The entire family enjoyed our stay! We will be back because we had so many things we wanted to do. Checking in was a breeze and the information desk had so many thing for us to do with coupons included. The room was clean and we had a nice view of the outdoor waterpark. I was able to text whenever I needed anything and they got it done right away. The staff was friendly and helpful when needed. The food and drinks were a plus as well. We really didn't need to leave for anything.

Our room was right next to the pool. I love that you can just send a text for any needs and to check out. The rooftop pool was amazing as well as the lazy river. We had tall ceilings in our room which made a small space seem less crowded.

Room was decent. Cozy and clean experience. Not a fan for the gimmicks on the come listen about time shares but overall enjoyed. Indoor waterpark was alright. If stuck inside they had almost everything you could need on site but just remember its a resort

10/10 Exceptional

Our family had a great time. Our girls built bears, the lady in that store was amazing and great with our kids. Rooms were clean and great location. Waterpark was enjoyable, we spent most of the time in the tiny kids area. My only complaint would be the older kids playing on the little double slide and splashing and kicking my 18 month old.

Kids absolutely enjoyed it, I wished they would have given us better direction to where our room was located but overall we had a great experience. Will continue to come back.

2/10 Poor

Half of the indoor park was closed due to construction. Very underwhelming to bring a soon to be 12 year old to the place he wamted to take his siblings too snd half of it is blocked off.
