Our stay was great. The bedding was very nice. The towels as well, especially the washcloths. They were very nice. I did ask for extra pillows but not available. So I used the pool towels to add volume. Also the indoor pool was great as well . Overall our stay was amazing. Close to nice restaurants and of course the aquarium. Great price.

Family room - just right!
I stayed in the 3 bed family room with my daughter and 3 grandsons. Big room with a big bathroom. It is clean and modern. Great location, near a grocery store, liquor store and a few restaurants. The heated pool is inside a pergola type structure, protected and private. Friendly office staff. I would stay here again.
