We very much enjoyed our stay here and will return. We came only for one night w/ two kids. There were fun activities for the kids (and adults) by the pool. We got up early and went looking for shells on the beach which was a big hit! The only issues we had were that 1. we booked a king bed but got a double and this is important bc my 4year old gets in bed with us every night so things were very tight. And 2. The mattress was somehow so loud! Every time someone rolled over or got out of bed, I was up. So, I would request a different room next time but would come back bc of the great staff, location, fun pool time with the kids and the beautiful beach.

Really great to see property coming back to life after getting hit hard by hurricane Ian a few years ago. The room I stayed in was brand new and very nice. Staff was polite, responsive, and helpful. Great pool area with plenty of seating, drink/food service at your chairs, and the kids loved the water slide. The hibachi restaurant on property was a lot of fun as well.

Resort was very clean. Staff were very friendly. Received $180.00 food/ service credit on arrival because some of the resort areas are under renovation because of the Hurricane last fall. My room was so nice and the bed was luxurious. Beach was beautiful!!!
