Family Friendly Stay
Pros:

Parkshore has the best beach in my opinion. My partner walked every morning along the beach past every other hotel and we agreed Parkshore has the cleanest biggest and most accessible for guests. We enjoyed the luxury of the Bar and Restaurant. We always enjoy the food and special options. We will be back.

Cons:

Check out was a bit of confussion. My only advice would be to check out with an actual person and get a receipt. It seemed out stay was extended with be notified or prior conversation. Luckily, we went distance leave our keys in the drop box and leave. It would have been a mess to qork out hours away.

It was a good vacation, I would consider staying there again.
Pros:

I didn't have any issues or need anything from the staff. The room was as expected. The location was good, there were plenty of stores very close for food and goods. The pool was decent (the first 2 days it was really cold, but the last 2 days it was really nice and not cold.

Cons:

I didn't like the pool being cold. The breakfast didn't look very good, so we didn't eat there. The hotel seemed a bit dated but really not bad. Oh, and the water in the shower left our skin feeling slimy that wouldn't rinse off, not sure what that was about though.

It was very comfortable, relaxing, and had a beautiful view.
Pros:

Room location, first floor on the water and room layout.
The patio was a good size and included two lounges, two chairs, and a table.

Cons:

The television was difficult to operate. The swimming pool was too cold to use and the hot tub had weak jets.
