We had so much fun and the location was great. The front desk was amazing when we checked in. Being able to go between the pool at the hotel and the pool next door depending on which kid activity was going on at each kept our little one entertained all day. Will be back for sure.

This place checks all the boxes, if I could give it a 10 star I would. Everything from start to finish was beyond excellent. I want to thank Maggie she has been such a sweetheart, and the whole front desk team has been super friendly. The beach is so amazing I will def come back. Only thing I would say it could improve, better food options at the hotel. Loooved it here so so much
