8.8/10 Excellent! (771 reviews)
I really liked our stay there. The rooms were very nice and clean. The front desk staff was wonderful and went above and beyond. The waitstaff in the restaurant and pool areas were also wonderful and extremely helpful. The morning bar staff was excellent as well. The night staff at the bar however were less than accommodating. I sat at the bar and had to wait 10 minutes before being waited on while the staff talked to each other. I then asked to cash out for my one drink and had to wait for 15 to 20 minutes, and the blonde girl that had been waiting on me was eating food instead of just cashing me out. We thoroughly enjoyed our overall experience. We just had that one bad experience but thought you should know that it wasn't great customer service.
