The staff was super friendly! The outside of hotel and room was really clean but the stairs and hallways looked liked they hadn't be swept or vacuumed in a while. Overall I enjoyed our stay very much. This was our 2nd time staying here.

4.6/5Wonderful! (606 reviews)

Our stay at the Henderson was one of the best vacations we've ever had. The resort was large enough that were able to maintain our distance from others. The walk to the beach was short. The beach was clean and the beach staff were friendly. All the staff were friendly, helpful and professional. There are lots of food choices and all of them are wonderful. We didn't leave the resort at all. We had all we needed on the property. There were a few missing features that were surprising. There aren't any pens/notepads in the room, which would have come in handy because our flights were changed. There was no ice or ice machines, and there was no towel bar in the bathroom. Those are minor things that didn't affect our trip at all. We were just surprised they were missing details. We will definitely be back to The Henderson. It's a great place for families and adults!
