My friends and I had visited this Resort previously without any issues. The rooms are nice and while the service was not 5 star, the staff were pleasant enough and quite helpful. I don't know what has made this change, but on our most recent trip my friends and I had the complete opposite experience.From the get go the staff were noticeably colder than we had experienced on previous occasions, and there was a distinct impression that we weren't really wanted at the resort, despite having visited previously. A feeling of not being welcome was not the greatest start to the visit.On our second night, a couple in the group were talking on the hot tub at around 1:00am when a member of staff asked them if they could keep the noise down. Nothing had been said prior to this, and on being asked the members of our party in the hot tub told the staff member of course and went to bed.Nothing further was heard until the following morning when different members of our party tried to use the spa facilities. Before even reaching the spa entrance, a member of staff shouted at them across the lobby that they weren't using the spa, that they needed to leave the resort immediately and if they did not the Police would be called. This was obviously quite shocking given the lack of prior communication, and the staff member initially refused to explain why they were being asked to leave. Eventually the group was told that a noise complaint had been made the night before and the entire party needed to leave without further notice.This was initially very hard to believe, as the people in the hot tub had gone to bed immediately when they were asked, and nothing further had been said. To say such an approach was heavy handed and disproportionate is an understatement. Given the attitude towards our group throughout the stay before this, it seems that the resort staff were basically looking for any excuse to get rid of our party.What was even worse was that people our group knew who happened to be staying in the resort at the same time were also asked to leave, solely through association with our group. This group had not even been at our lodge that evening.Naturally this ruined the entire weekend. Overall the attitude of the staff was extremely disappointing even before the party was asked to leave, and the conduct of the resort in asking the entire party to leave as well as other guests who knew us was very unprofessional. Our group has visited this resort on a number of occasions, but after this experience I would strongly recommend that anybody considering staying in Laugharne stay at one of the other hotels.

Nice spot, but really poor customer service/care. For a “luxury” establishment you’d expect staff/management to a bit more polite or well mannered. I’d recommend other places to stay in Laugharne before here.

Report and accommodation are excellent, the views are beautiful. The staff were friendly and helpful. The Spa and restaurant made the holiday experience so much more. This resort does have some hills but when you stop and take a breath just look at the view and its all worth while.

We had the opportunity to stay at a lodge at the resort via a friend who belongs to a time-share group. For transparency, the accommodation was provided free, so our only costs were travel and food & drink. …

Spent a long weekend here with friends, what a FANTASTIC place! Location is beautiful with stunning views, staff are friendly and helpful, and the facilities are everything you would need. The Lodge was spacious with amazing views, and hot tub was a great bonus which adds to the relaxing holiday feel! It also had everything you'd need for a home from home weekend away.The Milkwood restaurant provides fantastic food (the best Sunday dinner!) and staff are friendly and accommodating. The spa facilities are clean and not too overcrowded when we went, with a pool, gym, sauna and hydro pool.We'd booked treatments too, and they were great. Will definitely return!

Simply unacceptable and unprofessional quality of customer service. What should have been a joyous celebration of a friend we lost some years ago, instead left a bitter pill to swallow. Despite our group complying with all requests on first asking, the largely uncooperative staff pre, during and post stay, meant our group (and several in the larger party of different lodges) were out of pocket, and accommodation options at that late stage. You would think a place like this would have customer experience as a top priority, but instead severely lacking, in all respects. Disappointing and frustrating.
