Reviews
There were not seats available at the pool or “lagoon”. It is more of a resort for families with little kids than teenagers. Very disappointing given the high price.
My only complaint would be that they collect a $200 per night hold for incidentals, and then during my stay they also charged my card another $204 and $747 and when I asked why they said it was also for incidentals and it would be back in my account in 3-5 days. That’s a pretty stiff “hold”, if you ask me.
