The room was very clean and the Front Desk Staff very helpful, the kitchen in the room was accommodating even though it was not what we asked for and the location of our room was great.
We have a great stay. It was great to see the staff really cared about people being safe at the waterpark and had a good time. It was great to see the staff being nice and teaching kids how to do the surf rider without getting mad.
My room and bathroom was clean. Plenty of toiletries set out for the guest. Staff were nice and helpful. The pool was clean and most of the lifeguards were nice. All the restaurants were clean and had great food. The bar staff were extremely nice and very well trained!
Everything was wonderful arcade pool area food hall frozen yogurt shop candy shop build a friend. Rooms was very nice and balcony view was great. The kids really enjoyed the rids! Overall a 10/10 I really recommend this place for families trips. Will be returning
