Food was great. Pool and beach are nice. Gym is really basic and has a weird smell; not great for a property of this caliber.

Everything associated with the facility, the rooms, the front desk staff, housekeeping, bell staff and pool/recreational rentals was exceptional. We weren't impressed with food service in any aspect but the rest of our stay was perfect. We definitely want to return.

Wonderful resort

Very clean resort with lots of amenities. Room was spacious and well kept. Restaurants inside were wonderful and poolside bar was too. Movies at night in the pool were a hit with kids! Definitely would recommend this resort to anyone.
