“This is a sizable hotel with some scuffs, though the animation and kid-focused features do make it an economical choice for families; dining is a highlight, with varied options available almost around the clock. Its distance from the beach is eased by golf cart service, and the staff seem eager to please, despite language barriers. I think it is a fair trade for what you pay.”
