This is a beautiful resort that is well situated near the beach. The staff were amazing. I loved the fact that they offer free swimming lessons. There are different dining options, two of the restaurants limited to adults only which I couldn’t go to due to having kids with us. I would definitely stay here again.

excellent place. Extremely good location to beach and next door, PrideInn, where you csn dine at their buffet and access their pool for a low price. Mosquitoes were an issue, nightly. Bettet sealed windows and fixing the boarded living room doors would help. Bathrooms were not very clean.
