While the resort has a lot to offer, including spacious accommodations and a series of dining options, I found it a bit overwhelming with its size and the presence of many families. The shared pool was a luxurious touch, and we loved the proximity to the beach, but the dining experience could use some refinement, particularly when it comes to managing the crowd. Overall, it was a decent stay, but I wouldn't consider returning.
