What I especially liked was how knowledgeable the staff was, not only about particular activities, but also about us. The staff made a point of knowing who we were and what our preferences were. I felt very well taken care of and I felt like all staff were concerned that we had a great time. Because of the staff’s care, we really had an outstanding vacation.
