They should inform their costumers that you will be charged for missing room keys. 300 pesos per card key. Not enough dining options, no convenience store to buy stuff.

Hardly a 5 * hotel It may of been once upon a time but now more like 3/4 * The property is in urgent need of a renovation Pools had tiles broken and missing The beach was not maintained to any extent Overall the property is not inviting Almost all paintwork is rusting or very faded The casino isn’t on site it’s a transfer bus ride away Must say the restaurants were nice. Great food and great staff

The staff at the restaurant look so tired, The service was so slow, the drinks we order took 35 mins, we have to follow it up. They served the food one oder after the other! My sister’s food was missed! We were half way eating our food when we called their attention, that’s when we’ve learned it wasn’t included.

Nice venue, good views of sunset, the property is run down and falling apart, elevator did not work. The food is more like cafeteria food not classy or even decent. The pools were big but tile falling apart my son cut his feet so not safe at all. The aircon was good, coffee and bakery was good (Deli Shop). The staff was all nice and pleasant. Will not be going back due to poor property conditions!!

Great staff. Accommodating and respectful. They also suffered the effects of the pandemic so do not expect amenity perfection. It’s a great place to rest when road tripping in between province to city. Safe. They try their best and that’s all that matters.

Hotel surroundings were good, but the hotel overall was not worth the price for the ff. reasons: no beach area/dirty and not swimmable, room was spacious but subpar and amenities not well thought-out, e.g., showers had tile flooring and door not properly installed, room lighting was tricky. Check-in/out process not smooth. Stairs going up to 2nd floor too hard for seniors or people with disabilities. Why no elevator?

Expensive resort that has seen better days
The hotel is tired. Soft beds, No international power point in rooms, No room service information or anything to help in rooms with hotel info. No mini bar, A lovely pool near the beach but limited shade. No shade on beach in terms of umbrellas.thumping music at 6:30am at breakfast. Highlight was paying for a adapter so I could use my laptop and then when returning it being told I hadn’t paid a deposit for it even though I handed paperwork to them? Very expensive for a poor experience.

We stayed in a two-bedroom villa. I stayed for one day just for the experience coz i see a lot of photos of people that have been there. The rooms were neat, it was really beautiful. The pools by the sea were amazing. The place is good. But the villas we reserved was kinda far from the main amenities so we either had to take the shuttle or use our car to have breakfast. Breakfast buffet is great. BUT BUT and but i felt I didn’t get my money’s worth with this stay. When we arrived there i noticed some sand on the floor. I thought, maybe, they were not able to vacuum the floor real good. I didn’t want to think the villa was not cleaned before we occupied it. But i looked around and saw windows are too dusty. My baby kept on going under the curtain playing and started sneezing. Maybe they should periodically check behind the curtains. I didn’t take a shower until the next day only to find some LONG hair that were in the shower drain, so disgusting!!!!We have not used the shower only the bath tub after we went swimming so no one used the shower plus my husband’s hair is short! I paid 450$/day for the dirty bathroom???!!! I will never check in to Thunderbird anymore again. Maybe they didn’t clean the toilet too? I couldn't tell anymore coz my husband used it once we got to the hotel. So im pretty much disappointed overall. With this hotel price, there should be no excuse for not being able to sweep the floor, or clean the bathroom my golly!!!

Checked in and room was not ready. No towels in the bathroom. I was charged additional 3600 pesos ( about $75) for 2 additional persons because they said room was reserved for 2 only but my reservation was good for 4 persons. I hated when they have hidden charges and you have to pay upon check in.

Money is not worthy to stay here. Too expensive compare to other international hotel. You need to buy ice, water, no laundry bag available, you still need to ask. No microwave. Maintenance and cleanliness is not good. The price is x3 to other nearby hotel. But pool is good.

For the cost that the resort charges, the facilities and the services were substandard. Total RIP OFF. A resort hotel that does not have enough poolside towels is absurd, but this was exactly what we experienced in this resort. No towels. The surroundings of the pool areas were dirty. The bathrooms were stained/dirty and smelly. The bathrooms in the 2 bedroom villas we stayed in were dingy. There were not enough towels and bath supplies. The lawn was essentially dirt as the plants were either dead or dying.

We were forced to get a 2-bedroom villa because we drove 6 hours and security wouldn't let us in because the place is "at maximum capacity." We came for the day tour which we confirmed with the staff over the phone the previous day. The security guard asked "who did you speak with?" As if questioning if I was telling the truth which was very annoying. Wouldnt even let us in to go to the front desk. Good think there was a villa available on expedia due to a last minute cancellation. Once we told him we went ahead and booked a villa, he then proceeded to ask for "proof." This should be done at the front desk not at the parking lot where security stops everyone. And guess what, this "maximum capacity" hotel's pools were empty. We were the only ones there yet they wouldnt let us in. Pools had no proper stairs. The tiles were broken. Lot of broken trees. No beach access because of the storm according to staff which they should lower the price. Paid 25 grand for 2 mediocre pools. Airconditioning in the rooms suck. Asked for a fan and they wouldnt provide one. They kept sending engineering which i asked them not to because my boyfriend was already sleeping. They still went in, woke my bf up and cleaned the a/c filter at 1am. I don't see why the staff think theyre high and mighty. Place was nothing special.

Maintenance Issue
The resort looks very nice, so it's perfect for picture taking. The staff are attentive & friendly. The hotel room where I stayed is comfortable, but the bathroom is not clean. There are molds on the tiles, and the faucets have grimes. Outside, the infinity pool is inviting. However, when I stepped into the swimming pool, I felt the slippery tiles and saw how dirty it was. Clearly, the resort is not well maintained, and cleanliness is a major issue.
