I have a 5 night Cat 1-5 that was part of the SW travel package and looking to plan a trip between Christmas and New Years. It is a Cat 8 so I would need to add 60,000 points for the stay. There is also a resort free of 39 per day for parking, bikes, beach chairs. BTW, the cost during this time is 799 per night which is insane so it better be a hell of a resort because I can't afford the Spa.

Has anyone stayed at this resort? Is the resort, rooms. pool and beach nice. Thoughts please.

I have the points in my account but right now Starwoods is offering 30% off the purchasing of points so 20,000 points cost 490 and this gets 60,000 MR points. It is cheaper than purchasing 60,000 from Marriott but is it worth it,

We have stayed at the Largo Marriott. I was definitely underwhelmed. The place is over priced and extremely tired looking. The rooms are to say the least in need of refurbishing. There is a Courtyard on largo but it's not much better IMHO.

I stayed at Playa Largo last month and it is beautiful. The rooms are spacious and brand new. I think the hotel is only a year old. It has a small beach area and several restaurants on site. It is valet parking only but is included the resort fees.

This is not the hotel the OP was asking about. See post #3 for comments about the Autograph Collection resort that is the subject of this thread.

Oops! Sorry for the confusion. I have never stayed at the Playa Largo. Looks like it should be added as a possible stopover in the future.
