This was a family resort, with it being on the beach and not a lot of traffic. The staff were awesome; staff was very persistent at taking care of our needs; we actually stayed for 3 nights because it was amazing. Miss Remicka at the front desk was very kind and friendly; I hope I didn't spell her name wrong; I lost the card she gave us but she is a great person and you guys should hire more employees like her.
