No warm welcome - just a cash grab of fees

Roberta G (Auckland) on Jan 18, 2025

We booked a king bedded room on line as originally it was just going go be my husband and I. About a week before I changed the reservation to 2 queen beds as our son would be joining us - no mention by r...eservation staff about new fees and charges. We arrived at 8:30am aware that we had not pre registered so we most likely would have to wait. The front desk associate berated us for arriving early and said she could waive the early check in fee. We are frequent international travelers and have never heard of this - you take your chances - the room is either ready or you wait Next we were advised we would have to pay an extra person fee of $155 per day plus an additional $42 resort fee (even though it is included in the rate) This was our second visit - no welcome back by front desk - it felt like an egregious cash grab/ It is a beautiful hotel but standards don't match their luxury branding~bathroom towels are thin and worn - after paying for beach chairs one of my towels was ripped. Housekeepers were lovely (the hardest working people in the hotel), Mai Tai Bar and coffee bar staff amazing Sadly front desk couldn't do the basics like welcoming us back

Dated rooms

Nice hotel overall. 5 star gardens but 4 star rooms, the room which I reserved for five days at Christmas looked very tired. By the way, the hotel charges $100 a day for the hire of an umbrella and two sun... loungers on the beach and some people do pay it.
