We stayed here for three days, and have zero complaints. We had a balcony room overlooking the pool and beach and it was beautiful! Our room was only a couple of doors away from the elevators, so I was concerned we might hear people coming and going but I never heard a single person go by our door. Same with the pool - some places you stay where you can see the pool means you hear people partying in the pool all night, but it was completely quiet! The staff were helpful and polite. And my daughter LOVED the ice cream bar downstairs! We easily walked to restaurants and shopping, but there’s a trolley if you want to go further away. Absolutely will stay here again!

This is an excellent hotel and a great place for families with small children. When we visited they had a pirate and a mermaid at the lazy river pool for the kids to enjoy, live music, and a great restaurant in the hotel. You can easily walk to several stores, the beach and other nearby restaurants. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We loved it.
