The resort was one of our favorites! We will definitely be back. The rooms were clean and well stocked. The pools and hot tubs were so fun. The only downside was the lullaby’s played at the pool! The private path to Lego land was a game changer!

The property is lovely. We enjoyed the Cove pool and bar. However be aware that this is one of Hilton’s Vacation Club (timeshare) properties. Check in took longer than regular and good luck avoiding the sales people who literally block your path out of the lobby. They insist on signing you up for a presentation. We didn’t attend but would have preferred them accepting our polite “no thank you” from the start.
