We would definitely go back to The Essex Resort. Beautiful grounds, clean and cozy room and friendly staff.

Niland United States of America

Great facilites and decor - close to downtown Burlington but liked the quiet setting with the gardens and pool

Winslow United States of America

Beautiful resort! Very family friendly, wonderful food and the spa was so relaxing!

Laticia United States of America

The site was beautiful and every part of the property was well maintained. Check in was easy, staff at front desk was great! Tavern food was delish, but service was a bit slow…probably due to labor shortages?

Charlene United States of America

The grounds were absolutely beautiful! Liked that our room was changed to a much nicer room after complaining about the issues of our original room.

Paula United States of America

Check in was smooth. Room was very clean and spacious. I wish I stayed longer to take advantage more of what was offered, as I just stayed for the night and was passing through. But it is highly likely I will return to stay for a weekend.

Noah United States of America

It was my birthday and the staff sent me a surprise dessert. That was so impressive and lovely. Also the highlight of my stay was the hot tub. I throughly enjoyed the experience. I got a chance to dine at the tavern and the food and drinks were truly amazing. Evening bonfire was wonderful too.

Akshay United States of America

I can't wait to come back for a longer stay! We had such a wonderful time in your beautiful resort.

Jennsturnnow United States of America

the spa is amazing and really nice that all of it is accessible to the guests. the food at the tavern was really good for dinner. wish those at front desk were more informative. we were not given any info about the spa or that it was available to us even on days we didn’t have treatment so we missed one who day of use of facilities. staff at front desk didn’t tell us about need to make reservations for breakfast at the tavern. In general I didn’t feel like the front desk staff really gave us much information but the place is wonderful and really really enjoyable. Perhaps front desk staff could get better training? Just to provide more information about the area and what you could do at the resort for new guests.
