Gorgeous property amazing for big groups and family reunions. Downside is walls are paper thin and a couple above us was loudly intimate through the night and we had children in our room below us. No one was available at the front desk to help keep them quiet so we just didn’t sleep well and it’s super uncomfortable for what felt like a family friendly spot. Staff offered a late checkout but we were already planning to leave at original checkout time so we didn’t accept that offer to make things right. The resort has a lot of potential if they upgrade the customer experience.
