Answering some of the questions above... - all first floor around the quiet pool. In our opinion a great location. We party late but like it quiet when we do decide it is time to go to sleep so you don't have to deal with noise from patty o's - we had 1108. Did not have a shade but that didn't stop us from, well, you know. Usually not much traffic in that area late at night. - we paid 96 extra a night and we thought it was worth it. Was a great place to hang out before the nightly events or late night. The pools close pretty early and we are not nappers. - hop the balcony wall and go over to the quiet pool bar for your first round of drinks if you are hanging in the tub. Tip him 10-20 and tell him where your hot tub is located. He will then be bringing you drinks directly to the tub any time he sees you out there. Well worth it. - yes it is like a bath tub. We just kept the hot water running to keep it hot. It fits four people very snugly. I was very disappointed about this until I saw it fitting four ladies snugly. So quickly I realized maybe the size was not so bad. It's all about the ladies anyway!
Thanks everyone! We aren't nappers either, so I think we can take advantage of some quiet time before or after the night time action. And if that bartender can keep those drinks coming without me even having to get off the balcony, I doubt I will even care about the shade! From reading another thread on here it doesn't seem as though its that far from the action, but just far enough for some quiet time when needed! Thanks again!!
We hung out with some friends we met that had a hot tub room, right behind the Italian place. We had the shade pulled most of the time, but it was entertaining to see the girls hop the wall and head to the quiet pool bar to get drinks. Got some great looks from people eating their meals! Small tub, not very warm, and the drain plug wouldn't stay in. I personally wouldn't pay the extra money, but it was nice to get to know some people who did! :xyxthumbs:
We've had jacuzzi rooms the last 3 times we've been there (mainly due to our travel agent mentioning we were multiple returners). However we have only used the tub once (because the gals on the 2nd floor asked if we were going to use it AND brought down a bottle of Jose, ok, and they flashed me). But it is nice having a ground floor room.
We upgraded to a Jacuzzi room last week because it rained all day. It gave us something to do except bitch about the rain. We fit 4 people in there including my fat ass. It was fun. We got the bartender to give us a few bottles of wine with a nice tip. It takes a while to fill the tubs up. The beds over there are hard as hell. The bed we had over in the other room by Patty O's was much nicer. And the showers over in the jacuzzi rooms are not the overhead rain shower heads like the other rooms.
I like the room location better than the room itself. Have only used the tub once and it was cold. Didn't do much to help with the bow chicka bow bow. The blinds are nice because I like sleeping with my door wide open and it keeps the sun out and privacy in.
jen it does sound like we wont have the dual shower heads. i guess we could email the resort and ask them if any of them have them. i do love all the hot tub room stories though. so far i have figured out that if we tip well, stay out there long enough, get the bartender to keep us drunk so we dont notice the hard bed, have to actually share a shower head, but yet not get too drunk while sitting in the not so hot tub that we accidently forget to pull the shade down......well im thinking im going to have fun with this situation anyway! when it doubt, i will message jim for directions to his broom closet and spend some time with his favorite mop! thanks again for all the info!! michelle
