Great Place to Stay
We loved staying here. It is larger then we anticipated so if you have mobility issues, it might be difficult to get around. All the pool areas were wonderful and not very crowded. The restaurants were good and the nightly entertainment was an added bonus for us.

Not for toddlers
New water park did not meet expectations. Originally booked room for 2 nights to take two-year-old granddaughter. Unfortunately, there's nothing for a two-year-old to do Due to adults not allowed to take children down slides and her being too short to use any slides on her own. Personally was hoping for a splash pad for toddlers or an area for smaller children, very disappointing for the price we paid.

Fun, but needs staffing, organization, and signage
Arrival and check-in didn't start well. Loooooooong check-in line, and got even longer after. Guest information is not very well organized, with seemingly limited staff to answer phones.
Adding to that stress, the facility is very large. Signage is not promininent. The parking lot makes little sense (again, nebulous and poorly signed).
As far as value, the waterpark seems to be what you are paying for. The waterpark is new, fun for kids, but LOUD at busy times. Seems in need of some sound mitigation, hopefully that is planned.
The older pool and waterslide are nice as a lower-key option.
Overall, I likely would not stay here again unless the water park was the sole reason we are here. And then likely not, as check-in and getting settled should not be this arduous, even at busy times.

Bed are not comfortable
The resort is very nice. However for the amount of money they are bringing in, the beds and pillows could be more comfortable. They were like sleeping on rocks. Very uncomfortable.
The rooms also need updated.

Too expensive
Overall it was an enjoyable stay. The waterpark expansion was awesome. The hotel rooms are old and beds werent the most comfy and the bath tub didnt drain fast enough and water never really got hot enough. For 1,500 for 2 rooms for 2 nights it wasnt worth the money.
