Overall a great stay. The Approach room didn't have a fridge which was a little inconvenient but there is a shared ice machine and microwave. The room was clean and quiet with a great view from the balcony. Restaurants were close by with excellent food. Would stay again.

Construction around the property. The parking lot was a patch of dirt. It felt raw. But enjoy the stay anyway!
Octavian, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was great having a room facing the mountain and a private hot tub away from the main area. Food was excellent at the restaurants and we enjoyed walking everywhere and taking the lift up to trails. Note: rooms on 5th floor require walking up two flights of stairs. Also bring a hair dryer and kettle if you want those amenities.

Nice and clean rooms. It will be better if they have a mini fridge
Catherine, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Not worth the location
The Approch is right off the hill, and this room seems like a deal…. Until it’s 2am and you can sleep from the T-Bar rave going on, and the hords of lifting tracking past your room screaming and yelling. Wouldn’t recommend if you want to sleep through the night.
Rae, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Rooms were way to hot, had no soup to wash you hands after using The facilities, Asked for soap to be delivered to the room, which never came. Room condition looked very beat up, even though it said on the website it had been renovated. Room was never serviced in our stay. Food out of the coffee shop below. It was cold when we ordered hot breakfast sandwiches. Food at the pub/TBar Was not great was not great. Food at the golf course though way better would recommend eating there. Attractions were good suggestion there would be offered two rides on the coaster instead of one. The swimming pool facility was great.
William, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Overall decent stay, and i would recommend. Keep in mind that it is an extremely basic stay marketed as a luxurious resort. The room lacked allot of really basic amenities (minimal furniture, no mini fridge, no housekeeping, no air conditioning, etc). I also wish they had disclosed that the pool was closed prior to our booking.
