8.4/10 Very Good! (130 reviews)

Spacious condo in timeshare resort. Staff was efficient and friendly. Grounds were clean. Units themselves are pretty dated and look like they were furnished in the 70s. Better than staying at a mid range hotel in the area for the money.

We loved our stay! We wish we would have gotten the suite we thought we booked, also we were unaware of one of the pools being shut down for the holiday - but overall we had an amazing time! The staff is so friendly and all smiles.
