I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the water park and family suite with swim-up access were impressive, the overall service and dining options fell short. The cleanliness and condition of the surrounding area left a lot to be desired, and certain aspects of my stay were disappointing.

Our stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The pools are fantastic, and the entertainment team made our vacation lively. However, the food variety could definitely be improved, and we found a few aspects disappointing, like the need to pay extra for beach chairs even with an all-inclusive deal. If you're looking for a family-friendly place with fun activities, you might enjoy it, but be prepared for some letdowns.
