First and last time staying here. It almost felt like false advertisement where you see all the beautiful picture of the rooms online but once you arrive it's so outdated. Hotel rooms are what I am very particular about and for $200 a night I was very disappointed. We ended up in a standard double bed for my husband and I and two kids.

Cons: The mirror outside the door was fithly and inside the room we had a long body mirror which was also nasty, so I have to keep my reminding my 5 year old to stay off the floor and glass. Also, the sliding glass door was broke and they dont offer patio chairs on the first floor so we took the chairs from inside the room. But who want to do that on vacation. So to top that, my 9 year old spots a large roach in the living room as we were all watching TV. And unfortunately we couldn't find where it went once it fell into the curtains so that was very unsettling going to bed that night. I can say I have never see a roach in all my years of staying in a hotel and I hate to blame it on the location of this place , being a little woodsy and right by the water. And I forgot the hallways where we stayed had a bad stitch.

But also, the reason why we ended up in a standard size room was because it was all that seemed half decent and you can clearly see from my feedback about that didnt turn out so well either. But when we arrived the guy offer my husband and upgrade to a villa (a little house with your personal driveway) mind you it seemed like no one else was staying in these, first red flag. But we unlocked the door and let's say we were out of there in less that a mind. There was a filthy white couch in the living room and I refused to have my kids sit on, the bathroom shower floor was nasty and in the cracks. Again no chairs on the patio and this was a lake view and right when you walked in the carpet was not fresh or clean with a few bugs. So yea we had to take "supposedly" the only room available inside the towers.

So unfortunately this maybe a local favorite because I heard so many good things that people had to say about this place, like Oh yea you will really enjoy yourself! Sooo... not true. This place is nice as long as you spend all your time outside and bring all your cleaning supplies with you.
