We had a wonderful stay at this resort. The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable, making for a great night’s sleep. We also appreciated the breakfast buffet, which offered a good variety and made mornings easy. The highlight of our trip was definitely the lazy river — it was so relaxing and added to the whole resort experience. Overall, it was a very enjoyable stay, and we’d happily return!

Very family friendly. Many dining options close by. About what you would expect for the price. Not a 3 1/2 star hotel, more like 2 1/2 star. Breakfast was underwhelming.

We like the staff and convenience. Unfortunately, the first room we went to did not ever have completed maid service. They upgraded the room but the tub had poor drainage and the water took forever to heat up. Other than that the new room was clean, the air was working well, and the beds were comfortable.
