Privacy not so much.

The waterpark has been updated which is nice other than one slide visibly cracking. We stayed in a king suite and the fireplace was “shut off for the season” that was disappointing. Our room also had a huge gap from the floor to the door anyone could have seen in the room, we had to shove towels in the door for privacy and prevent light.
