Loved this hotel, everything was so amazing and so clean. The room was perfect as well as the pools. Check in was great and staff was amazing everyone was so helpful and nice. Love the big pool it had a giant screen tv and my husband got to enjoy a football game. 10000% recommend booking here.
We had a great 4 day weekend! The two bedroom accommodations were wonderful. The kitchen had all the amenities for cooking your own meals. The pools were clean amd the food was amazing. The staff took care of our every wish! We will definitely be back!
The stay was great the renovation is going well I got a chance to stay in a renovated room and it was beautiful. Pools are great friendly staff all around .
We spent 3 nights here for our end of summer vacation. I was a little bummed one of the pool areas was closed due to construction, I must have missed that memo. However, the areas that were open were plenty fun for my kiddos. Loved everything about the resort, the room was clean. definitely had a wonderful time and already planning on returning for spring break ! Shuttle staff was wonderful, kitchen was well stocked and the washer and dryer in the unit were a great convenience.
We had so much fun very kids friendly all the stuffs were great only one this I would recommend is they need to clean the pool all the time so much junk floating

Great location - pools were perfect, we had a great family vacation.
This resort was way more than we expected! Amazing experience will defiantly come back! All the staff was very helpful. Property was clean. Amenities were great!
The property is nice but dated. Rooms definitely are great for families but need a facelift. Towels are no longer provided at pool and you have to take what is given in the room which is an inconvenience imo. Pools were murky and packed. Lots of outside wagons and towels at pool which makes me think a lot of locals vs hotel guests. My kids love it but it’s just meh for me.
The property is nice enough…just older. So I thought the price was high for the time of year and condition of property. The pools were extremely crowded but okay. We were told we couldn’t use our own pool floats but people were. HOWEVER…they had a GREAT Italian restaurant called Giuseppe’s which serves Chicago deep dish pizza. So we may not say at this location again but we will definitely go back to the restaurant!
We had a wonderful stay! We’ve been coming to this property with our family for over five summers, and the newly renovated villas completely exceeded our expectations. From the moment we opened the door to our two-bedroom villa, we were blown away by how modern, sleek, spacious, and beautifully updated everything was. The villa was very clean and comfortable, and we loved the beautiful views of the mountains and golf course.
There is still some construction going on throughout the property as renovations continue, but it didn’t take away from our experience.
We absolutely loved the pools! We enjoyed both of the main pools as well as the smaller pool closest to our villa. One of our favorite features was being able to order poolside food and drinks right from our seats by scanning the QR code on the umbrella near our chairs. It was so convenient, and both the food and drinks were great!
The staff was welcoming and helpful from check-in through checkout. Cameron checked us in and made a great first impression.
This has been a special place for our family to visit for years, and we’re really impressed with the upgrades being made. We had such a great stay and are already looking forward to coming back!
