The pools were wonderful and the atmosphere was outstanding. A 1200 noon check out time would be more reasonable as most of the activities go until 2am

Better not want to take a shower and wash your hair as the hot water lasts less than 4 minutes and comes out in a trickle. We're guessing that each individual room has a 2 gallon water heater. Fluorescent bulb in the toilet room was so dim you couldn't find the same to pull the toilet paper off the roll. Sink in the room had such a dim light You could not see to put on makeup or shave. Lumpy saggy mattress. No linen changes no maid service. No worries we won't do this again.

We're sorry your stay didn't meet your expectations. Please let us know the room number where you stayed so we can check the water pressure since we didn't have any complaints at the front desk during your visit. Thank you.

Pay a Lot, get very Little!
Resort is small, but nice, clean, pretty. Room was great, as was pool areas. Food selection - fair. BUT- the place is Extremely over-priced. Charge for room was reasonable, but then there was the excessive facility charge-an add'l $150. During the day, I rarely saw any other hotel guests. At night, not many more. For a place that advertises itself as a fun place to gather, it lacks enthusiasm. This was my second visit in a few years. I thought this time I'd find more excitement, but not so. Next time, I'll visit the resort around the corner, where I've always found many friendly nudists, day or night. There you pay for the room and the whole outdoor country lake setting is included at no add'l charge

A/C worked as it should, Bed was comfortable, over all the room was great. Only drawback is you aren't able to bring outside food into your room. This normally wouldn't be an issue except we tried to eat at the bar and our order never showed up. After asking the bartender about the order, she said she would check on it. Half hour later, still no food, we finally settled up and went out to eat.

Hello Michael,I am sorry to hear that you might have misunderstood our hotel policies. Anyone staying in one of our hotel rooms is allowed to bring in outside beverage and food into their room with the exception of glass products and outside alcohol. Our kitchen staff works very hard to serve the amount of orders we get for food and unfortunately sometimes there is a mix up, I'm very sorry that this happened to you.

THE BAD: My room was only semi cleanISH. Dusty shelves, dirty floor under tv stand. (I dropped a pen and fished it out from underneath, and my hand came out filthy) There was toothpaste splatter in the sink and on the mirror. The 20 somethingish flatscreen tv was made by Element. Never heard of it. Don't bother...it only gets 18 channels, and 2 were just the DirecTv logo bouncing around. So no tv. Want to watch streaming channel on uour phone? Good luck. Their internet/wifi, when working was WEAK. I ran Speedtest, and got 1.99mbps down. The mirrors covering the room made me dizzy and nauseous at first. I though this was only a clothing optional resort. Nope. Do you want to order room service? Good luck. There is no phone in the room. Did you bring a laptop? Have fun with no desk to put it on. Single male like me that just wants to tan in the buff? Just know that on top of the room charge, you will pay 145$/day to see the oldest living people on the planet. (It's Florida, so take that as a given) Do you want to get a good night's sleep? Good luck. The music by the pool plays LOUDLY until 2AM. Bring earplugs if you like to go to bed at a decent hour. TINY ROOM. THE GOOD. The staff. All of them minus 1. Friendly and professional. Shout out to Kim for checking me in super fast a few hours early! The bartenders...WAY ABOVE PAR. Thanks guys! Lesson learned at a cost of almost 1000$ Never again.
