Scene
Relaxing, family-friendly atmosphere with several pools

The atmosphere and music around the main waterslide pool can be boisterous, but there's an adult-only pool for those looking to relax. The hotel is composed of two- to three-story buildings painted beige with smoked-glass railings on their balconies. The complex has manicured gardens and paved walking paths, plus gorgeous views of the surrounding mountains. The design is contemporary with stylish touches, such as velvet seating and damask wallpaper accents in the lobby, and the yellow-cushioned wrought-iron chairs at the poolside bar. The property was formerly the Asena Village Hotel, and most guests note that it has greatly improved since then.
