"The property is beautiful, clean, and SO big. There is something to do for everyone, but definitely be prepared to walk. Depending what pool you’re lounging in, it’s very likely that you’ll have to tend yourself to your drinks/snacks. Honestly, this was a blessing in disguise because it helped me get a substantial of steps in to burn off all the beer I consumed 😅 They don’t offer room service to all guests, but they do have a sports bar open 24/7. We ended up having to carry food out in napkins because they don’t offer any to go plates/boxes. I also have to say that this resort had some of the rudest staff I’ve ever encountered, with the exception of a couple of bartenders and servers. The majority of the folks here were less than helpful and the timeshare folks are SO persistent, to the point of annoyance."
