This resort suits me perfectly! With amenities like free parking, a relaxing outdoor hot tub, and a fantastic indoor pool, I always have what I need. The staff once helped me find my forgotten earphones, making my stay memorable. I'll be back for Christmas!

Would recommend for a weekend pause

Spacious room, comfortable bed, with convenient amenities like free wi-fi and an indoor swimming pool for relaxation after exploring.

Pleasant Dining Experience. Rooms Need Improvement

Our family enjoyed a fantastic meal at the Tavern Restaurant, with every dish impressively crafted! Service was prompt, and we had fun playing giant checkers in the garden. However, the room left much to be desired. For future visitors, I recommend enjoying the food but considering local accommodations for a better stay.

Expect Better from a So-Called Resort

So we stayed here for 4 nights in a Culinary King room which was actually quite spacious and had a comfy bed and the spa was surprisingly well designed with a nice flow to it also loved the indoor pool which was not crowded at all

It wasn't inexpensive but you know what they say you get what you pay for

I really enjoyed my stay, especially the large, comfy room and the memorable cocktails at the tavern! The heated indoor pool and relaxing hot tub were great for unwinding after a long day. Just a heads-up, the room could use a bit more storage space, but overall it was an awesome experience! 😊

The Essex Resort & Spa has a warm and inviting atmosphere, with beautifully decorated common areas and thoughtful accessibility features for seniors. The fitness center was easy to navigate, and the outdoor gardens were simply lovely.

Improved Wi-Fi speed would enhance the experience.

The Essex Resort & Spa features stunning gardens filled with vibrant flowers and tranquil seating areas. The Culinary King room we stayed in was spacious and cozy, with a kitchenette that made it easy to prepare meals. The staff were friendly, and the atmosphere felt warm and inviting, perfect for a relaxing getaway.

Wi-Fi speed could use improvement for better connectivity.

a memorable honeymoon experience with caring staff and revitalizing massages

Honeymooning was amazing. Staff truly cared and ambiance was perfect for relaxation.

my stay here was a pleasant surprise. the atmosphere felt warm and inviting, making it ideal for a romantic date. last time in essex was decent, but this resort truly exceeded my expectations with its charming decor and lovely gardens.

the wi-fi was frustratingly slow.

Loved the tranquil atmosphere! The outdoor gardens were absolutely lovely 🌼. Just a heads-up, the wifi was really slow, which was a bit frustrating.

The stay was highlighted by excellent, friendly staff and spacious accommodations. The Culinary King room offered comfort, though a reading lamp near the chairs would have been a nice addition. Dinner on the patio, while enjoyable, suffered from cold wind and less-than-ideal cooking on the salmon. Overall, a peaceful getaway that I would gladly revisit, potentially for a longer visit next time.

Relaxing, Relaxing, Relaxing

I just had the most amazing time at this resort! The culinary king room was so beautifully decorated with cozy touches and an inviting atmosphere. The indoor pool is massive and warm-the perfect spot to unwind after a fun day of cooking classes and garden strolls!

Would recommend! 😊❤️

The Essex had charming amenities like a lovely restaurant and a spacious pool area. However, the room cleanliness and some service hiccups left a bit to be desired. It would be great if they focused more on maintenance and staff training to enhance the experience.
