Our room was clean and spacious, loved the outside tub on our balcony. Their sushi restaurant was excellent with very friendly staff. We sat at the sushi bar and asked them to surprise us with their favorites, it was so good we went twice on our stay. The grounds were very well maintained and beautiful. Would definitely stay again!!

While the room (in the building) was lovely, the property does not live up to its price point. check in was disorganized and slow, my room key bracelet didnt work, elevator buttons don't light up. No one on the beach offering drink service, not enough chairs around the pool, servers who scrape plates tableside in a fine dining restaurant. Mostly small things, but again, felt like a moderate chain hotel, not a boutique high class establishment. Won't be going back.

Amazing stay with a few hiccups

Overall amazing property with friendly, attentive staff. However, room service had a disconnected line with no way to reach them, even through the front desk, and the response provided by management was that it was a busy time, which didn't explain the inability to even reach them. Additionally, we made use of the pull out couch bed, and while our expectations of comfort were low, it was bad enough so as to make it unusable, even for our children, which was disappointing since the room was described as sleeping 4. The manager did address our concerns and compensated us accordingly, which was greatly appreciated, and aside from the room service issue, everything else exceeded our expectations.

Very high daily hidden resort fee that you are not told about. And then charged to your room - we got a $600 bill checking out only for the resort fees! Our chicken was not cooked one night from room service. Everything else was perfect! Beautiful resort and the service is impeccable.

Cheeca Lodge used to be a great place a few years ago. The resort feels rundown and for the price you expect a much higher quality overall. The dining experience at Mía Cucina, the resort’s Italian restaurant, was awful. The food was one of the worst we’ve had anywhere. On the positive, the amenities are good. The bicycles, pickleball and tennis courts, paddle boards and kayaks are great. The location and property have a huge potential. It just needs more attention and less of a corporate profit-at-any-cost mentality.
