FantasyWorld Resort

Don't believe the hype!! Let me start by saying I am an extreme introvert and I really don't enjoy social interactions. I do, however, read the reviews and opinions of others when it comes to travel and I find that most of the time a large majority of the reviews are spot on. I myself, don't write reviews but I felt so strongly about my Fantasy World Resort experience that I felt compelled to warn others. Here goes... As I said, most of the review trends here on Tripadvisor are very accurate from my perspective but... ever so often I come across a review trend where more than 75% of the people give the location 5 stars where my experience with the same place was not even close and I walk away wondering what did others see that I did not. Fantasy World is such a place. Here are my bullet points Positives: 1. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They're really nice people that do their best to help. 2. The resort (not the room) amenities: The pool area has a small waterpark feel but the kids activities were the real icing on the cake. 3. One review noted the hard beds. They added mattress toppers so it made a difference. Negatives: 1. The rooms!!!! Just like many have stated the rooms are outdated but I say it is more than that. They are in need of complete renovation and remodeling!! I had an "updated" room and it was just terrible. New counter tops and thermostats are not an update. a. saw 4 total roaches during my time there. b. the downstairs bath was in bad shape. Toilet seat was loose and was not cleaned on one side (looked like dried orange drink). Shower was too small to function. I could tell there was water damage in the unit due to the swelling of the wood at the base of the bathroom and closet doors. c. termites in the bathroom sink where the caulking met the new granite counter top. d. carpet was worn and needed replacing e. the corner of every door in the house that did have carpet was dingy and dirty f. Air vents were dirty and worn g. Dryer struggled to dry clothes h. door hinges were rusty and painted over i. condo smelled old and musty j. You could tell the bedrooms were from 1984 as small as they were I kept thinking that I can't be the only one seeing this. The dinginess was enough to make my skin crawl. Worry about more bugs invading the condo made me quickly remove every crumb that was dropped on the floor. 2. The property grounds was also in bad shape. Grass was mainly a bunch of weeds and the mulch had not been refreshed for years. In summary, the small waterpark style amenities were the big draw and the staff were great people but the rooms .... for what they charged I expected the rooms to be in better shape. It was as if they had such a small budget for room remodels that they had to be real picky in what was done. I did not see a 5 star review resort. So if you do not plan to stay in your room AT ALL then you may have a good time. Other wise the amenities are not worth the terrible rooms and you are better off staying at a location less than 30 years old like the Bahama Bay Breeze.

Awesome staff, Great amenities, and Adequate accommodations Staff: Amazing, very accommodating, responsive to requests, and professional. Resort amenities and waterpark: Grandchildren give it a 10 out of 10. Accommodations: The villas are acceptable; though not as well maintained or as up to date as other accommodations rented for n the past. Grounds: Overall, well maintained.

Worst experience Come to this resort 4 years in a row and this was my worst experience, washer and dryer didn’t work , fan in room didn’t work sink didn’t work and we called maintenance and they only fixed the sink , I told check out person and only we are sorry for that was said . Sad because I love this hotel but I don’t think I will be back next year !

As much fun as an all-inclusive resort! We just had a fantastic weekend at FantasyWorld Resort! The included mini golf, foosball, lazy river, water slides, table tennis, splashpad, and foam party were big hits. We celebrated my birthday there, and having the full townhouse made it great to have enough space for the kids. We never had a problem getting a deck chair, it was very fun and relaxing! The bar food menu is great and reasonably priced, and it was fun for the kids to have snow cones and ice creams while I got an excellent pina colada. The poolside activities meant we never got bored.

Wonderful I have always enjoying there. Wonderful vacation home. So close to everything that you wold need to enjoy. I've been going there every since 2013. My family have always look forward to going there every year. Fantasy world is very clean, and with that , it is very comfortable to stay.
