We have been asked to provide feedback for this resort. but when we arrived we were sent to another hotel. which smells terrible. although they invited us to their resort. is this some kind of joke? they said come tomorrow so that we would tell you everything))) but sent us to another place. strange0 stars

Stayed six days in a large one bedroom on a RCI Points exchange. Clean comfortable room with a Lanai/balcony overlooking the golf course. Myself and my neighbor both had trouble lighting the barbecues - could only get two burners going. Nice distribution of pools including one good lap pool. Jacuzzis were nice and warm.

Very well kept resort. Lots of swimming pools & whirlpools. Saunas. Top quality equipt in workout room (though needs more). Good flea market while there with decent prices. Great location for going to the beach near Oceanside, or San Diego or a wine tour out of Vista area. Nice golf course.

We are Welk Platinum Owners and had the great fortune today of seeing. A Chorus Line from the second row, the theater is incredible. This is a show about a show, dancers and singers auditioning to be in a Chorus Line on broadway. The director lines everyone up, they dance and sing and the great part is he interviews each one of them and makes them dive into their pasts from childhood and much emotional stuff comes out. I left the show with tears in my eyes, that was how great the show was. Several very experienced cast members and several very talented current or just recently graduated theater arts degrees in the cast. This show just affirms why our family feel in love with musical theater so many years ago. Great job Welk Theater.

We had a nice stay. Our rooms were comfortable, the kitchen area had plenty of cookware and dishes. There were swimming pools, and a hot tub. I enjoyed walking to the little shops area in the morning, and looking at the nice fountains and planting areas.

Went to see Menopause the Musical for girls night out. We all laughed so hard, what a fun night! The theatre is relatively small; I dont think theres a bad seat anywhere. Weve been to other productions here and they have all been spectacular.

Dont let their marketing trick you into going to preview their resort in exchange for a free vacation somewhere extraordinary. They make a lot of empty promises and wont give you any details until you show up at the resort. We were told wed get two free flights to Hawaii and 2 nights free stay, with the option of extending the trip with discounted prices for accommodations, just for showing up and seeing the place and telling our friends about it, with no obligation to buy. At least they cant force you to buy anything, but they try awefully hard to get you to sign up for *something* so that they can then pester you into upgrading. When we didnt sign any contracts, then they told us rather brusquely that our free Hawaiian vacation was a flight late on Tuesday to Hawaii with return early the following Thursday morning, giving one day to spend in Hawaii, and they wont even confirm your travel day or flights until possibly a few weeks in advance. Youre also not guaranteed to get the days you request. At this point we said good riddance and never even tried as it sounds like the travel company you have to book through doesnt return calls, wont confirm anything, and requires you to send more money before they even tell you your flight details. The whole thing is a scam.

It was the Welk Resort not the theater that I stayed at. It had fabulous grounds, five rec centers, restaurant, shops, activities, many pools and spas, three golf courses, tennis courts and even a street fair. Our favorite vacation spot.

Review №33

Was very nice. They have made nice improvements to the theater. The Mama Mia show was awesome! The cast was great especially Sophie ! The music was great considering it was only a few musicians. Very reasonably priced for such a quality musical ! Keep up the good work, currently they are doing 5 shows a week.

The room left my childrens feet black, no excommunication. Waited 2 hours for the shuttle, guy says he had to take his break suppose no one to cover him? Staff was a bit rude, got shunned for asking if they had a book of matches. Ill never spend my money or time there again.

The hotel has ton,of spider webs. On the kids toilet flush handle there was poop stains. Immediately, I call the front desk and took pics. The hotel didnt do anything. They said the house keeping is a totally different company/department and that different company didnt call us 3 days. The day before we were leaving/check out the hotel she called and just apologized. So, nice big rooms. Looks clean however it is not at ALL

Fun place to stay. Weve been here for 5 days, out of the 5 days, we have had 2 good nights, nice comfortable, beautiful view UNTIL someone checked into the room above us. They are constantly walking back and forth, sounds like they rearranging the furniture. They take a dinner break and start back up around 9pm until around 11:30. Then its quite time.

The atmosphere is great and the theater has a charm to it. The Lawrence Welk secure reminds you of days gone by. The concessions leave a lot to be desired. On the night we attended they were not open. Last time we were there the selection was small. Overall, great place to go watch a performance.
