- Family atmosphere, multiple pools
- Activities and evening entertainment
- Away from noisy downtown
Heads up
- No high chairs in dining room

The staff at the bar, as I call them, were very friendly and attentive, and they played good music. The room we were given was very comfortable and cool. And the view was beautiful. The buffet was delicious. Wishing you continued success!”
