This property specifically was pretty basic, nothing “exclusive” or “luxury” stood out. It was roomy and clean and yes the resort in general had good amenities, but this home in particular did not stand out in any particular way.
The internet was down 3 out of the 7 days we were there. We were welcomed to a stove with no door whatsoever-which was very quickly replaced by the resort so we did appreciate that. But still kind of shocking, making it feel as if no one checked the place out before having customers stay. The grill was a complete waste of money-we cooked hotdogs and burgers for over an hour until we had to resort to completing the cooking on the stove. There were literally zero blankets or throw blankets in this home. Only the bedspreads and sheets, not an extra piece of linen anywhere to be found, which included pool towels- we had to buy those at WalMart. Also very bare bones on necessities- no salt, no pepper, 1 trashbag… I think you get the picture. If you have kids that will enjoy the pool, don’t expect anything like a raft or even a simple pool noodle, you’ll have to buy anything like that yourself.
I “may” consider staying with Encore just for the amenities for kids at the water park, but hopefully all of their homes aren’t as bland as this one. Very much like a hotel experience, not like a home experience at all.
