This is our go to place to stay when we go to Orlando, made a mistake one time not staying here, but will never do that again. Everything is just all around excellent, the girls at the desk could use a little customer training, smiles, little more friendliness but other than that I’m not going to give beyond excellent because I’ve stayed here so do many times

It was a nice place to stay. When we check in at first our room on the bottom floor was flooded because of rain. So they change into a different room which we are happy with that. Maintenance man was very nice to help us out to change room.

We had a truly disappointing and distressing experience during our recent stay. The management was unprofessional and confrontational, and the lifeguards—many of whom appeared young and untrained—were on clear power trips. They were even laughing and celebrating after calling the police and shutting down the pool, which created a traumatic situation for our children. At no point were our kids destroying property, despite what management claimed. Even the police officers on scene disagreed with the staff’s version of events but were obligated to act due to the manager’s behavior. This situation was escalated unnecessarily, and it was clear the issue stemmed from poor staff conduct, not from guests. To make matters worse, the room we stayed in smelled strongly of mold, raising concerns about cleanliness and air quality. I urge ownership to take a hard look at who is representing their property. Management and lifeguard staff need to be reevaluated, and facility maintenance clearly needs attention. What happened was unacceptable and not something any family should have to endure on vacation
