I liked that everything was on property and we didn’t need to go out. Staff was helpful and seemed like they were trying (not sure their cheerfulness was 100% genuine- tbh) Outside the walkway by the ocean was dark and a bit scary- we only walked a short distance. The valet and the bell service were AWESOME
