Reviews
Other than that the family and I had a great time. There are two water parks in for adults and teller children and one for smaller children along with numerous pools and the beach. The beach was clean with plenty of shade if you want that and pleanty of seating. Our rooms were over the roof of the restaurants and there was always the smell of the food when we would open the balcony door. The smell was not as bad early in the morning or late at night. That's the only complaint I had about the room. The resort was clean and beautiful and it was not too big.
I would recommend this resort.
