The beach here was outstanding...amazing shelling as well! The rooms are looking a little tired, and there really isn't much to do. Travelling with a teen he found himself quite bored. The arcade is a nice amenity, however, it'll cost you. You burn through the arcade cards at a rapid pace. I was quite irked too as we purchased an arcade card for a heftier amount to last us the few days we were there, only to be turned away our last day because of a private event. There was signage around the hotel the arcade would reopen at 9pm, but we were turned away and told to come back at 10pm. We went back at 10:15 and were told we had to leave because it was closed for the function for the rest of the night. I explained it was our last night and we still had funds remaining on our arcade card, but the manager did nothing for us even when I asked if our remaining funds could be refunded. This left a very bad taste in my mouth considering it was the only form of entertainment available for my son. Additionally, be prepared to budget for parking. There aren't any options available other than through the hotel, so even self-parking will set you back US$35 per day (almost CDN$50 which is pretty steep). Overall, a great option if you're looking for a romantic weekend away or if you're planning a baby moon, but given the lack of things to do, I wouldn't bring teens or stay longer than a few days.

Don’t fall asleep after ordering room service
It expensive. Knew it would be but still some sticker shock. Ordered room service and fell asleep. Our fault. We woke to them dropping off the order while we were asleep in bed. Like they let themselves in the room, dropped the food and left. Thought they would leave it outside the door. Just creepy.

Stayed while attending a conference. First time I have stayed at a JW Marriott Hotel. Not particularly impressed. Staff at front desk were accommodating and helpful, thank you. The food for the conference was good. Lots of salad and ran out of beef often creating a bottleneck. Chose fish option (was delicious, grouper, mahi, and tilapia) but inconvenient. Room was ok, average at best. Tired, facilities needs to improve the room conditions. There were many minor but obvious improvements needed in room, especially trim and moldings. As a professional contractor, I couldn’t help but notice the poorly installed moldings, trims,and baseboards. Food in restaurants was expensive and ok, as well as the service. The hotel is in the middle of nowhere. If you need anything, be prepared to order from Instacart. No store on the property. Needed distilled water for my CPAP. Had to order from Walmart and get delivery. I have stayed in many hotels in my life, all over the world. This is a 2 start hotel that is tired. With the amount of money they charge and nitpicking charges for everything they do, it has the potential to be the luxury hotel it claims to be. Take some time to inspect the property and DO NOT overlook the most minor details as they are what really count. Next time, I will stay elsewhere. My apologies to anyone offended by this review. It is honest and I hope it helps and makes a difference.

Somewhat Disappointing
I don’t often write reviews, especially negative ones, but I want to give a warning. Do not go to this resort and expect a luxury experience, or one akin to other JW Marriott’s, on a holiday week. Perhaps due to the fact that it was the week of Thanksgiving, but the resort was 90% families with young kids and the customer service was overwhelmed/inconsistent at best. I love kids and expected it would be family friendly; we left our kids at home to have a few relaxing days away at a luxury resort. But it felt like we were at a Disneyworld hotel. I got plowed over by kids, awaken by screaming babies, and hit with balls from kids playing catch. The pool was unswimmable— it was impossible to find a corner you wouldn’t be splashed or kicked. If you didn’t get to the pool at 7 am and line up, you didn’t get a chair. Families were claiming them and not giving them up all day. Cabanas cost $500 to rent which wasn’t feasible. The beach was similar. I’m pregnant and just wanted to relax in a pool. At one point I felt close to tears that we spent all this money and couldn’t find a peaceful corner of luxury at the whole resort. We had poor service at all of the restaurants we went to on property— Quinns, Maia, and Tesoro (particularly bad). The valet was chaotic and check-in was a disaster. Whenever we were expressed our concerns we were just told “sorry.” We did have good spa services but the spa pool was freezing and there was nearby construction. The room was a bit run-down too.
