We had a great stay while visiting legoland and the beaches, close to everything we needed and had all the amenities a family could need. Breakfast was wonderful and the courtyard games were a hit after dinner.

My family stay was pretty good, food, property staff the hotel itself was really well taken care of and the price wasn't too bad. My only issues are with the bed and shower. The frame holding the bed, sticks out in the middle. To the point I scratched myself and my daughter did as well pretty bad. The shower curtain is way too short. It should be 6 inches longer to keep the water from falling all over the bathroom floor. It's so short, if it didn't have magnets at the bottom it would never hold in any water in the tub.
