I had mixed feelings about my stay at this resort. While the spacious rooms were great for my family, the amenities really fell short of expectations. The indoor pool was closed unexpectedly, and the lack of activities after the first day left us feeling bored. The staff was friendly, but the poor management and cleanliness issues were hard to overlook.

My stay at the resort wasn't quite what I had hoped for. While the spacious rooms had great potential, several maintenance issues and an unpleasant experience with cleanliness certainly stood out. On the positive side, the available activities for kids were a hit, and I appreciated the variety of facilities offered. However, the overall condition of the units and lack of attention to detail were disappointing.
