Resort was great and location was beautiful. The indoor pool area had a very strong aroma of chlorine and was poorly ventilated. As a result of spending only 15 minutes there, I had a terrible reaction causing strong cold symptoms (sneezing, running nose, etc) that lasted 3-4 days afterward. Not fun to deal with for the remainder of my vacation!
