The room was very clean and the Front Desk Staff very helpful, the kitchen in the room was accommodating even though it was not what we asked for and the location of our room was great.
My group was myself and my mother and two children. We had a wonderful time there! The staff was all very friendly in the hotel and the water park area! If you want a quick, easy trip with kiddos I definitely recommend!

Our kids had a blast. The staff are so friendly. The rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. We got to check in early at 12 and our room was ready. The next day we checked out at 11 but got to stay the whole day at the waterpark. Will definitely be back in summer for the outdoor pools etc.
Clean rooms next time I'll get a bigger room. Ask for a extra pillow and cover and received hours later after we were asleep. Check in was easy . Bathrooms were everywhere and very clean .
It’s ok if you go on a deal. My kids had fun and there are tons of places to eat off the property. The rooms are older. Also they don’t come to the rooms but will come if you text. Decent hotel to stay at
Clean room, conveniently located near shopping centers and restaurants just a short drive away. Waterpark was an amazing option in the winter months. Enjoyed the hot pool very much. Only suggestion is better security. Children shouldn’t be allowed to create chaos without adult supervision. Security should be roaming the hallways the gym the pool etc. I have kids not trying to keep them from having fun. Just making sure they don’t kill each other in the process. Specially, swinging the dumbbells at each other at the gym.
Men’s dirty Hanes underwear right below our balcony on roof of exterior restaurant/bar upon check-in at 4 pm. A great view for my 7 year old’s birthday room. Vomit in lagoon basketball hot tub pool and no one evacuated pool. Poop in wave pool, was cleaned, and only evacuated for 30 minutes. The staff is extremely friendly and they all need raises.
The staff was very friendly rooms, hallways, and restaurant areas were very clean .
Parking was overall good the only extreme bad thing about the place. They have the worst mattresses and extremely worst pillows ever.
Very uncomfortable
Clean room, kids enjoyed the indoor waterpark, would stay again.

Disliked: Amenities
Reasonably clean room. Parking was free. Pool was below average for the cost of a "resort". Outdoor pool was closed all week so indoor pool was massively overcrowded. 100% not worth the $$ compared to other hotels in the area.
Very good pool, indoor water park, clean, fresh and staff was excellent in accommodating our needs. Outside park was not open so that disappointed kids but they had a blast using all the slides/surfer and wave pool indoor :)
We have a great stay. It was great to see the staff really cared about people being safe at the waterpark and had a good time. It was great to see the staff being nice and teaching kids how to do the surf rider without getting mad.
