The breakfast buffet has many options. The food variety is good. a beachfront restaurant is available, though not directly on the beach. alternate breakfast places were provided because the main one was fully booked!

I found the breakfast excellent with many choices. The hotel has multiple pools and some water rides for both kids and adults. I liked the beachfront allowing direct access from the hotel.
The pool opened at 7 am and closed at 7 pm. Pool cleaning started after opening, inconvenient. I found staff cleaning and vacuuming while guests were present. Their equipment sometimes got in the way. They did not move it.
