Amazing trip

Timothy K on Dec 13, 2025

Brianna was great and helped make our anniversary perfect! This was after 18 hours of travel and we were not in the mood to smile lol. The room was amazing and we were so happy we booked here!

My Besties and I’s 50th birthday trip!

Karen V on Dec 08, 2025

We had a great stay at this resort. Everything was very clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. Our first night was a bit noisy due to music from the town, but after mentioning it to the front desk the next morning, they quickly moved us to a much nicer, quieter room in another tower with no hassle at all. There was some construction happening during our stay, but it was limited to specific hours and clearly communicated at check-in, so it didn’t disrupt our visit. The prices were very reasonable, and the location is perfect—close to everything. We enjoyed both the pool and the pool bar, and we also attended the resort’s luau. It was a wonderful experience with great entertainment and delicious food. Overall, I would definitely recommend this resort.
