Came back after being out for the day and our keys would not work on our door. Had to end up moving to another room, and once there, every time the room above us turned on the shower or tub, the running water was so loud you couldn’t sleep.

We had an excellent 3-night stay here. Very kid-friendly, our kids had a blast. Everything was so clean. Indoor pool was large and warm. The beach and view are beautiful. Clean towels provided at pool and beach area. Small tub of beach toys available for the kids to use. The staff were friendly and helpful! Free breakfast each morning was a nice touch with a large selection of food options and delicious coffee! We plan to be back!

Loved our 1st floor lake view jacuzzi room. Breakfast was great with many choices. Only thing I would change would be to have a freezer in the refrigerator to keep ice packs frozen. Would definitely stay here again!

Would stay here again. Originally, they did not honor my request for a king size bed; however, when their error was pointed out, the staff member offered us an upgrade as there were no other king sized bedrooms available. We ended up in a lovely beachside room. The sunsets were amazing.
This shot was from our balcony.
