Was at the Waldorf last week and it was truly an amazing experience. Probably the best service I've ever had at a hotel. The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful with respect to kosher. I got upgraded to the Dos Mares suite which was an incredible room. The proximity to chabad also makes the hotel a great choice. Even though it's a 5 hour flight from NYC, I wouldn't hesitate to use FNC again at this hotel.

Yeah, food was fine. Nothing spectacular but it tasted good. The dairy restaurant was a letdown for me though.

Thinking of going there for part of Pesach. Is it a complete waste of points to stay at the WA over Shabbos/YT, as far as enjoying the amenities goes?

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

swimming with the dolphins is awesome if you're into that. they'll let you do a lot more than they will north of the border.
ATV'ing was epic. I arranged it through the frum guy upthread, was just my wife and myself on the 'group' tour, along a deserted beach toward sunset. same place does horseback riding.
