“Had a great vacation here. Nice resort, with lots to do. We went during spring break so there was lots of college students. It was a little crazy but the resort is so big that you can avoid them and have a quiet pool to stay at. The pool parties are so much fun. Lots of adults attend them and have just as much fun as the college students do. Food was good and fresh and staff are great. This was my first time here and I will be returning again in the future.” – Sean L. 3/19
