Fodor's Review:

A major transformation turned the legendary '50s-style resort into a chic Spanish colonial oasis with dark wood, open-beam ceilings and paneling, crystal chandeliers, and leather and wrought-iron furnishings. Ample guest rooms, in shades of brown and sand with oversize chairs and sofas, fill a collection of two-story buildings surrounding the lobby, Club House, and conference center. There are flower-decked gardens and fairway views throughout the resort's 400 tree-shaded acres—and the best of all fairway views may be from one of the state-of-the-art bikes in the fitness center. The family-friendly resort holds a kids' club, Kidtopia, and has a teen lounge, Vibz, as well as seven swimming pools, three waterslides, and a water play zone.There are two PGA championship golf courses, a large tennis center, and a family entertainment area. Pros: Huge glamorous spa, excellent kids' facilities, popular restaurant. Cons: Very spread out, making long walks necessary; lots of kids.
