Staff go the extra mile
Highland Beach Resort is a pretty large resort covering a big area, and the staff here have been described by most guests as literally going the extra mile for their guests. If you require extra bathroom towels, or a special meal delivered to your room, these staff members will go to the other side of the resort if they have to.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Spotty Wi-Fi service
There are some areas where Wi-Fi does work effectively, like down in the lobby, however the service is not all that good in the rooms according to most guests. You might be lucky to work without an interruption for about ten minutes at a time.
negative:
No coffee making facility
Most visitors complained about the fact that there are no coffee making facilities in the rooms, and felt that the hotel should at least provide a kettle and some tea and coffee sachets for their convenience.
negative:
Beds a bit too firm
A few visitors have complained about the beds being a bit too firm for them, however they admit that although the beds are a bit uncomfortable to start off with, by the end of the vacation the beds don't feel that bad at all.
