Rooms need updating, although they are very clean. Front desk staff were friendly and helpful. Calypso Restaurant is styled nicely, however, the female bartender needs extensive customer service training.

My daughter was married at the property and the staff was wonderful! They went out of their way to see that her wedding was perfect. We stayed at the resort, the rooms are very spacious and clean. Checking in was a breeze and they were very helpful with where to have breakfast and what was available in the area. I would recommend this resort to anyone wanting to get away fir a night or a week!
