3-night trip

2/10

Not disclosed that most amenities were closed off & under construction. Place is lit like a hospital. Staff spoke like robots. This place feels like its lying to itself. The private beach is the size of my living room. Got here and immediately booked another hotel. It was so awful it was funny. Like im not even mad, I got a good laugh out of it
2-night trip

First time here. Wonderful place, with great amenities. Will definitely be back to stay again.
2-night trip

I would stay here again. Planning my next years trip.
4-night trip

4/10

The property is undergoing a renovation and change of ownership/management (Hilton purchased the Bluegreen Property). Very unfortunately, none of that was disclosed on the Expedia listing for the property. There was 1 small pool, not 3 as listed on Expedia. 1 restaurant, w/ a small bar; 3 bars/lounges were listed. No poolside bar, as listed. On the last night of our stay, we had to be moved to another room due to construction issues. I was charged a $137 facilities fee which is laughable as the facilities were so limited!
4-night trip

4/10

Lied to all the way
2-night trip

2/10

Outdoor beach area closed under renovations so were 2 of 3 restaurants. Mini golf closed, tv would not connect. Drilling and hammering all day from 8-5 with all the construction work in progress under balcony. Filed complaint as website says “some “ amenities were not available instead of all
3-night trip

10/10

It was very nice and so relaxing.
2-night trip

10/10

It was the best location for our family to really rest and relax. There were so many options of things for us to do. We will be going back!
3-night trip

4/10

Construction going on. Advertised 3 pools only 1 open for a large complex of hotel and time share guests. Paid for ocean view and could only see the water when standing in front of the slider and looking right, also door opens to a balcony that’s standing only. The room that’s advertised for ocean view with balcony wasn’t even at this hotel as far as we could see. Hallways, elevators dirty and dated. Rooms are dated as well.

10/10

It was extremely spacious and clean. Very very convenient to all attractions!
