The suite has two Queen Beds and a Double Sofa Bed and sleeps up to 6 guests. That makes it a good fit for families or small groups sharing one space. Bedding is premium, with Egyptian cotton sheets, a pillowtop mattress and a down comforter, and the room has hypo-allergenic bedding.

At 576 sq. ft. it has room for a family to spread out. A free crib is available on request, and the kitchenette helps with snacks and simple meals. Children of all ages are welcome at the resort. The primary guest checking in must be at least 21 with a valid ID.

The private bathroom has a bathtub or shower, bathrobes, a hair dryer, towels changed on request, and complimentary shampoo, soap and toilet paper. Accessibility features include smooth flooring, braille/raised signage and a grab bar near the toilet where provided.
