Alright so it depends on what you want. 1st of all the lazy river doesn't move very much. WE actually got stuck in a number of places and it was really annoying. The suites staircase is much nicer. The rooms are slightly nice and you get one extra al a cart. However it doesn't really matter that much at the beach resort if you go to an al a cart and they aren't full they will let you go again. Also there are ALOT more kids at the suites because of the play area for kids. WE liked being at the beach because it was a lot more younger people and it was a non stop party it was great. I only know how the suites was because the second week we upgraded to the grand and one of our guest was staying at the suites and showedus their room. IT wasn't that much nicer than our rooms though.
