Great resort. The only issue I encountered is everything you order at the restaurants is charged to your room. It helps not having to carry cash or credit cards but it’s hard to keep track of your spending.

Loved, and would come back!
It was amazing and the staff was so lovely! The only complaint may be that the pool area got way overcrowded the last day - but it’s also a family friendly resort with a lot of kids so what can you expect!

Very pleased with our stay at this resort. The harbor side had an amazing view. We watched the sunrise from our balcony and the dolphins entertained us.In the evenings we walked to the beach to watch the beautiful sunset. everything you need is right on the property. Several restaurants and beautiful pools including one with two waterslides. Would definitely recommend and plan on going back and the future

Quiet this time of year, very relaxing. Beautiful pool area, great beach, excellent Dolphin watching right outside our room and on the marina walkway. Excellent dining however only on dinner hour option on site. Some of the areas are a little dated and need updating, lighting on the marina walkway was poor as some of the lights were out. Staff everywhere was very friendly, provision store, bars, restaurants etc. Definitely recommend renting a golf cart. All and all very happy with our choice of destination and would go again!
