It’s a fantastic place, all around. It’s very large, so plan accordingly. (The gym and kiddie care are far away from the entrance and restaurant.) The restaurant is exceptional and they don’t gouge you. It’s more than elsewhere, of course, but not by much. Will stay there again. PS the pool is really good too, but bring a swim cap or they’ll make you buy one. Jacuzzi is so-so but clean enough. Also a dry sauna. They could use a swimsuit spinner in the ladies’ changing room, though.
