Disappointing Experience at Lifestyle Tropical Beach Resort & Spa All Inclusive
The food was mediocre, restaurant availability was extremely limited, and the disappointing buffet became our primary dining option. Speaking with staff found out members received access to higher-tier dining options, leaving non-member guests with limited choices.
Our “concierge” regularly looked for us and stated that he was required to give us a property tour to show us the locations of the restaurants and give us a gift. He took us to a nice building and quickly handed us over to a salesman who kept us for 90 minutes. We declined the liquor offered and repeatedly stated that we would not buy. We were shown a brand-new, HUGE villa. During our stay, I personally saw the villa occupied by family members who have been members for more than 20 years. It was significantly smaller, older, and very dated compared with the villa we were shown.
They offered us nicer accommodations and better dining options that day if we became members. That left us wondering why those accommodations and dining options were being offered as an incentive to purchase a membership rather than being offered from the beginning.
Between the limited dining, the difference between our room and an upgraded room, the villa we were shown versus the villa I personally observed, and the persistent sales tactics, this was not the relaxing vacation we expected. Would not visit again.
