Everything was good until we did “the tour” once we told them no, we got told we can’t leave until they say we can, which is against my rights, locked out of our hotel room after we left the very forcing salesman, then when we when we were told to ask for a complimentary late check out from the welcome desk, and when we asked security to open our door so we can get our belongings, the philipino woman at the security stand told us that our room doesn’t exist we are “giving her too many numbers” and blamed it on the language barrier, i offered to write it down for her and she just told me to call someone else and shut the door, and continued onto the next car, I have never been to such a beautiful environment but at the same time, such a hostile, rude, disrespectful, there’s not enough negative ways to describe it, service. I genuinely regret choosing Westgate.

Dont judge a hotel by its pictures!
The resort isnt BAD by i suppose, and it was in a great location..but I certainly wouldnt pick this over Orange Lake or Summer Bay. In pictures, it looks MUCH better than it actually is. Again, not saying its bad, just not great. There were a few staff members that gave you that "wow" experience..but overall, most were pretty much just shells of a human that didnt even attempt to help in any way. The walls are VERY thin - and you can hear damn near everything your neighbors say and do. Especially at night..(and especially when they put a large family in 2 rooms.. one to the left of you and one to the right of you..) I didnt want to get the neiighbors in trouble on their vacation, so held off calling security for a nosie complaint until around 2 am. to which the officer knocked for 5 minutes really loud.. as they all acted like they were sleeping. As soon as he left, their music went back on and kids started roughhousing again. My kids need to sleep or I will have two little **** starters all day. so we ended up calling security again a little after three, to which they said "We already sent someone up - it should be calm now."..as I assured them it was not - they assured me it was. No other officer ever came up.. but the music and commotion finally died down around 415 am...after 3 hours of sleep their kids were back at it..and upon waking up, all I could smell were their cigs, walking outside I was harrassed by 3 active cig smokers, and 2 kids running around saying narc!
