![]() There were so many little extra touches such as the elaborately decorated cookies with the Santa VIP meeting. It was the most wonderful experience! From check-in to check-out it was a jolly time with absolutely not glitches! We felt spoiled. What a game-changer! Jeffrey has only been at the Hilton Anatole a few months, but I think they have hit the jackpot with him! He assured me if we gave them another chance, we would not be sorry. But in November I called one more time, and I was directed to Jeffrey the Director of Recreation and Wellness. The outdoor space is plenty big and they could do so much more to make this event better.We have done Christmas at the Anatole for years with our grandchildren, and to be honest, after last year, we began looking for a new experience. They need to either lower their prices or revamp a way better event next year. Again, my children did have fun, we just won't be going back if the prices remain the same next year. The Gaylord would actually be worth your money. You purchase the passes at a station in the center of the park so if you do go, don't buy all the adults in your group a $20 adult pass! Overall, if you are looking for a fun Christmas experience, I recommend the Gaylord. 50 cents they couldn't give her just 1 more dinky little ornament to paint? Also, as I mentioned we paid $40 for the adult wristbands, which we were NEVER asked to show. The employee told her she could "just paint over it!" I was baffled.for what probably cost them less than. I don't know who was in charge of that, but since this is for children.why not provide washable paint?!?!? Then my daughters hand accidentally got shoved while she was painting so she walked up to the employee working the station to politely ask for another ornament. The games were a JOKE, just silly things like tossing a ring etc.! The craft was painting a little wooden ornament in which acrylic paints were provided! ACRYLIC! This will NOT come out if it gets on clothing. The shows were honestly lame, (maybe entertaining for a 2 year old at best). I could have set this whole event up in my back yard. The Fun Pass allows you to attend 4 shows, a train ride, play 6 games, and do a craft! EVERYTHING was very underwhelming. It's that we paid over $100 for what really is a $40 experience. So it's not that my children did not have fun. Now, keep in mind, I am comparing our experience to what we paid. So the total was a little of $100 dollars. There is a Memory Maker Fun Pass for $50, but we were not willing to spend that especially once we got there, the "park" did not seem worth that. I thought going to peppermint park would be an exciting, new thing to do with the kids! We purchased 2 Fun Passes for the kids at $30 each!! And 2 adult passes for $20 each. I don't know who was in charge of that, but since this is for children.why not provide washable paint?!?!? Then my daughters hand accidentally got shoved while she was painting so she walked up to the employee working the station to politely ask for. ![]()
