So disappointed...
After coming here for a few years, I'm extremely disappointed with my recent experience at Skip Jack. Some of the front desk new faces were not very customer service oriented. Restaurant food was overall awful! It's really a shame, considering this place is located in such convenient location. I doubt we will ever come back here again...

The main dislike was the A/C system in the rooms. In the first room we were given there was a buzzing noise from the in-room A/C unit. So we moved to a different room. The A/C worked briefly and then stopped. Maintenance got it working the next day but it stopped working again. So we spent both nights we stayed without A/C. I couldn't recommend the property for this reason.

Check in staff very pleasant. There was a disagreement between guest in the lobby while checking in. Made it hard to hear the staff while explaining the facility. Rooms were nice, view not so much. I paid extra for that. On site facilities are old. Amenities were OK. Restaurant on site not really ideal. We had dinner last night at Faro Blanco. I would highly recommend staying there! Same price even a little less. Beautiful facilities and views. Sorry Skip Jack's we will not be returning.

Not a resort
The staff here was extremely nice and helpful. The only problem was that booking on hotels.com led me to believe that we were getting a large 2 bedroom suite. We were just given connecting hotel rooms. It also said there were kayaks on the property which there were not, the game room had been vandalized so it was closed, and the bikes they had to ride were restricted to the property, which is just a parking lot. The pool was very nice and the pool bar was fun. We had booked a three night stay but left after one. The manager did refund us for a night, which we very much appreciated. I think the main problem is that it is advertised as a resort when in reality it is just a hotel.

The only thing is that the elevator was still not working. Had to walk up four flights of stairs or walk down the long hallway. Other than that it was a nice stay.

SkipJack is a lovely property. Our room (and probably every room) had a bedroom with a second room; sitting area & kitchenette. Plenty of seating at the pool. The pool bar is a fun little spot. Breakfast was great! Made to order eggs! bacon, bagels, waffles, cereals etc also available. We would definitely stay there again
