This was my first time here, I had read reviews on another site that were pretty positive so my partner and I decided to spend our weekend here. Big mistake. When so got into our room the first thing we noticed was the smell which luckily we were able to fix by turning on the AC. We then noticed the... More

We wont be staying again, due to some activity that we observed in the pool, we are a straight couple, that goes with our gay... More

The pool and bar areas are nice.The restaurant looks good.Its a friendly crowd. Mostly locals.I would not try to stay there. The place is rundown. The rooms are old, and worn.Bathrooms are small. The air conditioner is very loud. There are unshady characters there. Not sure if hustlers, or dug dealers. Probably both.There is some cruising going on in the... More

The website and ads are totally different than what this place really look like. They want a deposit of $100 when you check in then they proceed to tell you no smoking in the room and if they smell that you have they keep it. THE ROOM SMELLED LIKE AN ASHTRAY. Of course I let the front desk person know.... More

We chose to stay during St Pet Pride 2012 and proved to be a great exoerience. Comfortable but basic rooms but onsite shops, restaurant and clubs were great. Nice pool and staff was helpful. Loved the 70's/80's music in the dance club on Saturday. Great band by the pool and drag shows too. Lots of fun and no need to... More

The rooms need updating, and the staff need to pay more attention to their PAYING guests. Calling ths place a resort is a bit of a stretch. Carpet filthy, linens cheap, and bathroom grotty. At $140 a night (Pride Weekend)they need to lift their game, , It is the busiest time, but most of the staff were pretty unprofessional and... More

I don't care what "953traveler" said, my cost for the memorial day weekend was $399.00 for stinky room with nasty carpet, a piece of sheet that was tucked on the bed with holes and no chance of being able to take my own drinks or food to the pool area. Also, several people that were quoted $59 a night arrived... More
