Fodor's Review:

If your family loves the water, splash down at this beachside extravaganza. Activity here revolves around a 194,000-gallon pool (allegedly the area's largest) with a separate grotto pool and bar and spectacular swim-through waterfall that tumbles down from an island oasis; there's also a separate kiddie pool, as well as an 800-foot private beach. Standard rooms have refrigerators, coffeemakers, and two double beds (a few have kings), in-room safes, and free high-speed Internet; beachfront units come with microwaves. It's a popular spot for conventions, Spring Break, and families on a budget: there's no charge for additional guests under 18, and roll-away beds are only an extra $10 per night. For an extra-special evening, book an odd-numbered room between 1133 and 1143—the back door of each opens right into the pool. Pros: Extravagant offerings for a family-friendly vacation—the pool may please the kids more than the Gulf. Cons: May be too busy for romance travelers or seniors seeking peace and quiet.
