For a family of 5 we had an amazing time, staff responded SO QUICK to any concerns or questions, the place was quiet when needed to be and the pool and rooms were so clean the only thing I wish was the location was a little closer to the physical boardwalk it’s a 40 min walk to the pier . However amazing and was super happy with our stay
