We like the fact that the restaurants are all close together so we could walk to each one of them and we also liked the food. What we didn't like was the fact that one of the pools was very very hot otherwise everything was super.
Everything was amazing! We will definitely be back!!

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Staff & service
The front desk manger was very rude. Not helpful when our bag was taken by the pool, even went as far to blame it on us. She had no empathy at all.
Food was less than great. We have had an upset stomach very 5 days now. We will not return.
