Renaissance Shoals Resort & Spa

What guests think

Renaissance Shoals Resort & Spa earns high praise for exceptionally friendly, accommodating staff and attractive, updated rooms, while some stays were affected by ongoing renovations that temporarily closed amenities like the pool or venues and created occasional noise.

Guests frequently note clean accommodations and scenic river views, though a few report pests, a running toilet, or uncomfortable bedding. Dining is generally enjoyable with popular spots like 360 Grille, but some note slow service and unclear pricing. Expect a comfortable, service-forward stay with possible renovation-related inconveniences.

Check in was great. Dinner reservations at 360 were awesome. Enjoyed the hot tub. No view of the pool as stated in rsvp. Brought Beignets from 360. In the morning we woke to ANTS. A whole lot of them! Yuck!

Waste of money to stay here for our anniversary. No pool, in room dining took an hour, wouldn’t allow us a late checkout in between our checkout and spa experience since we couldn’t use any other facility amenities we had to leave the property and kill time to come back to the spa. Then can’t use the spa whirlpool because of lighting? Got stuck at 360 grille because they turned off the elevators as we were leaving to test fire alarms. Not worth the $1000 we spent in 24 hours.

We did not know the renovation was happening and had planned dinner in the swampers bar, and it was entirely closed inside and out, and certainly did not know the pool was under renovation and completely closed as well. Rams are beautiful and certainly appreciated that nice surprise with them being renovated.

The valets were very nice and hospitable. So were the staff at the front desk. My room was not as clean as it should have been. In the bathroom, I found hair droppings from the previous guest and around the commode was residue of previous guest. The AC was extremely cold to me. I tried to adjust it, even up to 85 degrees and it still remained extremely cold. I had to just turn it off to be able to stay in the room. As for breakfast, you advertise a vegetarian/vegan menu, but no printable menu exist. Would loved to have known what was available besides what was on the breakfast buffet So for breakfast, I paid $25 for 3 items off the breakfast buffet, which I did not know the cost until I finished breakfast. I did notice someone cooking at the entrance of the restaurant, but being there for the first time, I did not know whether I could have something cooked nor did I know what could be cooked. NO waiter was immediately available to help me and the room was not busy. However, I received attention from someone of the kitchen staff, who was eager to assist me, as I was pressed for time. I do try not to complain. However, I suggest being more transparent concerning pricing for meals and what is available. As you advertise a vegetarian/vegan menu, we need to know what is available. Kind regards.

It was my husband and mine 22nd wedding anniversary so we wanted to do a small getaway. When we arrived, everyone greeted us with smiles and very welcoming. Very clean and a wonderful atmosphere. We didn’t have a reservation to the 360 grille until 8:30, so we grabbed drinks and appetizers in the hotel restaurant “Swampers”. I will certainly be back to the Marriott Shoals. The beds were comfy, rooms were clean, and the stay was relaxing. I rarely looked at my phone and didn’t even take photos because we were just enjoying the amenities the Marriott had to offer and just enjoying ourselves. We will be back!

EVERYTHING was great. We've traveled most of the world and found one of our best hotel experiences just a few hours up the road. The staff was remarkably friendly and helpful but not falsely so. Quick story: one reason for this trip was to get away on the anniversary of our adult son's death. We casually mentioned this to our server at breakfast. That night, when we got back to our room, there was a vase of fresh flowers, a nice personal note, and coupons for a couple of breakfast buffets. Yes, it is a bit expensive but we have visited plenty of expensive hotels that treated us like we were lucky to be in their presence. Not this one!
