10/10 Excellent
"The food was fresh, all restaurants offered a wide variety of food selections, and they always asked about allergies. They also asked guests to sanitize their hands prior to being seated (loved that!). The staff is friendly and accommodating. Room service had a lot of options and was delivered promptly, even during late hours of the night. The resort offers free chairs and umbrellas on a first come first serve basis so you have to be there early to take advantage of those. The entertainment could use a little revamp but other than that everything was great."
