This is an update to my initial review, as after further reflection on our experience at the hotel, I felt my original comments were too critical due to a minor setback. Currently staying here with my family, including a 6-year-old boy and a 9-year-old daughter. Starting with the positives, the food at this hotel is exceptional. It's a buffet, which suits our family perfectly on all-inclusive holidays, giving the kids the freedom to choose what they want at each meal. The selection is vast and of outstanding quality, making it a highlight of our holiday experiences. The staff organize and maintain the food area incredibly well, keeping it clean and making the dining process seamless. There is a walk-up snack bar available during the day, where you need to wear at least a top to enter, but it’s great for letting the kids grab snacks whenever they like, which they really enjoy. There is also a Mexican restaurant available, though we never felt the need to use it. The hotel has three pools; one is a kid's splash park with three slides and a lily pad-style crossing, providing endless fun. The other, larger pool has a small section for children and allows inflatables if desired, and there is a baby pool to the far side. Lifeguards are present, but as is standard in all hotels, parents are expected to supervise their children. The bar staff are always helpful and quick to serve drinks. There is a kids' club during the day, though our children made friends so we didn't use it much. The evening entertainment is probably some of the best we’ve seen; the magician, especially, was a favourite, and our children were talking about it for days after. The hotel is predominantly visited by Spanish holiday-goers. The kids' club mainly caters to Spanish-speaking children, and while the animation team is fluent in English, our children felt somewhat left out, which is understandable and no fault of the hotel. Weekends can get busy with Spanish holiday-goers, resulting in slightly longer queues, but finding a poolside sunbed has never been an issue. The only small drawback is the air conditioning, which, although adequate, doesn't cool down as much as one might hope. This wasn't a major issue during our visit, but it could be more of an issue in the peak of summer. The rooms are a good size; parents have their own room, and the children have a fold-up bed. Even with the bed unfolded, the room is very spacious. The cleaners clean the room daily, and it is left spotless most days. The cleanliness of the hotel is incredibly good; the staff are always working, making sure glasses are picked up and everything is tidy. The hotel itself is stunning, with palm trees and well-maintained gardens, making it picturesque. Overall, our family has thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and I wanted to update my initial review as it was influenced by a singular bad experience, which in hindsight, feels unfair given the overall positive aspects of our visit. I would also like to not
