The security guard Jose was very professional and easy to understand. He was very friendly with giving me directions on how and where to park my 56 passenger coach bus.

For the past 18 years, our family has been returning to this wonderful hotel, and it has become a cherished part of our summer routine. While the accommodations and service have always been excellent, the true highlight of our stays, year after year, has been Dan! From the very beginning, Dan’s warmth, energy, and dedication stood out, but his impact became even more special once we had children. Our kids, now 10 and 12 years old, look forward to seeing him every single year. Especially, for the fantastic pool games he organizes. Dan has a unique way of making every child feel included and excited, creating memories that our family still talks about long after our vacation ends. It’s rare to find someone who can make such a lasting impression, but Dan has become a big part of why we keep coming back. We genuinely look forward to reuniting with him each year, and we feel so fortunate to have had the chance to know him over all this time. Thank you, Dan for helping create 18 years of unforgettable family moments. We can’t wait to see you again next year! Highly recommend this hotel, especially for families! - The Lowery family Read less
