This resort is not new and some of the decor is quite dated, but it is very well maintained and the service was excellent all around. The rooms were also fantastic. We are a family of four with two teenagers and it made all the difference for htem to have their own beds (and the Murphy beds are of good size and quite comfortable). Special shout out to Amanda at the front desk for her attention. And to the Margaritas, which were delicious!

Amazing food in each restaurant, lots of variety each day and fantastic quality! I did not enjoy trying to find a beach/pool chair each morning as people come out at 6 am, put their little flags on the chair and left them empty half the day. Nobody seems to check whether people are actually using the chairs they reserved. The rooms were great and we enjoyed the amenities.
