Reviews and Ratings
I had a relaxed stay at Thunder Valley. The ocean blue color of the rooms was soothing, making it easy to drift off to sleep peacefully. The service was hit and miss, with some staff making you feel welcome while others seemed disconnected from guests' needs. The location was convenient, not too far from home but a bit on the expensive side. Dining options were decent, especially enjoying the mornings with room service. The facilities were well-maintained, although some improvements could enhance the overall experience.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were just as described on their website: spacious, well-furnished, and equipped with a coffee pot and mug, which was a nice touch. However, the lack of a fan in the bathroom made it uncomfortable at times. The service was decent, with staff members explaining all the amenities in the room, but there was room for improvement in their customer service skills. The location was convenient, although a bit on the expensive side. The dining experience was satisfactory, with fresh seasonal fruits being a highlight. The facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.
The hotel offers sleek and stylish rooms with very comfortable beds and a clean, non-smoking environment. The staff is warm and friendly, always thoughtful and professional, making us feel cared for and respected. The location is fantastic, with something for everyone, but could benefit from more shade. The dining options were surprisingly good, but some areas could use improvement. Overall, a great choice for a stay with good value for money.
