Hands down, one will not see a view as beautiful anywhere else but at Skycastles and Columbus Heights. The views offered from the units here are what won me over.

Skycastles and Columbus Heights share the same grounds, and there are many clusters of units each with their own pool. There is a tennis court and commissary (directly above the main office at Skycastles). As these units are individually owned, the furnishings and upkeep will vary. I have stayed in different units each trip back to Skycastles/Columbus Heights and have not had an undesirable unit to date.

The only thing that some would consider a downfall is the hike - guests that do not have a car literally have to hike up and down a series of semi-steep hills to get to and from the property and main road. For me this was a bonus as it was my daily exercise, but for those with bad knees or limited mobility keep this in mind.

Sky Castles feels like home. You have maid service thats cleans weel & can cook even better. The location is great across from Margaritaville.

locals hanging about and doing drugs around the pool. one of the locals even tried to sexually abuse me in the pool, not to mention followed me to my room and continued to bother me throughout my stay (myself being 14 at the time!). place was filthy dirty. only positives were the staff were friendly, great views and good food.

First I must say the good thing about this place is the guy that works at the front desk.
Other than that i regret the two nights that I spent there. The first bad thing is that they were totally overbooked and they had to give the room I wanted to someone who had booked through a travel agency months in advance. (the agency supposedly didnt inform the resort that the people were coming, so the room that I was supposed to get went to them) So I got stuck in a studio with two twin beds. The sleep was sooooo uncomfortable. We were falling inbetween the two beds all night.
In the morning I asked if there was another room that we could switch to. Of course there was only one room and it was another studio. I took it anyway. The guy was great, helping me move my things.
The kitchen at this hotel are in need of new appliances. The stoves are all burned up; the fridge are rusted and dont work very well; The dishes need to be updated as well.
The overall appearance of the rooms are ok. The decor need to be replaced.
The second room that I got moved to was worst than the first I must say. It was on the second level. The windows were not all covered with the curtains. so people ouside could look into our room through the kitchen window. Then the people that are above our room could look down onto the bedroom and see everything that we are doing. There was a lack of privacy that I didnt like at all.
The outside of the place looks nice but once you go inside its a disappointment.
The roof in the room looked patched up; the lamp shade was broken; and the list goes on. I will upload pictures so that you can see what I am talking about.
Only stay here if you are not bothered by appearance and comfort.
