NOTICE OF ACCESSIBILITY

Our goal is to provide hospitality to all people and this means everyone. Our mission is to make it as easy as possible for all people including those with hearing, vision, or any other disability to learn about this property and book their stay if they so desire.

If you have difficulty learning about or booking this hotel, we invite you to contact the hotel via telephone and their friendly staff will gladly assist you.

We work very hard to provide an easy-to-use online experience for all guests. We believe all of our website visitors should be able to easily research online regardless of device type and whether an individual requires assistive technology like a screen reader, font magnification, translation or voice recognition software.

To ensure this, we are committed to compliance with the Website Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 (WCAG 2.0), an international standard measure of accessibility success. Our website and digital marketing has been developed after carefully parsing these particular guidelines and is continuously being enhanced to make our technology more accessible and user-friendly.

This hotel has the appropriate policies, best practices, and procedures in place to ensure that individuals with disabilities can make reservations for accessible guest rooms during the same hours and in the same manner as individuals who do not need accessible rooms.

As part of our reservation processes, we:

  • Ensure that accessible guest rooms are held for use by individuals with disabilities until all other guest rooms of that type have been rented and the accessible room requested is the only remaining room of that type;
  • Reserve, upon request, accessible guest rooms or specific types of guest rooms and ensure that the guest rooms requested are blocked and removed from all reservations systems; and
  • Guarantee that the specific accessible guest room reserved through its reservations system is held for the reserving guest, regardless of whether a specific room is held in response to reservations made by others.

If you require any assistance with booking your reservation, please contact the hotel directly via email, phone, or social media.

We have worked hard to ensure our property is accessible to everyone, which includes:

  • All public areas are accessible to everyone which includes ramps to all pools, tennis courts, BBQ Area, Gym, mini golf, Lobby, etc.
  • All pools and 2 hot tubs are equipped with handicap lifts to ensure all guests can enjoy all of our amenities.
  • We do have 4 ADA units on the property, and anyone requesting assistance is assigned to a group floor unit.
