"We have been several times, however this was our first time back in 7 years and found that overall the resort had not changed. We are not foodies but did find the quality has slipped in the buffet as well the staff were less attentive. Not a big deal first world problems most will say. We enjoy brand but believe they need to improve the quality of food and alcoholic drinks."
