Whispering Pines 5 Stars Hotels

"My daughters and I spent three glorious nights having incredible spa treatments and marvelous food. The only downside was the extremely uncomfortable bed. "

"FOH and F&B staff were great. Shout out to Alonzo and Jeff at Truss. Top notch. Disappointing that Auro ( Michelin star) is not open Sunday through Wednesday. Pool on Sunday, next to no service, had to put up umbrella and get towels. Kids pool for kids 1year -to 15 years is 30" deep and was 94 degrees. Asked if there was a problem with the heater , never got an answer. Asked if the kids could cool off in the other pool ( it was 84) steps and got the brush off. Watched the pool bartender make me a gin/tonic at the pool, he pours the gin and tonic water in a bare glass with no ice and hands it to me. I just laugh and tell him he forgot something. Ulisis was the pool manager on Monday , did a good job. The rooms are very nice. the downside for our family is that there are no double queen rooms, they are actually double beds. The queens would easily fit, I think the hotel owners ( not 4 seasons) are discouraging anyone with a family of 4 from staying at the hotel. For a couple, It's very nice. Not sure I'd go back with a family, given the bed and pool situation. Given the emptiness of the property, I think the customers are sending a message and management should listen. "

"Nice amenities but my room smelled like weed and the room was on the high end I would have expected a little more attention"
