Don’t sleep.
Pros:

The pool was nice and the easy access to the beach.

Cons:

The room was not clean, the beds were like sleeping on concrete which caused an issues with my back. The beds were supposed to be queen beds and were more like twin size beds. The bathroom was small and the shower had very little water pressure. Outdated and for the money this resort is making they need to invest in redoing their rooms for a much better comfort. Left a day earlier due to my back hurting along with my 24 year old sons back giving him issues. Definitely won’t stay here again. Oh one more thing, update your outlets. They spark when I put my charger in the wall along with my cpap.

It was just okay
Pros:

Great location lots of stuff for kids to do.

Cons:

The room was clean; however, the couches had some pretty bad stains on them. The water in the bathroom sink smelled weird. Could not get any wifi connection given to us to work.

It was not the best
Pros:

Closeness to the beach.

Cons:

The room was not very clean. There was no ironing board. The pillows were flat and the mattress was hard. The bathtub held water during a shower. The walls were thin, we could hear everything from the room beside us.

Beach front and in need of cleaning
Pros:

Beach front

Cons:

It’s outdated, in serious need of a deep cleaning and repairs. The water park was mostly closed and when it was opened ( some days 12-5) the water was not running for the water slides to be used. You need to ask the front desk for toiletries( we only found a small soap bar) and fresh towels.
