View →Rating8.2Rating8.0Rating8.2Rating8.0The activity calendar is dense: the Playroom kids' club (9 AM–10 PM), Wired Lounge teens' arcade and bowling (10 AM–midnight), a full water park with lazy river and wave pool, 19 pools, and a Jack Nicklaus 27-hole golf course. Non-motorized water sports are included; motorized options and golf cost extra.
