AMAZING,AMAZING,AMAZING!!!
Margaritaville was TRULY a paradise!! This property was amazing! I highly recommend it! From the service, food and everything in between the whole experience was top tier! This will be a repeat location for me for sure!!!
Great location. Bad Smell.
The villas are spacious. The resort is located by what I feel is the best beach on the island in Coki Beach.. Very close to the ferry if you plan on taking a day trip to St John’s. The only and major issue is the smell. The sargassum is unbearable. Other beaches had seaweed but this smell was insane
Disappointing
Staying here was a disappointing experience. They tell you that the seaweed is a problem, but they don't tell you that the entire resort smells disgusting because of it. There were cracked floors and rusted fixtures both in my room and around the resort. The pools opened at 8am, but there were no pool towels available until 10am or later. The service was average, at best. I had mobility issues and had to repeatedly call for a golf cart and had long waits. I do not recommend and won't be back.
Best value and location with awesome staff
Location and room size- plus Staff was awesome
Cons Seaweed but they can’t help that
Unbearable seaweed smell
The smell of seaweed was unbearable! We actually tried to switch Wyndham properties because it was that unpleasant. We stayed two weeks and though the staff is all great, I think they know that the seaweed really hurts the resort. We had a car and went all over the island, for some reason, the smell was only bad at this resort. The resort needs to clean it up daily during the seaweed season. The restaurant was at the waters edge and just reeked of the smell. The room was ok and good size but you couldn’t open the patio door because of that smell. The rooftop pool bar was our only escape because it was high enough to get away from the smell. All the rooms are up the hillside. So you have to take golf cart rides from staff to get to your room, which can lead to lines waiting at times. Even the locals we interacted with said they hold their nose when driving by this resort.
Nice presentation
We had a great time! We went to a time share meeting, and although it is not something that works for us, we had a great meeting with Christie. If you are looking into this as an option, she did a wonderful job explaining the process and she was kind, informative, and easy to meet with!
