The resort is nice, but highly over priced for what it is. Prices are on par with Hotel Del Coronado for a much lower tier experience.

This resort was so nice and so much fun to bring my family! Our almost 4 year old had a blast at the water park. Lots of space in the pools + hot tub and plenty of pool chairs throughout. The room was extremely nice and extremely clean. The beds were some of the most comfortable hotel beds we’ve stayed in!! Everybody was extremely nice and helpful. We will definitely be back!

Great property, but terrible location. The only negative about the resort is the Immediate Surrounding neighborhood is unsafe. As a
Family you do not feel safe walking around. Must stay on property or drive 20 minutes to get in a better location.

The hospitality was terrible, except for Rubio the bell man, was the only friendly and helpful employee. The rest was good except the wave pool was broken all three days.

Walkable food options outside the property are few. Lots of construction adjacent to the property. Hopefully future development will enhance the neighborhood and support the resort clientele.
Food options in the hotel dismal. Not all food venues open yet. Room service option also dismal. Menu options at the open venues too eclectic. Not enough variety options for those wanting typical food items and those with children. High price for poor food quality. Food from the lobby restaurant/bar made three out of three of us sick to our stomachs. Saving grace were the staff and chefs at the Steak House who brought us mashed potatoes, bread, buttered pasta and ginger ale for dinner. Our server Ruben was the best!!
The room was lovely. The water park fun and not crowded.

Overrated for the price. The tv streaming services were not working. Pool is not heated and hot tub was crowded. Food was good but overpriced, there are better restaurants and bar in the area at 3rd Ave at 1/4th of the price.
It was clean, the bed was comfortable and the staff was kind.

My family went with my seven year-old son, and we loved it, my son couldn’t get enough from the waterpark. The opportunity was with the food, this was food that we had in the pool area, they need to improve the menu the price for the quality is not fully there. But also they are just opened and will get better.
