We just love this resort! We have stayed in both oceanfront and poolside units and really enjoyed both. The oceanfront units have a spectacular view! We stayed in the poolside units this last time and it was perfect to be so close to the pool in summertime with children. The units have everything that you need! The ones that we... More
