I have been traveling to this resort for years and I realize it’s not their fault that they were struck by hurricane. My issue is that it wasn’t clearly stated when I booked that there was so many limitations and there was so much construction going on even though I called on several occasions to get my room cleaned, nobody ever came, not even to replaced towels. The amount of construction around the major areas to include the main pool was extremely inconvenient and rough to deal with. They really needs to be more notification of the current condition of the facilities.

Grew up at South Seas and the magic has not changed and it’s Gorgeous! Truly Wonderful Grounds that will be even more Beautiful after Construction! It’s is an absolute favorite place for us! But, paying almost a $1000 a night and a 250 deposit PER DAY! the standard needs to b higher …as far as the staff - but only checkin / front desk / cleaning and MAINTENANCE (biggest Fail) as ALL other staff (pool, beach trolley) were AMAZING- with positive great attitudes. Our beach villa had no internet - no working TV entire trip! Light bulbs not changed and no shelf holders in refrigerator. Reported many times and silence. No one ever followed up. Don’t you guys do a walk thru? Checkin :( hardly any info given including about golf carts! Or trolley schedule. - no staff at beach or pool knew the last trolley ran at 5pm (too early) and we have an 88 year old with us. So that made for a hassle first day big time. Very sad - ALL windows except balcony door covered in dirt and bugs for looks like years and most are broken and don’t open and are dangerous. This is not a hard fix but when it was brought up it was “oh it’s not our problem”. Unfortunately yes it is Do Better! With less Attitude! Construction drills start at 730am so be aware. We are so saddened with this very fixable and preventable situation but still luved to b there- If they can get that part together and an attitude adjustment with the Front desk and maybe a real life maintenance dept it will be TOP notch!

While we understand you are still getting things back to normal after the hurricane…the property near our rental was in terrible shape. They were rebuilding the deck/walkway to the beach and there were large areas missing boards which made our toddler trip and fall. The grounds around our unit were unkept; overgrown bushes, trash and debris scattered randomly throughout the property. The stairs and outside of the unit was in terrible shape as well. Just horrible all around for the price that you charge. Also, you should mention that the nice pool/club area is over a 5 minute drive from the units you rent! According to the pictures and description online, the beach club was on site near the rentals. We are highly disappointed in our stay.
