Margaritaville Resort Lake Tahoe

10/10 Excellent
"We had an amazing stay at Margaritaville Resort Lake Tahoe! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the beautiful ambience, relaxing atmosphere, and overall cleanliness of the property. Our room and the common areas were very clean, comfortable, and well maintained, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The resort has a wonderful vacation vibe with plenty to enjoy without even leaving the property. The swimming pool was great for relaxing, and the fitness center was clean, modern, and well equipped. One of our favorite experiences was spending the evening around the fire pit while enjoying the live music. It created such a warm, lively, and memorable atmosphere and was the perfect way to end the day. The location is also fantastic for exploring South Lake Tahoe and the surrounding attractions. Overall, Margaritaville offered a great combination of comfort, cleanliness, entertainment, and a fun yet relaxing atmosphere. We truly enjoyed our stay and made some wonderful memories here. We would definitely stay again and highly recommend it to families, couples, and anyone visiting Lake Tahoe!"

Gold Dust West Carson City

8/10 Good
"The room was clean and didn't smell too much like smoke till I was in there longer then I really noticed the smoke. It says a non smoking room, but definitely smelled of smoke. The AC blew cold, but was loud cycling on and off. Shower looked nice, up to date walk in shower with glass door. The water pressure was awful! hardly any water comes out of that fancy square shower head. Took forever to wash soap and conditioner from my hair and still had residue. Found a dried blood stain on bathroom floor. Overall, not bad, up to date decor, but the smoke was getting to me, the awful lack of water in the shower and dried blood stain on floor."
