Great location for beach proximity and served us well for a short vacation. We went in February and many amenities such as kids activities were lacking which made it feel like less of a resort experience. But overall kids had a great time in pool, hot tub and arcade.

First off when you check in they are going to hit you with a bunch of fees. The rooms are outdated and kind of run down. They seem to spend the money on the koi ponds and landscaping. If you get room 162 just refuse it and get another room. They start moving garbage bins at 5am and they are so loud it sounds like they are moving the cart through your room. How they don’t have pneumatic tires on those carts to quiet them down is beyond me. Spa is way over priced. We went down town and found massages for half price. This place is serviceable but definitely leave a lot to be desired.
