Calypso’s Pool Bar & Grille — Restaurant in Florida

Aisha and Tami were more worried about getting off their shift than taking care of guests. But why would bartenders put effort in when gratuity is already included? Would’ve loved to leave extra gratuity for Royce but then realized my check is rang under Aisha who failed to even acknowledge us after five minutes. Thanks to Royce for doing his best making our drinks while having to read the recipe book. Great personality and so engaging! Aisha was too busy having an attitude while Tami was stuffing her face with food right behind the bar..talk about major health code violation . Coming from someone who runs a restaurant, this behavior is absolutely unacceptable and I will NOT be back. Would expect more from a “top rated” hotel. Witnessed Aisha being extremely rude to a table asking for help while Tami told a coworker “he can wait a minute” instead of acknowledging the customer when there were NO other...

I kind of wish i could give this place 0*. First of all, its thr only thing open late night after you get out of the theme parks, so you're stuck between this and the "cafe" downstairs. Thats another story.

If you decide to sit at the tables, good luck getting service. I sit here looking at maybe 15 tables, 5 occupied, that are covered by two floating servers....who can never be found. Twice now I just wanted to grab a bite to eat only to be ignored for 20-30m. Ordering at the bar, i was asked if i want takeout...which i didnt, hence why i was sitting at a table.

So after sitting there for 25 minutes, i order at the bar....just to find theres a 16% gratuity added to my bill automatically! Amazing. Absolute minimum, begrudging service but I am forced to tip!

Tl;dr - go across the street and get a $3 breakfast...

I’ve been to Calypso’s a couple of times while staying at the Caribe Royale, and it’s always such a great experience! The service is friendly and fast, and the atmosphere by the pool makes it the perfect place to relax. The first time, I ordered the chicken quesadillas with french fries, guacamole, and a piña colada. Everything was delicious and super fresh. The second time I had their fish sandwich with chips, guacamole, and of course another piña colada. Both meals were amazing! Whether you’re grabbing lunch by the pool or just looking to unwind with a good drink, Calypso’s is definitely...
