Accommodations Review:
|
We had a standard room with a pool view. it
consisted of two queen beds, ironing boards, coffee makers and
mini bar. you can also see the fireworks from the rooms that are
facing the pool and that are at least on the 6th or 7th floor. |
Rate/Night (for your stay):
|
We redeemed Marriott awards for both our stays but I
would think the rooms range 199 - 350 for a standard room |
# of Restaurants/Lounges:

They have one piano bar which is in the atrium. very
nice. they also have a poolside bar. They have an ice cream
parlor, a cafe that offers pizza, burgers and such (which is

The outdoor pool is very nice it has a water slide
and several water falls. they rent floats for the pool. there is a
kiddie pool next to the large pool. they have plenty of lounge
chairs which stay full! They also have a smaller pool with a
volleyball net on the upper level next to the poolside bar. They
have three hot tubes outside. One is behind the waterfalls. they
also have waitress/waiters that take your orders while you lounge! |
