Just thought I would give my opinion of our two night stay at Floridays Resort. This is ranked No. 1 on another review website. The staff were very very friendly upon arrival , we did receive our request for a two bedroom unit on the top floor. These are basic condo units that are certainly showing their wear and tear,out dated furnishings ,tv's If someone was expecting a hotel room, I can understand why they would be somewhat impressed by the units. The negatives : this is not a gated community, when traveling with children for an extended period, this is a must.The patio and door were not screened on our unit so we could not leave the door open. The toilet ran our first night until I finally got up and turned it off. The shower was probably one of the worst that I have used in all my travels. The bath fans rattled and banged so that they could not be used. The first morning I wanted to bring this to the cleaning staff's attention but they were arguing with each other so I didn't think it was the best time to bring this up. Our second night although I understand the resort has no control over this, it was non stop running, yelling, slamming doors until late in the evening. At approximately 1:30 am a group attempted to enter the smaller pool next to our building, an argument started and there were no security from the resort to intervene.The last morning the hair dryer in the kids bath room began to smoke, I unplugged it and left a note.
Floridays resort is in a very good location. They do have one large child friendly pool but after 9am forget about finding seats or loungers. They also charge a daily resort fee that is clearly stated upon booking so expect this on your bill. In my opinion there are far superior gated facilities in the immediate area that offer superior accommodations for around the same price. By the reviews of this resort,(that do not reflect our stay) it appears many have not had the opportunity to experience these facilities.
