Island Grand at TradeWinds
Room was nice but small area for coffee and sink Find it insulting that they charge you $25 to park your own car- not valet. Like u have any other choice if you drove to resort. At the room price and resort fee- parking should be free!!!!!!!

The Don CeSar
Staff was excellent. Service was very good. Facilities were beautiful and well maintained. The room size for the price was disappointing. The room was clean and well appointed but just too small. Especially the bath.
