Margaritaville Resort Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the resort, rooms were very clean and spacious with lots of light. The swimming area was fabulous with a large pool, slide and an area of lounging chairs in a shallow pool. Great to have a host that you could order food from and drinks during the poolside. Restaurants , longe and bar were just lovely. Would come again. Only thing I could highly suggest: You need more pool umbrella's as too hot to sit in that heat during the afternoon."
