We had a wonderful stay this past weekend! The hotel was incredibly clean, and the staff was very friendly and welcoming, which made our experience even better. Everything felt well taken care of, and we truly appreciated the attention to detail. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place—especially for couples looking for a relaxing and comfortable getaway. Just a heads-up, it may not be the best fit for families with little ones, but for a peaceful stay, it’s a great choice!

The pool was freezing cold but there was literally not one spec of trash on it. The water was clear blue. It reminded me of an all star Disney resort on a mini version. Super clean and organized. 10/10.
