Decent place to stay when you want to visit
Place is fine. We go every year. Dishwasher missing the back two wheels made it awkward. Used the gym one day and some other guest couple dragged their 3 kids into the gym they were not supposed to be in (16 year age limit) with one crying in the corner. Told the front desk and they did not appear to care. Plenty of stuff close by.

Not Worth the Money
We got in late, close to midnight, and the check-in clerk looked and acted annoyed that she had to be there. The room had a “smell” to it. Both showers drained super-slow, there were spiderwebs in the master bath and on the light fixture over the dining table, the light fixture was dusty too. The microwave was missing a panel on the inside, it looked damaged but surprisingly it worked (only used it once though). If this is what staying at a resort is like, I’ll stick to chain hotels in the future.
