The property was beautiful, our room was clean and roomy. Had nice amenities. However I went through a third party to reserve our room. Had to cut the trip a day short and they refuse to give back any money for the second day. Seems a little ridiculous for one night to not work with a customer. Third party reached out to hotel and they still wouldn’t give any money back unless we had a doctors note. I would have come back to stay there with my family but not after that. They also wanted to sell me a time share property but why would even consider it if they wouldn’t work with me having to leave a day early.

Convenient if you want something close-ish to the parks and I guess good if you have kids as they have things to do on the property like pool, coordinated activities, bowling, etc. Staff was nice but I rated that 3 stars as they will bug you about time-shares… they literally called my room and woke me up in the morning to do so. The room was clean with no technical issues but outdated. Property was a bit out of sorts though.

Very clean and everyone was very nice. I wish I could rate it Five Stars but the Spa was out the entire week, the rentable amenities were very low quality considering everything else was so expensive. The food I did eat there was also not very good, my girlfriend and I got a croissant from their Starbucks there and it was hard as a rock.
