Roche Harbor Resort

It is a pretty little place. Very busy. Very noisy if in Quarryman. Upstairs neighbors sounded like they were re arranging furniture all night. Then in the morning, they got up early to enjoy the sounds of trucks unloading and employees talking on speakerphone in the center with me. After they finished a quick cup of coffee, they must have decided to rearrange the outdoor chairs and table for an hour or so. Sarcasm aside, I can see how some very social people might enjoy this place. I did not. I guess I fell for the "peacful" or "relaxing" bit. Where we were was anything but. As a matter of fact, this was one of the least relaxing places I've ever stayed. Couldn't sleep due to noise. Trucks come right outside around 5 AM and unload. Nothing is included and there's no cooking in the quarryman rooms, so you're buying way overpriced meals (with poor service that forgot my food TWICE). McMillans had excellent food, appropriately priced. There was a wedding one of the evenings, so perhaps that really put a damper on things, but it really was noisy and underwhelming throughout. Just a nice, extraordinarily overpriced, super noisy room right next to vehicles, listening to conversations outside on the street, purchasing crappy food (to be fair, just the café qualifies as crappy, but it's the only breakfast option) as part of a "resort" that's completely open to the public. *** makes this a resort?

We stayed in a suite in the Quarryman part of the hotel. Very nice room, comfortable. I'm giving it 3 stars as the hotel engages in the 4 sins of modern "hotelism": 1) Resort fee (5% of total bill, the courts we wanted to play on were closed for repairs); 2) No housekeeping. They told us this upon check-in however, we talked to the housekeeping staff and they made up the room 3 of the 4 nights we were there; 3) 3% service fee in the McMillin's restaurant. Apologies to the hotel if they are not affiliated with this restaurant but I believe they are; 4) Checkout at 11am. It's sad to stay in a hotel in this price range and feel like you're getting nickel and dimed.

We stayed from a Tuesday-Friday as we had our destination wedding on the resort. The location and resort speak for itself. It is stunning. We and our 70 guests could not say enough wonderful things about the experience. We had people fly in from all over the country and most made it a point to let us know that everything was amazing-from the resort food, views, rooms, location and one of- if not the best- weddings they ever attended. The customer service is above and beyond. We cannot express our gratitude enough for the Roche Harbor Weddings and Events team-Ashley, Stina, Cilena, and Laura. These women are amazing and really go above and beyond to make your day (in our case -weekend) an incredible experience. It was the little touches provided that made the greatest impact. The follow up from start to finish and after our wedding was met with urgency and care. The team works with empathy and seem to truly love what they do. A last shoutout to our bartenders-Krissy and Nic. They were the most personable, fun people to have working for our day. They made us and our guests feel at home and we were so grateful for them. Thank you Roche!
