"Overall, we enjoyed our time at Ocean Blue & Sands. We were there for 6 nights & were able to eat at all the restaurants, participate in some of the events offered, & really enjoyed the pool & beach! I would recommend this property, but would like to point out a few things that were unexpected/disappointing.
1. The reservation process for restaurants is inconsistent across the various restaurants. 2 you must book online between 7-9 am the day you want to visit. Another one, you can stand in line at 6 pm day-of to get on the list for a later time. The other one, there's no waitlist/reservation list unless they are full at the time you show up. It was confusing & a bit frustrating.
2. The "1-hour presentation" you feel guilted into took 3 HOURS, even after trying to end it multiple times. It's presented to you as "you will hear about the resort's amenities from a concierge," but it's a ploy to get you to hear about the Premium membership package. You are forced to eat breakfast with a rep, listen to the presentation and tour a "Privilege" room to see what you get if you sign up. Friends, the minimum investment was $4K that day and we had 1 hour to decide or the price would triple. My recommendation is not even to entertain the "presentation."
3. There are signs everywhere saying not to reserve the pool/beach chairs, yet every morning they were & people wouldn't even be using them by 11 am or later. We ended up just moving the towels and nobody ever approached us about it! "
