"If you’re someone who likes breakfast for free, this is the place. Everything from scrambled eggs to omelettes to toast. All you can eat. Free ! Expect tremendously long lines if you get there when it starts but is a secret. Go down to the main lobby about 20 minutes before it ends. No lines. There is a happy hour in the Barr area that allows every guest to free drinks every night. We did not go because the lines were huge. This is a destination for people going on cruise cruises where the cruise line is about 6 blocks away. The pool area is nice. It’s huge. There’s a nice Koi pond right next to it for kids to enjoy. I have no true complaints, except whether there is definitely need for upgrading. Any large area they have for breakfast? When they clear the dishes. It should be used for something else. Maybe a night gathering or a small band or something. It just stays empty all night. "

"Included breakfast is good value. No dining or beverage option after 10 pm arrived on a delayed late flight after 10 hours of travel."

"Absolutely gorgeous facility. The staff was top-notch. My son really enjoyed the waterslides. We did not get an opportunity to use the kids club, but we did glance through the windows and it looked really cool. There are several food options within the resort, but they are pricey. I would definitely stay here again. We had such a perfect view to see the cruise ships coming in."

"The hotel was clean an comfortable "

"A great resort for families with so many options to-do on-site and restaurants. Would like for a better process for cheaper or provided beach chairs. Facilities feel like a blast from the past but it's clean which matters more than modern. "
