Overall Score4.0/ 5
We enjoyed the overall feel of the resort, it was easy to park and at a great location. Negatives were long checkin line, dated rooms and no housekeeping service during our stay which we were surprised about. Our room in the tower had a view of the parking garage only. Overall was fine but potential to be much nicer.

Overall Score4.0/ 5
I enjoyed the venue for my niece’s wedding and the staff was courteous and welcoming. The accommodation we received for the first night was the worst I have ever experienced however room 104 was cramped and smelly (like a college frat house). The next two nights, after we told the front desk about the smell, we were given a room on the 11th floor with beautiful balcony views of the ocean and a kitchenette! I would suggest that the staff steam clean the carpets when they receive a comment about smell and avoid negative PR for future guests! Overall, it was a positive experience!
