The resort itself is massive but I will say that the hotel needs more charging ports for electric vehicles. It only had two m, I repeat two for over 400+ guests. Makes 0 sense.

The only thing we had problem with is the cleanliness and condition of the outside patio. We spent 4 days and it was rarely picked up and cleaned. The condition of the seating was poor.

The property itself is great, and we have stayed here before and had a wonderful time. Unfortunately this was not! The TV in our room was not working, the smoke alarm in the hallway went off at 4am for about 30mins, and when we told them at check out they were less then accommodating.
