Amazing place for kids
The stay was amazing for the kids as there were a lot of activities all day long. I think they need to do updates on the units as they are dated.

satisfactory stay
Staff were very friendly but the food needs major help. Prices don't match quality or quantity. Felt like dinner was a frozen reheated meal.
