8/10 Very good

Place was nice and a good location! Women at the front desk were lovely and very helpful! The apartment beds were a little too firm, our laundry machine was broken throughout our stay (we were counting on using it), and our shower toiletries were empty on the first day until we asked for more. Would recommend for a good place with a good location, but certainly not luxurious!

10/10 Exceptional

We had an amazing stay at Waters Edge! The location was perfect, an easy 4 min walk (walking with young children) to the shops, grocery store and about 8 minutes to the lagoon. The resort is at the bottom of a steep hill and we were thankful we didn’t have to walk up it! The folks at the front desk were very helpful and friendly. The room itself was clean and comfortable. The pools were beautiful and thoroughly enjoyed!

Ideal location

Our apartment was recently updated & had reviewed needed. The 3 different pools were amazing. Ideal location, could walk everywhere. Really great for families.
Arty, 3-night trip
Verified

8/10 Very good

The location and spaciousness of the place are 5-star. The interior has been refurbished and it was very comfortable. The washer and dryer in the apartment made this highly convenient. The pool was pleasant and had an awesome view. The bathrooms are 3-star (could use some new grout) but not as bad as what I read on other reviews. Parking is included and easy. For a family, I would definitely stay here again. Things I wish I knew before arriving: 1) you must make arrangements for check-in after 5pm; 2) this is a true apartment and not a hotel (no service to the room unless you stay longer than a week).
