2. Think it's all in one's expectation out of their vacation, but folks, you are on vacation, slow down and take in the atmosphere.

3. Just slow down: enjoy walks around the meticulously groomed property with abundance of flowers every where, waterfalls, koi ponds, bridges, stairways with koa wood rails, water fountains, statues, artwork, extensive 9 interconnected pools, soft sand beach, quaint chapel, spa & fitness center, activities, shops, torches glowing, palm trees swaying, etc.

4. If one were able to visit this resort on some off week, it might be pleasant, but we must travel within school vacations, so my guess is that this family resort is often slow on the off-season, but I will not be returning.

5. Like the thin wrinkled robes in th closet you wonder why they even bother? The in room wifi that you pay for in your mandatory 'resort fee' is slow and often unavailable.

9. ?? Also, the waitresses around the pool and the pool eateries were minimally congenial at best and service pool side was very slow.
