FIVE
STARS
FOR
RESORT
-
ONE
STAR
FOR
GROUP
BOOKINGS
–
I
would
rate
the
quality
of
the
rooms,
value,
amenities,
restaurant,
bar,
and
staff
for
Ocean’s
Edge
at
5
stars,
hands
down.
However,
we
had
a
less-than-stellar
experience
in
trying
to
book
a
block
of
rooms
for
a
moderately-sized
group.
We
initially
worked
with
Alicia,
the
conference
services
manager,
to
try
to
book
a
block
of
rooms.
After
talking
with
her
on
the
phone,
we
did
not
receive
any
follow-up.
We
waited
one
week
before
reaching
back
out
and
she
stated
that
she
“forgot”
and
would
send
us
the
information
right
away.
After
another
week
of
waiting
without
any
follow-up
(so
now
two
weeks
from
our
initial
contact),
we
simply
booked
individual
rooms
for
the
entire
group
ourselves.
We
never
received
any
follow-up
regarding
our
initial
request
to
book
a
block
of
rooms.
Later,
in
talking
with
others
at
the
hotel
front
desk,
it
sounds
like
the
rate
that
we
got
by
booking
rooms
individually
was
probably
better
than
the
group
rate
anyways.
Despite
our
negative
experience
with
trying
to
book
a
block
of
rooms
in
the
beginning,
overall,
we
had
an
exceptional
stay
and
wanted
to
thank
two
individuals
in
particular
–
Claudia,
the
front
office
manager,
and
Thea
who
worked
at
the
front
desk,
both
of
whom
went
above
and
beyond
for
us
and
our
guests.
We
really
couldn’t
thank
them
enough
for
making
this
such
a
great
stay
for
everyone.
We
did
see
other
reviews
mentioning
issues
with
air
conditioning.
Our
room
did
have
some
issues,
although
there
were
HVAC
professionals
working
on
the
unit
during
our
stay,
however
none
of
our
guests
had
any
issues
with
their
rooms,
so
this
may
be
something
that
was
in
the
process
of
being
repaired
across
the
resort.
Overall,
we
had
a
fantastic
time
and
look
forward
to
saying
here
in
the
future.
