5/5 Excellent

"The hotel is great we loved our stay. Everything was very clean, the air conditioning worked very well, breakfast was good, pool/splash pad was amazing. They give you complementary beach chairs at the beach with your stay which was nice to have. The area had tons to do food places mini golf, arcades, etc.. nothing was to far to drive or take the bus. The beds were also super comfortable which was nice being away from home. We will absolutely be back "
