First time we stayed here. It was really clean . And the pools were very clean . Alot to do for the kids. The only downside is if you're on the second floor you have to carry all if your luggage up quite a few steps.

This is a great little spot for families to visit ocean city! The pools are great and the rooms were comfortable. There are a lot of food options close by that allow you to enjoy that fresh seafood and the shuttle is a great option to get to the beach! 100% recommend if you have kids.

We came to stay here for my daughter’s 7th birthday and it had everything we needed on the resort, pool, splash pad for my 2 year old, bar for the adults in the crew and restaurant that had amazing BBQ chicken pizza. They left enough towels and washcloths upfront so we didn’t have to ask for more. We were able to make breakfast in our rooms to save money. All in all it a great time!

My kiddo got sick on the drive down. We arrived at the hotel very early in the morning and I explained my situation. They were able to get us a room within the hour so kiddo could rest. The room was very clean and the property and amenities are well maintained.

The staff on the premises were wonderful and extremely helpful. We loved the fact that the pools were right on the premise and even when we ventured out it was not far away at all. All other amenities and restaurants were very close, minutes away. Parking was good and free!! We didn't like the fact that the linens could have been softer. The towels and blankets were very scratchy. Some were soft and some were not. Our neighbors were a bit noisy at 12:00am but, this was a family-oriented facility so... Overall, you can't beat it for the price!!!

Really liked this for our younger boys. I picked this hotel bc of the reviews for kids having a good time. We enjoyed our stay- played putt putt and did a ton of swimming! Movie theater wasn’t used by us bc of the movie times and also the screen was smaller than what we own at home! Rooms were clean but the bathroom was less to be desired. Indoor pool areas really need a revamp! But it was fine for what we wanted! Close to the ocean but traffic is not great getting there from this place.

The property was pretty clean overall. Staff was all friendly and helpful. The property is a little outdated. Everything in our room worked, but its definitely older. We were fine with it. Just dont expect a brand new resort at this price. If you are ok with an older property and basic functions. Then its fine. I feel its a good price to experience ratio.

Stayed 2 nights in the room with kitchenette, very clean indoor and outdoor pools. There is only 1 basketball hoop, had to wait a few times for the hoop, hopefully they can have more basketball courts in the future. The walls are thin in the room, you can hear your neighbor talking, kids crying and so forth. 5 minute drive to the boardwalk, close to amenities. Overall we had a great time!

This was my family's 1st time staying at this location. It was very clean, the staff was super friendly and there was plenty for my 4 year old grandson to do. He loved the indoor pool, miniature golf, arcade room, playground and even the movie theater. He selected the movie he wanted to see and we were the only ones in the theater. The staff even popped popcorn for us. I would definitely stay here again.

The staff was friendly and very helpful with any problem that we had while there. We did encounter a few hiccups but would definitely come back to the property. It's location is perfect, it was not even 5 minutes from the beach to park if you want to drive . The amenities at the property were amazing we went to both pools and the arcade and movie theater but didn't get to play mini golf. The kids played at the play ground when we were on the property and not in the pools. Jello shots at the outside pool were delicious and the food in the restaurant was good.
