Overall, we loved this resort. We will definitely stay here again.
Pros:

The location is perfect. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean. It was very comfortable.

Cons:

The adult only pool closes at 8 which is pretty early to me. We also had issues with our air conditioning not working. They sent someone right up as soon as we called. He got it on. But then it went out again.

Pros:

The hotel is very good; my dissatisfaction is with Booking.com. They confirmed my reservation at the Holiday Inn, but when I arrived, there was no booking. This happened in New York in June, and I’ve decided not to do business with them anymore.
