Review of KeyLime Cove Water Resort

Needs some work, but still nice. Food and service ...

Needs some work, but still nice. Food and service areas have major room for improvement, but the water park shines. We came Thanksgiving weekend and are here a couple days before Christmas with a half-off bounce back offer. Park is a great value with plenty of attractions for a two-night stay. Any longer and you'll probably get bored. Lines are always short or non-existent. Definitely could use 25 more double rafts. Those things are hoarded all over the park as they are so hard to come by. Food options are pretty lax. Bar and grill has small menu, pizza is fine, but nothing great, hamburger and hot dog joint in the park opens around 11 and closes 1 hour before the park closes, so better be on top of it for evening meals. Didn't try taco joint. Overall service outside the park is pretty lousy. Food staff has no interest getting people through quickly. Took 25 mins for a pizza, 10 for two coffees (actually waiting for drinks, not in line, and they weren't busy). Room wasn't available until 4:20pm (for a double-room suite), so be prepared to go to park and change later. Note we were able to check in at 1pm Thanksgiving weekend for a two-queen room, so your mileage may vary immensely. Also the tower 1 elevator was down the entire time we were here. In summary, park is great, food sucks. Eat out.
