| - My husband and I decided to do a little staycation at the Wigwam - just 2 nights. We had never stayed there before, but had attended a seminar and an office function in the past and we thought it was a pretty cool place. Lots of history, which we really love! When we arrived on Monday we asked for a room over by the adult pool, and the person checking us in said, "Oh, the Oasis Pool?" and we said yes. I had read on their website that it was an adult pool and she confirmed that with her statement. So we were off to our room and I had lovely visions of laying by the pool with nice music playing and a cabana bar nearby where waitpeople would come by and bring us fruity rum drinks. So we got our suits on and ventured out to the pool. There were only 3 other people there, and two of them were teenagers. No big deal. They were being quiet. So we looked around for the cabana bar, and there was one, but it was closed (and there was no music). I was disappointed, but thought maybe it would open a little later (it was 3:00pm). Well it didn't open and it was pretty obvious that it would not open anytime in our lifetime. So my husband found a phone over at the bar with a sign that said you could order over the phone and they would bring the drinks/food to us. We ordered a Bud Light and a fruity rum drink. It took about 20 minutes to arrive. The bill was $24.00. $24.00!!!!!! The beer was $5, fruity rum drink was $8, a room service fee of $7 and a delivery fee of $4! Was it our fault the Cabana bar wasn't open?!? I asked the server (who could barely speak English) when the Cabana bar would be open. She said in broken English, "Only open on special occasions". What?!? So off she went and then here come the little kiddos all excited and immediately doing cannonballs off the side of the pool! Woo hoo!!! OK, now I'm upset. So I call the resort on my cell and ask if they have an adult pool. I'm told the main pool is separated by a bridge and one side has the water slide, etc, blah, blah. Then I say, I heard you have an Oasis Pool that is for adults. And I'm told, well, most of the kids are at the other pool, so you would only occasionally see children at the Oasis Pool (as I'm being splashed by the latest cannonball). He says, children are allowed at all the pools, however. I thanked him. Ok, so they don't have a specific "adult" pool. Just another disappointment. Don't get me wrong, I love kids. I just don't want to put up with screaming and cannonballs while I'm attempting to enjoy my $12 Mai tai.
Our room was nice, but it seemed a little odd that they would have this high tech touch screen computer on the desk touting their resort services along with an old fashioned TV in the old fashioned entertainment center. And by the way, the picture links on the touch screen didn't work. Our bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was very large with lots of towels and toiletries. Very nice Mexican style glassware and the usual coffee maker.
We decided to try the other pool (the one with the slide), because it did have a bar and music. We thought if we stayed on the non-slide side it wouldn't be too bad. And we were right. Not too many kids. We enjoyed our time there and had lunch by the pool which was served to us in our lounge chairs. I had another Mai tai which was minus the delivery fees. My husband brought his own Bud Lights which we secretly stashed on ice in our beach bag.
The resort was clean and well maintained. We didn't have breakfast or dinner there, but lunch by the pool was very good. Probably won't go back due to the lack of the adult pool, but overall it is a nice resort.
