Pros (+) Location location location. Right by the beach and lots of cute local restaurants
Cons (-) Staff was totally focused on getting guests to follow rules about everything and not on how to make this the most enjoyable experience. No flexibility and felt like middle school... Despite the location, not sure I'd go back.
