The Chula Vista Resort can claim to be on the river, and they can claim to have "river view" rooms, but the trees and distance to the river leave one wondering how they can get away with such claim.

The rooms are very nice, spacious and a good value, especially if you want a mega-resort complex including waterpark theme and activities for kids, but it was not the sort of pleasant get away by the river I had hoped for. Several times I found myself lost in the complex, just because I'd wanted to take stairs instead of an elevator, and one evening trying to head off for dinner I ended up in a distant building, far from my parking lot. There are a lot of rooms, and extensive conference center, no retreat in the woods.

Stayed at Chula Vista Resort in October for a wedding reception. It was a great time. We did not visit the indoor water park, but made use of other options such as food and beverage. The food was great (try the breakfast buffet). Our room was well appointed and very nice. We will stay there again.

We have been in "the club" for a little while now and it is nothing but a scam!!! If you at all are thinking about joining please don't sign anything until you have a lawyer look it over. They made all kinds of promises that they do not keep. The hotel it's self is very nice place and we have always had a good time staying there but please I can not stress enough not to get suckered into "the club" because you will be very disapointed.

The resort was clean and family friendly. We are a family of six and booked a junior suite that includes two queen size beds and a pull out sofa. The room also has a microwave and fridge. The kids loved the indoor water park.
