The gardens were well kept, and free beach towels and sun loungers were available.

The 1-bedroom apartment we stayed in was across the road, but it had a nice view of both the sea and the inland canals. An outdoor Jacuzzi was also available across the road.

NOTE: the temperature varied widely in the Jacuzzi; some days it was too hot to sit in.

The kithen was equiped with modern appliances and nice dishes and silverware. A glass top Table and Six Chairs adorned the dining area.

The living room has a TV with cable channels and a sofa sleeper and chair. The furniture was light and easy to move to make the bed at night.

The master bedroom had it's own bath and the second bath was in the hall by the second bedroom. Bedroom number two has a double bed and dressers. The second bedroom had a private balcony(ours had an ocean view).

There is a large balcony with four chairs off the living room to enjoys view of the fabulous courtyard with swimming pool, bar and restaurant.

The pool and beach here are wonderful, well kept and well staffed. Even go so far as to have a person to carry chairs to the beach for your enjoyment and return them for you when your done.

Happy hour (2 for 1) is from 4-6pm at Coconuts Bar and Grill, the resort’s poolside open-air restaurant. There is also a beach tiki hut for drinks. We bought a foam cooler at the Win Dixie and brought our own drinks and food from the room to the beach and pool. This resort is ideal if you plan to eat in most of the time.

There are bikes, croquet, shuffleboard, horseshoes, ping-pong, and a small library with limited video rentals for kids. The front desk can arrange tours, as well as boat, car and scooter rentals. (They come and pick you up from Port Lucaya.)

For early arrivals, the resort will store your bags until your room is ready. There is a free bus to the local grocery store every Monday just after noon. Alternatively, taxis costs about $20 round trip. If you take a taxi from the airport and expect to arrive at the resort after 4pm, have the taxi stop and wait at the Win Dixie or Solomen’s in the downtown area of Freeport before going to the resort.

The resort is located right on the beach and is beautiful with lots of shells to collect. The best time to find shells is early in the morning. Be sure to put out the "please make up room" sign in the morning so you will have clean towels by the afternoon. Free laundry is available to guests, but get there early in the morning to get a washer!

Timeshare owners are given a VIP card and can get towels and use the beach accessories (volleyball, soccer, chairs, and huts) for free by showing the card. You can also rent jet skis, kayaks, and paddle boats right from the beach. Other trips can be arranged for you through the staff--deep-sea fishing, parasailing, glass bottom boat rides, snorkeling, etc. You can also snorkel right off the beach if you choose to. The water is very clear.

The only drawback about this resort is that there are no children's activities except joining the adults in sand volleyball on the beach. Children are also not allowed in the hot tub. This was a drawback since the cool evenings cooled the unheated pool and our kids were not able to swim.

We attended the sales presentation just for the free T-shirts and free breakfast. The presentation was very low key but informative. Once we told our salesperson we were already timeshare owners the "pressure" was off. The resort needs to have organized activities and cater to the families who trade or own at this resort.
