1. I absolutely agree with most of the complaints I have now read on this website: the check-in form is tacky, as is the nickel and diming for gratuities/coffee/etc.

2. This obviously is not a big deal, but is illustrative of how tacky the itemization is at a supposedly all-inclusive resort.

3. KVR has a lovely layout and many enjoyable complimentary activities, but the resort is most definitely NOT 'all-inclusive', and the manner in which the resort itemizes various add-ons (including gratuities, drinks, snacks, and even certain menu items at meal times) is quite tacky.

4. Finally, we thought it was somewhat tacky to charge for gratuity and beverages, considering the exhorbitant rates you pay per night.
