We’ve stayed here multiple times and always return. The staff has become friends, remembering your name from previous years, the food in specialty dining is great, beach is beautiful, and the convenience to shopping and entertainment outside of the resort keeps us coming back.

Great hotel. Very clean and well maintained. We weren’t really expecting it to be party central and quite so loud. If you’re looking for low key and more relaxing, this probably isn’t the place for you. If you don’t mind that, they had a lot of activities and their entertainment crew kept the fun going. The bathroom not having a fan made it a little stuffy but not a huge deal - just something that stood out. Overall we had a great experience.
