Pros:

Love the aesthetic of the pool, lights, pillar fireplaces, but couldn't FULLY enjoy them. The beds were comfortable.

Cons:

Not family-friendly. The pool area was LOADED with impaired adults, unsupervised kids, and open containers. The kids who were WITH adults weren't being supervised because said parents were completely sauced in the hot tub with no direct view anyway. I had to have our kids get out of the pool because drunk men were doing backflips into the pool without looking for kids. It's also hard to believe that the same pool entrance area that's littered and filthy on a Saturday night is the same place where we are served breakfast on Sunday morning. Totally appalled that staff allow it to get that rowdy and messy. We were so looking forward to our stay, but are sorely disappointed.
