“A wonderful stay at this beautiful property!”

Aug 07, 2025donnajimmynieb

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property! The view is stunning! The rooms are lovely, ours had a beautiful view with a gas fireplace on our balcony. Service was outstanding all around, but a special thank you to Arry at the front desk, Rose and Lynn at the pool, Rose and Joshua at 180blu, Mary at Raya, Hue at the Raya bar, Larry and Sommer and Vishal at Kahani, all of housekeeping, the bellmen, and the wonderful ladies that work at the coffee shop! Thanks for an amazing vacation!

“Damaged car”

Aug 01, 2025Shawn G

Absolute joke the valet damaged my Range Rover and now mysteriously the cameras were not working that day. I will NEVER stay at this place. A bunch of liars that won’t own up to it!!! Might be done staying at Marriotts forever. Apparently they think this is about me paying for a 500 deductible.
