Your front desk staff is badly trained and dont have a clue what is going on in the hotel booking system. This includes your front desk manager as even she did not know which rooms are available and which is not. the excuse was. We dont know which rooms are cancelled and which are not. That tells me they dont have access or they dont care or they dont want to do the effort. So I was told the hotel is fully booked. Then when I showed them on line it is not and that I can book a room, then all of a sudden there was a room available

Loved it

What a wonderful experience! Would highly recommend. Staff at the Hotel were amazingly friendly and professional. From Reception to room service to breakfast staff just outstanding!! The Auqua Dome was VERY disappointing. The staff open when they want to. Literally an hour after the board signs says and online times. The only slide is not always open as the life guard wants to chat to his friends so closes and opens at random. If you ask him to use the slide he will tell you in 20 minutes.

Loads of potential

I would say the hotel is satisfactory and in definite need of an upgrade. The bedding and bed were awesome but the walls, decor, furniture all need updating. The aircon is loud and noisy and the hotel should perhaps in solar etc. as the aircon does not work when there is load shedding. A lot of the TV channels did not have sound, and the shower door did not close. I think for the price you pay, you can expect more. Thanks

Emerald Resort Units need a few more basic items

The accommodation should atleast cater for a place to hang wet washing since the Aquadome is one of the main features Also just basic items in the unit, there is no broom or mop so after housekeeping cleans if the place gets dirty, you dont have anything to clean up with. Water from shower comes out right till the kitchen floor and nothing available to mop it
