"This place was amazing!! My wife and I stayed for 4 days here and honestly my only complaint was the room. We stayed in room 602, the room is small and the shower was horrible since it's a Jacuzzi/shower combo. It was almost impossible to really shower since I'm 6 ft 2. The buffet was the only food option which was so good, the food was fresh and delicious. The bartenders really know how to mix a drink!!!! Caesar was our favorite!!! Since it was off season the resort was very quiet and relaxing. I will definitely be booking here again just not room 602"
