"This place exceeded expectations on all levels, over the top customer service, not one bad meal at any restaurant or bar, top service at all the pools and the spa was very nice. The only thing I'd say I was not a fan of was the surprise additional "resort fees" that I paid with Expedia and then with the resort directly. It was not explained upfront very well. Other than that the stay was perfect."

"Wonderful property. Friendly staff. They made sure I had a pac and's play for my grandbaby waiting in the unit. I had a small leak under sink and I called and they sent someone to repair in 10 min. Maid service was excellent. They allowed an early check in that really appreciated as well. My family loves salt water pool. Also they loved the little park too. The 7 year old and 3 Year old loved it all. Our stay was wonderful. We’ll be back!!!"
