Margaritaville Hotel Kansas City
10/10 Excellent
"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had a fantastic stay at Margaritaville in Kansas City, Kansas! The property is brand new (less than six months old), and it truly shows—everything was extremely clean and beautifully maintained. Our room was very spacious and comfortable, which made our stay even more enjoyable.
The indoor pool was a huge hit, especially for our child. There were fun activities for kids, and the arcade was modern, clean, and easy to use. It was great to have so many family-friendly options all in one place.
We also had dinner at the restaurant, and the food was amazing. The crab cakes and shrimp scampi were delicious and exceeded our expectations. To top off the evening, our child loved ending the night with an activity at the kids’ activity center.
Every single staff member we encountered was friendly, helpful, and genuinely kind—always smiling and willing to assist. That level of service really stood out and made the experience even better.
We will definitely be back and highly recommend this property to families and anyone looking for a clean, fun, and relaxing stay."
"The hotel was wonderful, clean and friendly staff. The breakfast is not a big deal but enough to start the day. Its located near too many good places to eat and walk aroun. 100 recommended. It was oir second time there. This time, much better. "
