This is the way place for families, the pool kept them entertained all day long! The staff were extremely friendly, there are different buffets and restaurants. I do wish that they had a policy for the pool chairs, people will put towels on them and leave almost all day and not use them. Overall we had a fantastic time and can’t wait to come back!

"Overall the property provided good value. The staff were pleasant and very helpful and management was engaging. The beach was very excellent. Also there were enough places to stay out of the sun both around the pools and on the beach. The only drawback that I could comment on would be the slow service ..."
