Staff was friendly. Tiki bar is awesome. I would say that calling it a "resort" is definitely a stretch. It was clean and thats what matters.

Room was spotless and very comfy. I think the rooms could use dehumidifiers as the floors were slippery and towels didnt dry. Also the step down out the front door was unexpected and caused some issues with my hubs that is recovering from a torn quad. Thought you should know this. Thanks for your hospitality!

The room was ok. In the description it said newly renovated rooms. Not at all. Toilet was not tight to the floor. So it banged down every time you sat on it. Television is so small you need binoculars to see it. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Pool is nice and clean.
