Solid resort at reasonable prices and with the beach, indoor and outdoor pools it's very kid friendly. The resort is clean, has a nice outdoor bar/snack bar which is nice and the beach is in good condition. There is one woman at the front desk who could have been a little nicer, but it's a good place that I would... More

Had an oceanfront room for a recent 4 night stay in mid-May. Rooms were of average size, flat screen TV and small fridge. Very comfortable beds and pillows. Room was literally just steps to the beach. But there seem to be very few that face the ocean, most of the property is laid out so you'd have a limited "side-view"... More

Great location and resort. Staff was young and friendly. Especially enjoyed Kids Camp staff, who supervised activities each morning. Lots of activities planned every day to enjoy (or ignore). Jet skis and parasailing available on the beach in front of hotel. Staff helped facilitating sunbathing on beach, but I had to ask them. Indoor and outdoor pools were often crowded.
