Okay, so this place is no five stars, and it does not have all the amenities you would associate with a timeshare/resort hotel, but for a family of four, we had a blast. We would definitely go back.

The front entrance is under construction right now because the restaurant out front is moving to a new center right next to the complex. There are only about 60 units centered around a nice pool (huge deep end!) with a children's pool attached and a hot tub. The pool area contains nice Gas Grills for making burgers by the pool.

There is also a common kitchen (in addition to the room kitchens) that is connected to a large patio with two more BBQs. On our last night, we BBQued chicken, Carne Asada, played ping-png and shuffleboard with the kids and generally just relaxed. It's that kind of place. You don't go to be pampered, but you do go to be left alone.

If anything, our particular room was a little small (lenses do miracles for online room photos) but other than that it was great. The staff was nice and helpful and always around. There is also a nice children's playground and a putting green. It became our home for a week and we loved it.

We stayed at this hotel using an RCI week and it was a disappointment.. I can't really call it a hotel or resort. It is a modified motel. The "suites" are really just small rooms. And I mean small. The bathroom is so tiny, that the shower door doesn't open more than a foot because the door bangs up against the toilet. There is no bathtub. The room itself is small. In order to move around, we had to move the tiny coffee table against a wall, so that we didn't bang into it all the time. The patio is just a cement wall with 2 cheap, white plastic chairs and a small table. The locks on the doors are very poor. Not a inviting place to spend any time.

There is a vending machine for drinks and an ice machine. There is no store or gift shop and they don't sell any snacks. The office is only open for specific hours each day with no attendants at night.

The place does have a decent pool and nice BBQ's are provided if you want to cook. This place would be OK as an inexpensive place to stay for a day or two, but I would not recommend it if you're looking for a resort vacation spot.
