What we lived is what you see when choosing this place, is what you get. The convenience of having places to chose to eat from and not leave the property. The pools and all the seats. How helpful and friendly the staff was in different areas, even when it was extremely hot. Overall, we just love the place and will be back with our adult children. Only down side, was the annoying neighbor; which had 4 or 5 kids running , slamming things in hallway and being extremely loud with all the yelling. Nothing was done about that. Out of the 2 nights we stayed , both nights they made a lot of noise till 1am. So we did not get great sleep.

Family friendly. Pool was great for kids but I would’ve liked a section for adults to be able to stretch comfortably in the pool. Great place to stay!

All staff was superior! They were so nice, and accommodating. The hotel is beautiful, with a very relaxing pool area. The gym has everything you need for a good daily workout. The grounds are nicely kept. I will miss Marge and Izzy as our servers at the pool. For a girls trip of 6, the front desk staff were very helpful and responsive to everything we needed. We really enjoyed our stay!

The property was great. The view and the landscaping was spectacular. My only concern was there was an ongoing construction and we were not informed until we checked in. The construction was right on top of our room from 9am till 6pm and it was really loud. The hotel gave us a free buffet breakfast to compensate with this. Overall, it was still a good overnight stay :)
