Beautiful landscaped grounds. I wish I knew beforehand there would be an extra $70 resort fee and an extra $15.68 charged per day for parking. The front desk person said it was in “fine print” which seemed somewhat deceptive. Parking tickets needed to be validated and the validated tickets needed to be shown on camera to the front desk to raise the gate to enter and leave the parking lot. And sometimes there was no one manning the desk so we would have to wait at the gate.

We stayed for 3 nights, it was quiet and relaxing! The resort fees were too high and the transportation to and from the airport was expensive. Food was good and staff was so nice. We were expecting more activities for the family.

The rooms view is amazing! The shopping and restaurants are top notch!! Great place to stay with family plenty to do and see without Lea the resort. Only think I didn’t like is they charge xtra for parking which I feel should be included in your stay, and the beds could be a little softer other then that it was great will come again.
