With a shuttle to Sea World and pet packages available, there were lots of screaming kids and barking dogs. The restaurant service was terrible...first time, lunch took forever and we were out of water the whole time unable to flag anyone down. The second meal, room service breakfast, was doubled by accident but I was charged for it! The room delivery staff were very nice though. Needless to say we won’t be back.

Beautiful landscape and peaceful. Pools were inviting and not freezing cold. I didn’t like the discrepancy of one staff member saying one thing and then another saying a different thing on the same topic. I will get it in writing the next time.
