Overall I was excited to stay again at this resort for a second time but will probably not return after we had a “insect issue” that was resolved but didn’t get much credit for… I paid a nice amount of money to stay there so I was a bit disappointed they didn’t extend some type of credit or reimbursement.

I was extremely comfortable here, and I enjoyed the pool variety and the affordable waterpark. The rooms were nice and clean and so comfortable. I’m vegan and I did manage finding things to eat although it could’ve been a little bit better and the price is in the grocery store were a little high. But I guess you have to pay for a great time.
