Liked: Staff & service, amenities
We stayed in a one bedroom, on the 1st level. Amenities were great. All the pools and game rooms were enjoyable.In a good location. The only bad thing is on my last day, seen a German roach in the kitchen.
We arrived around 4pm for check in and it happened to be the busiest day of the yr. So we had to wait an hr for a room, but that was no problem because they gave us a pool pass and free snack while we waited. We only waited an hr and after that is was smooth sailing! The rooms were clean. The staff was so nice. It was conveniently located near shopping and activities. They had things to do for my 16yr old and also my 1yr old. My family loved their stay. I would definitely recommend this place! We already cant wait for next year!
This trip was a start to a family get together. That we are going to start every year. This resort started our family get together and my family and I enjoyed it very much even our grandma who we also celebrated her birthday she also enjoyed herself. Thank you so much for making a first start to our family get together a memory not to forget.
Staff were very friendly, the room was very spacious and clean. The pools were not over crowded and they offered a shuttle to take to the pier. Highly recommend and will return.
My family and I loved the stay. We stayed in the two bedroom loft. It was super spacious for all 3 adults and 7 kids. The staff was super friendly. The indoor, outdoor, lazy river and kiddie pool was are favorites. Everything was so nicely kept. Definitely will be returning!!
It was such a great deal for the price. Great spacious room with a river outside our balcony. The kids fed the geese and Turtles every morning. Pool, lazy river, indoor pool, sauna, activity center, and the staff was super friendly and helpful.
We would definitely go there again.
This place is like a home away from home they have everything you need if you need it and don’t want to leave the place great amenities like indoor outdoor pool arcade activities etc
The rooms was very nice and clean the staff was nice had a great time and would definitely go back was actually quite surprised how nice it was and was not expecting it to be that good overall I enjoyed my stay there
The room was comfortable and clean and the outdoor pool was great. The shuttle to the beach was convenient. The one downside is that no restaurants were really within walking distance of the rooms.
