It has a lot of opportunity but a lot of room to improve. Took 27 minutes from the time I got in line until my check-in was completed. They did not have enough help for a busy Saturday afternoon checking people in. Also,when sitting at either of the the bars that we went to, no one seemed to be able to change a channel on the TVs without calling a manager. This just shouldn’t be that hard.

I liked there were things the kids could do. The AC in both rooms we rented didn’t work so it was very hot. The restaurants were very expensive and I have had better eggs at McDonald’s and that’s saying a lot. We were the only people in the JB’s Boathouse restaurant and we order appetizers took almost an hour to get them.

Unfortunately, our stay at Margaritaville was an experience of loud music and no TV to drown it out. Apparently the television service was out for the entire property and had been out for 24hrs before we even checked in. At no time was this communicated to us before or during check in. As my friend and I had planned for dinner and drinks followed by watching movies in our beds as a relaxing evening out, this was a huge disappointment. To add to that, there was a live band playing above our room in one of the ballrooms. We did not have the luxury of drowning the noise out with the television. The property has been rehabbed from what was once TanTara resort, but parts of it were still pretty dated considering the price point. All in all, will not recommend to others.

I did not like that. It was limited to spots week ago because most of it wasn’t open or close very early and the walls in the hotel were very thin where you could hear in the other room as far as parking wasn’t inconvenience because if you stayed on a certain side, depending on where it was not enough parking and you had to walk far to get to your room. It was a overrated experience, especially when other people told me they went and describe this place as being awesome and I also did not like you did not have a microwave in the room and if you want one, you have to pay $10 extra a night to have a microwave in your room.
