Some staff not very friendly with guests
A number of guests say that some staff members are not overly friendly, nor do they wish to interact with guests in passing. The front desk staff and manager are very receptive to guest concerns regarding staff members and work hard to make sure that everyone staying at the resort has a good experience.

Restaurants can be difficult to get service
Some of the al-a-carte restaurants can be very difficult to get into, especially during lunchtime and dinnertime. Guests note that making reservations at one of the restaurants is a better option than trying to wait for quick service.
