Negative Reviews
negative:
A Timeshare Property
Upon arrival, you will be ushered to the concierge desk for a welcome gift. If you are not interested in owning a timeshare, it is in your best interest to bypass this gift. As with the reputation of timeshares, you will be pressured into sitting through a sales pitch with the offer of free gifts. Constant phone calls are probable.
negative:
Outdated Units Need TLC
Units are dated and starting to show lots of wear and tear. Carpets need cleaning or replacing, furniture needs to be replaced, and bathrooms are small. Housekeeping service is not offered until you have stayed eight days, so be sure and make proper arrangements for trash and laundry.
negative:
Slow Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi is part of the daily resort fee you will pay. The connection is very slow and you will find yourself constantly logging back in.
