We stayed in what was obviously the old part of the resort. The rooms were very tired. No shower door or curtain, every thing was well worn. Would be a great place for a kid friendly holiday, a bit noisy for me.

My friend and I were there for 10 nights. We had a wonderful time. From the moment we arrived to the time we left the staff was there to help us with everything we needed. The breakfast was plenty and we loved the fresh fruits.The location is excellent and the bus stops in front of the resort. Our room was ,spotless clean spacious and I will never forget the feeling to get up in the morning having my coffee in the balcony looking at the ocean,breathing fresh air. Thank you Edgewater

The property was well maintained and most of the staff were great , unfortunately on departing after everything had been paid for they informed me I'd been charged the wrong room rate and was charged an extra $203 for my stay which really wasn't my fault , tried discussing it with them but got nowhere so just paid the $203 ( but looking at my bank statement they charged me $211 ???). Will not be returning there, very disappointed

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Upon our arrival my partner and i checked in with the most warm welcome to the resort. Very friendly staff. Then we were greeted by the bell boy who assist to help with our luggage and prompted them in the golf cart whilst drove us to the building section (Mauke) where we resided for the week of our stay for our one year anniversary week. The bell boy dropped us off and we set upstairs to our room. We keyed into our room and my partner mentioned something about the peep hole but i ignored the matter because of an early wake up call at 3:30am to get everything ready henced an early flight - basically 17hrs no nap or sleep. LOL in regards to the peep hole it was broken, i finally noticed on the 2nd day. Smhl.
