    Thanks for the report and your perspective. If you change your mind in the future, I suggest taking the offer, or insist on a room closer to what is important to you. Thanks again.

    Must really love some ice not to go back to the resort because it wasn't readily available. :)

    Actually, that’s a great idea!!! We just happen to have a collapsible Yeti cooler that keeps ice for days. Didn’t even cross my mind. It is now on my list of hacks. Problem 1 is solved! Yay!!! Feel kind of stupid now, but in a happy way.

    Actually it was the convenience of the ice. We bring a few bottles of our own sippin whiskey and such for post SNAP and late night caps on the balcony. Not to worry though, got it resolved thanks to THE Sexjunkies. :D

    We overlapped for the first few days of your trip and I might have met you. Maybe I am desensitized to them but I have to say that I didn't notice that many cell phones. I saw a couple of ladies sitting in the floating chairs looking like they were reading and I know that a few times people on the Bash deck were told to not take pictures during the Sexy Pool games. I also saw security ask people to stop taking pictures in Bash a couple of times when it was obvious they were taking pics of unknowing people. As for ice machines, I never gave them a thought but I understand that what is important to someone else may not matter to me.

    I saw on your trip report is that you didn't eat at Romanza. Too bad. The cannelloni is pretty damn good.

    I hope that if you had as much fun as it looks like you did with all the 5 stars that you might consider booking the tower on a future trip and have your ice machines.

    I agree totally on this bit:

    'the magical stair process. Which, by the way, the stairs are straight out of a Harry Potter novel, I swear they changed every time we walked them'...

    Me too. My wife remembered the route to the room every time. Me, no. Those stairs change every feckin time I climb them without her.

    We always push for a good Room now and it's worth it. Annoy them enough and you'll get a nice upgrade.


    I hope you change your mind on returning tho. For us, any negatives are more than balanced by the positives. You sound fun, come back, we need you!!!

    I can add really nothing more that others have not already posted but wanted to thank you for taking the time to write a thorough and balanced report based on your experiences and opinion.
    Thanks again for sharing!
    I do hope you work things out with the ice.
    Maybe next time take the bell hop’s advice to select another room!
    As for the privacy, I hope TTR works out the cell phone thing...and they can.
    But it is really and mostly generational and our new World which does not bode well for privacy.
