KeyLime Cove offers a fun waterpark experience for families, and the cleanliness of the rooms is commendable. While the dining options are convenient, they can be quite pricey and not always appealing. The overall atmosphere is vibrant, but the overcrowding in the waterpark and a few cleanliness issues need attention for a better experience.

We had a blast during our staycation! The location was perfect, and the water park was a fantastic destination for the kids. However, I did notice some rooms lack microwaves, and I believe the pool regulations could be a bit better. Overall, the cleanliness and fun activities made it a memorable experience for our family.
