While the kids are at the club
Families can relax and dine together across the resort with various dining options available.
Kids Dining Program
Kids have dining options offering free meals for children under five and half-off for ages 6-12.
These amenities only score well when there is real childcare to free up the time — a lovely spa with no kids' club earns little here.
On-Property Water Fun
The resort features three family-friendly pools with underwater music and a sandy area for building sandcastles.
- Family Pool
Includes underwater music and a white sand area for kids.
- Jacuzzi
A relaxing space for adults and kids.
