We had a great stay. The property is beautiful and the staff is so friendly. The only thing that would have improved my stay would be having more umbrellas at the pool. There were very few umbrellas and so we had lounge chairs in the direct sun. It was over 110 degrees so we didn’t spend anytime in the lounge chairs just relaxing. We ate lunch at the bar, spent time in the pool, and then left. Everything else was great.

Great corner room with views of the stage for the concert we attended. Fast and yummy room service. Tash was amazing. The only reason for the 4 stars is that check in was terribly slow. We waited over an hour in a line that snaked all the way through the casino. We almost missed our dinner reservation because of it.
