The property is amazing and clean. A great location with golf cart shuttle just perfect. However, the staff (front desk) is terrible especially one of the supervisors was just awful and rude.

We had a lot of issues changing our reservation from a three night to a two night even though we are within the contracted time allowance to make changes. I spent several hours on the phone and 4 days with Expedia support and the riding Academy before I could get it straightened out. It was very frustrating.

The hotel is beautiful however my room had ants in the bathroom and shower area. I immediately contacted the front desk upon check in and they said they would send some one right away to take care of it. I was gone all afternoon and evening at my granddaughters volleyball tournament. When I arrived back in the late evening the bathroom was still covered in ants. Maintenance showed up in the morning to finally take care of the issue. This caused me to vacate my room prior to my check out time. I spoke with the front desk and they offered no apology. It was obvious customer service was not a priority.

Very pretty. Room service was very slow. I paid for dogs on the reservation, would have been nice if the beds and bowls were already in the room.

Loved our stay! Super dog friendly, every convenience you can imagine. Beds were extremely comfy. Our dog felt like a celebrity with a welcome bandana, bag of treats and complimentary dog bed/bowls.

The property is beautiful but the guests are loud, the lights are bright but the hallway is so bright it bleeds into the room at night. It would be better if the hotel dimmed the hallway from 11 pm to 6 am to remind guests that people may be sleeping. Cleaning staff are friendly and helpful. The property offers a great dog park but clients don't always bother to bring their animals there. Hotel was very pleasant, but heated pool was unavailable.

There should be a bus traveling from one hotel (Riding) to Equestrian. Having to use a car or uber is ridiculous. Hotel is amazing. Staff was great.
