The only “bad thing” I can say was the lagoon pool (is it even a pool?) was hotter than a hot tub. The pool was lukewarm. Maybe that’s just south Texas, but you would assume a large property like that could afford a pool chiller of some sort. Other than that, the hotel and staff were amazing! So close to the beach. Restaurant on property with food stands and bars for the parents. Would definitely come back and maybe just skip the pool next time and head straight for the beach.
