  • Sigh of Relief
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/15/09
    I booked through our timeshare for a week long "girl trip" with my sister and two childhood friends who are sisters. The week before our departure I started reading terrible reviews. The grounds are beautiful, check-in went smooth, but I was literally holding my breath as we opened the door to the room. We had a two bedroom deluxe ...

  • Get Location, Not Great Accomadations..
    By John, 09/05/09
    The first impression of the plantation was positive and the beautiful landscape and great atmosphere to start was nice. Check in was smooth and staff was extremely friendly and courteous. The luxurious accommodation as described in the brochure was a facade. The craftsmanship of the interior of our unit was terrible (no moldings to hide ...

  • Can you say Motel 6?
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/22/09
    Very disappointing. Thought we were getting classier room. Phone didn't work, charged for internet, pool too small for resort, 19 inch TVs, only took cash at resort dining and amenities, could tell you what the folks upstairs were talking about,dirty dishes at check in, dryer ran three times to get a load done, missing faceplate on electric plug, no shower in master suite, hot tub filthy. Need I say more?

  • Not on your worst enemy!
    By lynfrog, 08/17/09
    I arrive a day late due to flat tires on the way. When I walked into the room- the floors had jelly and kool-aide all over the carpet, the beds were not made, trash wasn't taken out, etc. So, I went back to the front desk and told them how disgusted I was. The next room was no better! The carpet doesn't meet the walls, the curtains are ...

  • More like Hell than resort
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/05/09
    nothing except location. Everything that the resort was itself responsible for was seriously lacking. Many problems with room. Obvious neglect of essential systems. GHETTO would be my word to describe this mess. Save yourself much agravation and STAY AWAY. Of course if you like a vaction full of hassles and problems with people telling you they are working on it until you leave, then this is the place for you!

  • Very nice
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/02/09
    Very spacious and tastefully decorated. At least one full-size mirror would have helped. Staff always courteous and helpful. Great pools but too crowded. Because of the amount of people who take advantage of this great resort, another pool would be helpful. The concept of an adults-only pool is brilliant. The kitchen was a real plus. It is ...

  • BEWARE
    By Fred, 06/19/09
    We stayed at this resort for five nights, if our condo was an example of what the rest are like--Stay Away. The carpet through out was dirty and old, we went to Walmart and bought flip flops to were inside. The tub/shower and vanity sealant had falled off or was falling off. The deck had almost all the paint peeled off. The up keep in this unit ...

  • Great value in the heart of everything!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/15/09
    Bought our vacation on ebay so we got an even better deal than what is usually offered. Had read the reviews and were skeptical. Didnt need to worry. Check in was fast, they did offer the time share tour which we declined- no pressure. We had a great two bedroom unit upstairs and the place was very clean and nicely decorated. Everything looked ...

  • we had a very nice stay
    I am surprised by the number of bad comments. My 2 units were clean and maintained. I could see that renovations are being made because there were new items in my units as well as older ones. While the older ones showed some wear they were by no means foul. My hot tub was clean and I had a little trouble regulating the temperature but the ...

  • 1/2 Resort is inhabitable
    By Sara, 05/21/09
    I wouldn't recommend this resort to my worst enemy. We were informed that half the resort has been remodeled but learned you receive such accommodations only upon agreeing to attend timeshare sales pitch sessions. This 2BR condo comes complete with outside deck covered in the thickest mold I've ever seen, broken doors/screens/locks, ...
