The beach here was outstanding...amazing shelling as well! The rooms are looking a little tired, and there really isn't much to do. Travelling with a teen he found himself quite bored. The arcade is a nice amenity, however, it'll cost you. You burn through the arcade cards at a rapid pace. I was quite irked too as we purchased an arcade card for a heftier amount to last us the few days we were there, only to be turned away our last day because of a private event. There was signage around the hotel the arcade would reopen at 9pm, but we were turned away and told to come back at 10pm. We went back at 10:15 and were told we had to leave because it was closed for the function for the rest of the night. I explained it was our last night and we still had funds remaining on our arcade card, but the manager did nothing for us even when I asked if our remaining funds could be refunded. This left a very bad taste in my mouth considering it was the only form of entertainment available for my son.
Additionally, be prepared to budget for parking. There aren't any options available other than through the hotel, so even self-parking will set you back US$35 per day (almost CDN$50 which is pretty steep).
Overall, a great option if you're looking for a romantic weekend away or if you're planning a baby moon, but given the lack of things to do, I wouldn't bring teens or stay longer than a few days.
