Pros:

Friendly staff. Clean. Nice room. Great Waterpark.

Cons:

The breakfast was fine but the set up is horrible. Doesn't flow. One area is crowded another is barely used. Drinks in the middle. So difficult to move around. So much wasted space.

Last night when I checked in, the staff was very nice. Made it very home vibe and the people at the Watiki waterpark was very friendly and helpful.

Do better!
Pros:

The water park was fun. Bed was comfortable.

Cons:

Some of the staff were rude. They didn't have my name correct on the reservation. Breakfast wasn't very good. The floor in the shower was so slick we were all sliding and my kids fell in there multiple times. The wristbands for the water park only certain ones scan you in. Need to expand the park area as well. EVERYTHING is overpriced! They closed the water park early Saturday night, but didn't mention that until AFTER we made the reservation and 2 days before our trip.

My wife was annoyed because our room did not get serviced while we were away.
Cons:

We stayed a second day in the same room. We left the room at 08:30 am for a day long tour. When we returned to the room around 5:00 pm the room had not been serviced. We had go down to the lobby to get clean tows.
