Fabulous property! The staff is superb - two maid
services per day and very attentive lobby &
activities employees. Excellent accommodations,
very luxe.
Both the first entrance and the lobby are enormous
and impressive. There is a Frank Lloyd Wright
inspired walkway between them (that architectural
method where the person goes from a small space
into a gigantic space). The first entry foyer is
very tall and dark, with enormous statues, with
drumming in the background. Then you walk through
this short (12 feet tall by 20 feet long?)
hallway. Then at the end of that little hall,
large glass doors swoosh "a la Star Trek" into a
hidden pocket on the side (not front or back like
at the bank or grocery store). and you enter into
an enormous, light, bright, billowing, stately lobby.
The restaurants are open. We ate at two of them,
one upstairs and one by the poolside. Food
presentation is lovely (I'm a former long-time-ago
restaurant reviewer). Lunch was about $45 - no
alcohol. They were offering a Meal Plan for $210
that covered 7 meals, including some dinners. It
was probably a good deal, but we ate in the room
sometimes and also out offsite (we rented a car
for the week, so took day trips to explore Totos
Santos, etc.).
The service was superior - everyone was very
pleasant and professional. There is twice daily
maid service, and they are very thorough. Our room
had a soaking pool on the balcony off the living
room.
The poolside activity schedule was full: bingo,
aqua aerobics, etc. Lots of people at the swim-up
bar during happy hour (4pm - 5pm). There is a
9-hole golf course next door. Looked lovely. I
think greens fees were $110, but guests get a 50%
price break.
