We enjoyed our stay and found the staff to be courteous and responsive. Our room was a generous size, clean and well appointed (as is often the case we wouldn’t have said no to a couple of more outlets lol). The beach and pool areas had plenty of seating and multiple things to do—ping pong, cornhole, etc. We would absolutely stay here again.
