Decent Stay with Friendly Staff
breakfast buffetkids clubbad weatherno refund
The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of options. The kids club was a bonus and kept my child entertained indoors. (The staff were attentive.) Buggies were easily accessible around the island. It was convenient to get around.
The weather was unfavorable . Several facilities were closed because of this. I had to return early, and I did not receive a refund for the unused portion of the day pass.
