Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Room was very spacious and clean. Requests were promptly attended to. Beach was clean. Check in was fantastic. The only downside was the Turtle Grill. Very slow service and food was served cold. Sent it back and it came back just as it was (cold). Staff at the restaurant seemed bothered by our presence. My kids refused to eat.. The resort itself was top notch..just bad restaurant experience.

Adam, it's wonderful to hear you had a lovely stay at The Nautical Beachfront Resort and found our rooms to be spacious, clean, and our beach well-maintained. It's also great to know that our team members promptly attended to all your requests. However, we regret to hear about your experience at the Turtle Grill. We understand the importance of a pleasant dining experience, and it seems we fell short in this aspect. Please rest assured we'll address this with the relevant colleagues to ensure all guests feel welcome and their needs are met promptly. Thank you for appreciating our resort as a whole. We look forward to welcoming you and your family back for an even better experience next time.

Every single member of the staff was friendly & excelled at customer service skills! We enjoyed the Turtle Grill & gift shop. The pool was warm & attended an outdoor exercise class by a professional aquatic instructor. It was fun locating lighthouses around Lake Havasu & exploring the different boat rental options & tours in the area.

Only plus was view of lake if you had a lakeview room which was higher fee." OLD and TIRED".....old fashioned dryer attached to the wall.....shower faucet dripped...mildew/mold in shower..no sense of urgency to clean it......no daily housekeeping or towel refresh for 5 day stay...yet charged a daily $30 resort fee with no benefit since it's cold. Toilet paper holder fell off the wall every time you used it. Obviously not a new problem yet not fixed. Did send someone to clean next day after requested. Pool was heated...no hot tub. Restaurant food disappointing and expensive. Watercraft rentals higher there than in town which is only a mile or so away. Rooms are not well insulated and you can hear people on both sides....shower in next room is unbelievably loud. Did have a refrigerator and microwave in room and one cup coffee dispenser. They did discount one day $30 resort fee due to mildew in shower. Heating/air-conditioning is unit in the room...noisy but understand this can't be prevented. Would "never" stay here again.
