I had a wonderful time at this resort! The location is perfect, with easy access to the beach and plenty of dining options nearby. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable, making it a great escape for my family. One of the highlights was the pool area, which was well-kept and inviting. However, I found the breakfast choices a bit lacking, and it was a shame that Wi-Fi was not included in the room rate.
