I had a wonderful stay where the service was exceptional, particularly from Lindy at the pre-arrival desk who made our family gathering extra special. The amenities, especially the pool areas and kids' activities, provided plenty of entertainment for the whole family. However, the room could have used a bit more attention in cleaning and some areas were starting to show wear. Overall, it’s a great family destination with good value for the spacious accommodations.

I had a lovely time at Shadow Ridge - The Enclaves! The spacious accommodations provided a comfortable and enjoyable stay, and the diverse range of outdoor activities ensured my family and I were never bored. The only downsides were the pricey food options and a few maintenance issues in our villa. Overall, I would recommend this resort as a great family getaway.
