I had a fine stay at this hotel. The spacious and clean rooms certainly added to my comfort, and the variety of activities available was impressive, especially for families. However, the dining experience wasn't perfect, as some food options were less than ideal, and there were some issues with the bar being far from the pool. Overall, it's a decent pick for a family getaway with some great amenities, but it could benefit from a few improvements in certain areas.
