Nice resort. It’s pretty spread out, so you’ll want to consider which room you choose and how far you’re willing to walk. Our initial room was really far from the pool on the other side of the property, so we upgraded to a suite next to the pool. Other than that, the staff were really friendly and the room was clean.
