Okay, I think I'm going to go with Homestead. It looks really good and I like the location, even though I don't swim, I like the idea of being right on the water so I can look out over it. I was reading Trip Advisor and people recommended you bring food and try to cook in your room at least some of the time to save money, and only eat out for a special treat.
