It was clean and tidy with daily room refreshes. Staff were super lovely and helpful. I should’ve done my research but unfortunately smoking was allowed at this property and it ended up in our room (89) even with all the windows and door kept closed. Very noise at night with kids still running around at 2am, needed ear plugs every night.

I liked the choice of pools. and the pizza on Wednesday night. I did not like the thin toilet paper - disintegrates as soon as it gets wet! I was in the cheaper section of units - but would have been nice to have a comfortable chair to sit and watch tv.

We stayed overnight in a family room. Beds are comfy and everything perfectly adequate. Unfortunately the gentleman next door to us didn’t follow guidelines and smoked a lot which wafted into our room. Cafe (for breakfast) is very overpriced and poor quality. Do not recommend. If you had young kids they’d probably love the pools and play areas.

What a great place to stay. Relaxed, great facilities, beautiful setting. We really enjoyed our stay. It is an older establishment, with some upgrades, and situated a little out of town. I really liked its hokey 80's vibes. The restaurant was great, the food fresh, well priced, and a great selection. All in all we were pretty happy with our stay.
