Customer Reviews:
Still a great game despite its age, 2007-09-15 I purchased the Beach Life version (identical as far as I can tell) when it was still brand new and am still enjoying it today. It is a welcome break over the near monopoly that Maxis/EA has over the Simulation genre with the Sims and Sim City series.
While the graphics are par for what was released around that time, it was the gameplay that kept me hooked. Sure it had its faults, but with a small learning curve, I was building resorts like a pro in no time. I personally don't like sim games that you can breeze straight through and a couple of the scenarios did have me retrying them a few times before finally passing them.
The music in the game is pretty good for the game, mimicking something you may here in Cancun or Ibiza, changing tempos between daylight and nighttime hours. And the sound effects are a nice touch as well from the vomiting of drunk guests and splashing at the pool to the sizzle of burgers on the beach grill.
