My sister walked into the lobby and pool area of Blanco and said it was cheesy--she said it was clean and it would do but that it was just a little cheesy. She, unfortunately, did not go to the Rose so not sure how the two compare. From what I can tell from online sources, the atmosphere at the Rose may be a little better but am just trying to make the best decision. I think the Blanco has more ocean view rooms than the Rose--did your siblings have ocean view or partial ocean view? Any add'l info you could pass on about either hotel w/b wonderful!
Thanks!

Now, both resorts are identical and right next door, just different colors. I think it really depends on what you are looking for.
Let me know if you have specific questions. I'll try to find the answers.
