she’ll be back every month for 9 days, and as long as Emily is there, you can bet we’ll be there too. Thank you, Emily, for making our experience unforgettable!

There was a shuttle to Universal that leaves before breakfast is available. If they can’t make a hot breakfast available, there should at least be a cold bar for something quick. Coffee should always be available in the lobby.

This was the filthiest hotel I have EVER been to. We arrived at 230am after traveling all day from Alberta. We got sent to one room and when we walked in all we could smell was dampness. The room was not made up after the previous guests left, so I called.the front desk and they moved us to another room. When we got to the second room, you had to physically slam.the door to get it to open and it also had to be pulled or pushed very hard to cloae it. Inside the room was very stained carpet,a bathroom sink that was so full of cigarette butts and hair, that it all came up when you brushed your teeth. The tv did not work, the wifi did not work and the phone did not work. I woke up with bumps all over my body. The pool was full of sand and garbage. The "complimentary" breakfast consisted of hard boiled eggs and bread. The toaster didn't even work. After one night of 5, we decided we couldn't handle it anymore and when we talked to the manager, he offered to put us in another room but admitted it wouldn't be any better. He gave us a refund for 3 nights and said for the extra costs would have to go through Expedia. He said Expedia could call on Monday and talk to the head manager Estelle. Expedia promised tbey would.help me but after one day of not being able to reach Estelle, they gavd up and said they couldn't help me.

It’s the most horrible place to be in, mold, broken toilet seats, broken drawers and mold all over the closet with doors you can’t even open. Very unprofessional and unfriendly staff. The smell is horrible in the room. I was told when I checked in, this is the only room we have and we are very short on staff so don’t call us if you don’t like the room. We don’t have anything else to offer you. Never again and I will not recommend this place even if it’s the last place. I would rather sleep on the street than a room in that filthy place.

The pool was nice and clear, didn’t smell overly chlorinated. The deck chairs are sun baked and breaking apart. The rooms for sure are very dated and could use updating. The sink in the room looked like someone hawked a loogie into it and it never left, just solidified there. The ceiling in the shower was peeling and dropping lil bits in the shower and on the floor. Not super clean, base boards and carpet had dirt and stains on them. The key to our door had to be remade 4 times. First one did not work right off the bat. Second one, we were at the pool, went back to the room, didn’t work , walked back to the office got a new one it worked… same thing happened again. Speaking of the door, it was all mangled and looked like at some point someone tried to break in.. the lady at the desk did help but had a very poor attitude about every interaction. Check in, problem with the key anything you went up there for, she was less than thrilled to help. The lady that was there at check out was nicer. Overall the words I would use is update and clean. Not the most god awful but wished it was better. You get what you pay for and lesson learned.

Needs TLC

The room had roaches. The phone to the front desk wasn’t connected to the wall or the receiver. Tried to take a shower the water was cold. Staff was nice and understood why I wanted my money back. They said… I would receive my refund within five days . So I hope they honor their word. It’s a shame the place could be nice if it had TLC…
