Staff was great and the grounds were very nice. The tiki bar was fun too. We visited during low season so many of the rooms were unoccupied but we still got one with a view of the roof and A/C equipment. The toilet was toddler sized and very low to the floor so expect to work your quads. Having a shuttle available was super helpful and being able to access the other two properties was great as well.

It was clean, family friendly, quiet but yet plenty to do. It’s island time so sometimes when you want to do an activity like kayaking the employees take their time or when the coffee runs out in the main lobby it can be a guessing game as to who will fill it. We loved our stay though and they were so sweet to our toddler.
