We really enjoyed our stay at Polynesian Residences. Location is amazing right by nice stores, Fort DeRussy beach and cool malls. Staff was courteous, very kind and helpful. Our room was cleaned regularly. We had complimentary beach mats and beach towels daily. The lil kitchen had all it needed to make our meals. We will definitely return.

While a few staff members were kind and friendly, the experience overall did not meet our expectations. It was especially concerning that the hotel did not have bandages or a basic first-aid kit available when needed. Very limited outside seating near the pool.

Room was clean and front desk lady was very kind and helpful. What I did not like was upon arriving to the front desk after booking online, the hotel hits you with a surprise $23 “resort fee”. I checked in after 11pm and checked out before 7:30am. Why do I need to pay a resort fee and why is it a surprise?? Why is it not transparent in the online fee. This is kind of a scam and not appreciated
