Holly

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Room was on ground floor and had a very bad damp/musty smell, the room does not get zero sunlight. Speed bumps coming into the resort need to be re painted with the white stripes extremely hard to notice speed bumps. Overall I spent approximately 30 mins in the room and had to check out snd leave due to allergies from the damp/ musty smell. Disappointing for $173

Although we were just transitting through and only had one night this was the highlight of our journey. The spaciousness of reception areas, dining and bar are unusual these days. Our grandchildren enjoyed the pool, slide and the games area. Rooms were also large and well catered. Very clean, very welcoming and easy parking.
