I’ve been coming here since a kid. This place is very clean. The service is wonderful. Champagne toast upon arrival (included in resort fee) slide on beach, water fitness, stuff for kids like crafts and such, movies at night in the pool for the kids.. and little peddle boats that you can ride around resort. Not to mention free professional photo with their photographer on beach. (Have to call to set up, I recommend doing it ahead.. we didn’t get to get our photo) The pool side service with drinks and all is 🔥🔥 if in this area I recommend staying here. Been a fav since I was a kid.

Amenities: Excellent. A lot of kids game/activity, pool, beach access. Perfect resort for family. Room: Clean. Very clean. Staff: pool staff were friendly n helpful. Salty's bartender (female) maybe can be little but nice since we also paid 20% tips for every drink we purchase. Other: I wish they told me in detail by email which type of balcony room that i was upgrading. Got room 2238 which balcony is only 45cm length and noise in the morning from staff's talking near laundry room or sth. Overall, the place was amazing.

Very friendly staff, amenities galore, always something going on and things to do with the kids. Only complaint would be the shower. When a hotel caters to families, a pull down showerhead would be so beneficial!! The littles had a hard time getting shampoo and conditioner out. And of course as a female, I much prefer a pulldown showerhead, sand gets everywhere!
