Not one review about how this is a CRUISE SHIP property. It’s ridiculous for people not associated with the cruise. Otherwise beautiful location and comfy room. Room service would’ve made a world of difference. They make you park very from from the room and take a shuttle around the property that can take an hour to get to you absolutely ridiculous.
