Star Island Resort and Club

Not a Fan

Very thin walls. Very noisy, and crowded. The place really needs to be updated. The bed was very close to the wall. No premium channels on the state of the art 720p plasma TV that couldn't be tilted or adjusted in any way and $200 deposit for incidentals? Really? I will not be coming back ever.

OK but

Location is excellent

Dated. Small double beds, tiny refrigerator, no ice available nearby

Not a good experience

It was relatively close to the parks and didn't cost a ton.

The first thing the staff did was try to get us to visit a time share meal. They acted very annoyed and dismissive when we declined. Our room was fine until we realized our toilet was leaking probably due to a faulty sealing at the base. The staff came the next day to fix it but left all the defiled and dirty towels used to clean and contain the issue in our room as a present for us. When the staff was notified of the remaining filthy towels they were unresponsive. Would not recommend the place.

Noise!

Location

They have Karaoke four nights per week. My building was probably 1/4 mile from the event. I could hear every singer while laying in bed even though I had ear plugs in. It lasts until midnight. If this would bother you stay away. I saw one review that said the place was quiet. It is on nights without karaoke.

The pool activities and the Karaoke were the most fun for our family to enjoy together. The facilities were clean, and the staff were courteous.

This was my second stay and I rated it as okay. After a long drive into town my room wasn't ready. My family and I had to sit around for over an hour and wait for our room to be available. We went to a presentation for a timeshare and the saleswoman was pushy, rude, and argumentative. We were locked out of our room at one point in our stay. And last but not least, I called for towels at 7 am, and they didn't come until 10. Super slow service. My first experience was great, the second one, not so good.

manager with no respect

the rooms where nice size. location is central to all events.

the elevator broke at 430 am and buzzed for 2 hrs out side my bedroom very loud. took staff foever to stop the noise. rooms are not sound proof you here everything. people waiting for elevator talking to the door opening and closing. I had a very poor nights sleep. Then the resort asked if we would be willing to tour facility and buy in to time share, out guide was very nice but the manager of time share division was very rude to us and cocky. I was interested in buying in to this resort till my run in with the manager. He was so rude.
