8/10 Good
"It was a surprise to find out that this property is not all inclusive; but rather a $200 charge daily to cover whatever you use and refund what you don’t. We stayed at One Particular Harbor across the street from Margaritaville which apparently is not all inclusive- still a part of Margaritaville, but not the all inclusive aspect that it advertised. Then the poolside bar “charge to room” feature was not working.. so paid MORE out of pocket. I was really disappointed about this. The good parts!.. The view on the water is awesome. The location is great. The rooms are clean and comfy. They offer you margaritas upon check in. The breakfast restaurant on site was great and has delicious sandwiches… we got one pretty much everyday. The waterpark is fun, but be careful going down the dark slide on your butt- you will slam into all the walls! They offer taxi pick up on site and have really fun excursions. Pearl island is a hidden gem and Atlantis is a must do. The staff were helpful and nice. We did a couples massage at the spa which was really nice- highly recommend. Hope this helps someone!"
