    The pillows and bed could be a little more comfortable. The price is just too high for what it is.

    The atmosphere and upkeep of the outdoors is just beautiful.

    Our room lacked a bath, so if you want a bath tub make sure you enquire before booking. Breakfast was great, although we quite enjoy a buffet style breakfast and find it works better for families. I was disappointed to see birds flying on tables and eating food from the tables at the breakfast restaurant. The hotel needs to put a net cover over the outside seating area to keep birds out. We sat inside a lot to avoid this and such a shame to miss the views and sunshine. The showers could have been more powerful in the rooms for a more luxurious stay.

    Beautiful resort, spacious grounds you can walk and beautiful gardens and flowers. Great facilities for children and plenty of pools on offer. Also the gym and the arcade were enjoyed by our family.

    The room wasnt clean as it should be. One of a glass had lipstick marks on, toilet bowl had stains that was just disgusting. Trash was on the walk way to our room The staff at the front desk was not friendly at all. With the amount money we paid, i thought we deserved some like of good customer service. Staff at the front seems to be too busy for us to ask questions. Staff at the pools was super friendly though which made our stay better.

    I liked the decorations . It looks very pretty

    well….. honestly, it lost its family values. feels a lot less built for families than previous years. hotel room smelled, phone didn’t work, called front desk, spa, concierge etc and no lines worked went to busy signal, internet never worked so we couldn’t get work done while we were there, hotel room booking was extremely confusing on what type of room we are reserving online which ended up not being the type of room i asked for, ridiculous rate for what the room had, old outdated key cards that didn’t work every other time, feels like it’s all about money money money. when i walked over to front and told staff about the issues of the room they only said sorry about that, we will look into it…. really? might be the last time we come. totally lost tue feel we loved so much

    we were surprised buffet wasn’t there anymore. breakfast we did get was great. location yes. lots of options to do at the hotel. beautiful exterior.

    Staying at a resort I had hoped the sheets would have been nicer and not so itchy. The room seemed to need some upgrades such as paint, scrubbing the hard water residue off the shower doors, there was old hair in the coffee pot and the toilet paper holder was broken. My husband didn't care for the ringing bell every hour. It kept waking him up all night. We also didn't care for the bathroom doors that didn't provide any privacy at all. We ordered pizzas from the marketplace and the pizzas were undercooked and missing several toppings. Also wished those could have been delivered instead of having to walk out in the rain to get them. Disappointed that they charged for wifi. Haven't seen that at a resort before in my experience. Would have loved if they provided a couple bottles of water. Could have used those in the morning.

    The grounds are beautiful and so beautifully decorated for the holidays. Great selections of restaurants and amenities. The lobby shop was incredible with so many options of everything you need right there. We absolutely loved the tub in our bathroom. So relaxing. The valet gentlemen were so nice and helpful as well as housekeeping. The gym was amazing! We loved the touch of providing umbrellas. We needed them.

    Omni is a beautiful resort. The landscape and property is gorgeous. It is def a getaway spot. The spa was enjoyable. The room was a nice size and it was clean. You definitely get your steps in, parking is a distance away from the hotel rooms.

    Absolutely abysmal experience at Omni La Costa Resort & Spa, a complete rip-off! For nearly $4000 for three nights, we expected a luxurious family suite for seven, but what we got was a nightmare. The first 'suite' was two open, interconnected rooms – no kitchen, incredibly dirty, and I found two spiders, a serious concern with a baby present. I have pictures to prove the deplorable conditions. After complaining, we were moved to a 'better' suite, yet shockingly, they charged us extra despite the initial unacceptable conditions. This second suite, while larger, reeked of a foul odor. To make matters worse, incessant noise from the room above, even after calls to the front desk and assurances of security intervention, continued unabated throughout our stay. This hotel is a disgrace and a monumental waste of money. Avoid at all costs.
