There was stuff under the beds on the floor. There were dust bunnies all over in the bathroom. The floor needed to be swept. There was gum stuck to the side of the nightstand. The curtain was hanging on one end as it was broken.

Castaway Bay needs new mattresses. Also, the fire alarms went off while we were there. Overall the stay wasnt bad. But the hotel could use some updates.

We had an amazing family trip over Memorial Day Weekend!! The breakfast Buffett in the morning is a must!! All the food is so fresh and tasty. We were very impressed with the indoor waterpark and the water coaster was a hit with my boys!! The food at the water park was also top notch!! We look forward to staying with Castaway Bay in the future!!

Fire alarm went off repeatedly at night and again early in the morning and caused a lot of anxiety especially for my 18 month old who was woken up abruptly and was very scared. Food absolutely sucks, rooms are super dirty and on top of that we came home with bedbugs. Horrible experience!

Not worth it

The cops were there for some reason, parents weren’t watching their kids. For the price of the room it definitely isn’t worth it.
