Comfortable family fun stay, close to moody gardens!
Pros:

The mini golf experience was fun! The pool was well maintained and comfortable to swim in.

Cons:

The breakfast was not as fulfilling as we were hoping for. Other hot items like waffles or sausage would have complimented what they provided.

Pros:

Location was close to the seawall, restaurants, and ultimately a great value for a stay before a cruise. Close enough to our parking for our cruise and the putt putt was a plus for the kids.

Cons:

I understand mosquitos are not the easiest to control in this area, however the putt putt was a super quick round because the kiddos were getting bite a lot. Bug spray helped but the mosquitos got in the room pretty easy. Some type of prevention outside the rooms would be the only thing I would think as advice for the property.

Very enjoyable.
Pros:

The miniature golf was perfect. We were without a car, it was hot and miserable. But, the pool was perfect, and we golfed at night. We had a good time.

Cons:

The fire ants and mosquitoes, kept us indoors all day, but we both needed the rest. I realize this is not their fault.
