Westward Look Wyndham Grand Resort and Spa
Nice resort, the staff was very attentive, grounds were well laid out. The first assigned room, we couldn't find thermostat and wasn't told where to look for. The bathroom door and fan were extremely noisy. It took a long time for the water to warm up. Overall it was a present stay.
