The Omni Homestead Resort

My husband and I have worked in the hotel industry for over 30years. This resort, BY FAR, has the most amenities and friendliest staff we've ever experienced. Their recent renovations made everything fresh & new, even though it is a very historic property. This is the perfect place for couples, groups of friends or families. There is truly something for everyone. We can't wait to return over the winter holidays to experience the resort in a totally different season!

The resort is beautiful and there were plenty of activities for my children to enjoy. However, with the rates I paid for the room, I never imagined how much the Omni would nickel and dime me for all the extras. Food, even with the kids eat free or 50% off promotion, cost me almost $100 each time I sat down. Want a drink - $42 after tax and tip for two 12 ounce drinks. Buffet breakfast for $40 an adult is theft. $39 plus tax per night for me to self park my own car and walk to the resort with my luggage is outrageous. Two bottled soda's, two bottled juices, and two packs of M&M's from the Market was nearly $30. I ended up going to the local store to purchase snacks to avoid going broke. For the resort stay price I paid and then to have to pay all those extras is a shame. Additionally, the public bathrooms were often out of soap, the floors were dirty, soda machines didn't work to get drinks in the Picnic Pavilion, and the beds were hard as a rock. There were not enough chairs at the pool for guests. A chair was broken and a worker took it away, but came back and said they were out of chairs, so I was left standing at the pool while my kids swam. Pool towels - bring your own as they ran out several times even when the pools were busy. Want a tube for the lazy river, bring your own as they only have what appeared to be 20-25 rafts. I know bugs happen outside, but the resort has an overwhelming amount of bugs that swarm you outside. I understand the resort attracts people with various lifestyles and incomes, but I never imagined the costs I would endure by visiting. There were many other guests that were complaining about the outrageous costs of visiting. This will likely be my one and only visit to the resort because of how outrageous the costs were.

Amazing staff and service - Maddie and Karen are expectational they went above and beyond for my wife and my son who were celebrating a memorable birthday. The staff throughout the hotel is excellent and the entire resort is top notch and a great place for a family vacation. The Food and Beverage is excellent and unique regarding menu options. The Executive Chef and General Manger are hands on and assisted us during our stay.

Beautiful hotel on beautiful grounds. Staff was very attentive, professional and friendly. Resort was very well kept. We throughly enjoyed our stay!
