Great place to take the kids. The only down side was the staff in the brewery cafe and dinning near the kids pool. They were rude and and not very helpful. Other than that it was a great experience and we would stay again.

Just loved that you could just stay at the property as it had everything that you needed there. eg Food, Pool, play areas. The staff were amazing. There was nothing that I didn't like but maybe the breakfast for the little ones could have been a bit cheaper. Say, Up to a certain age eat free or $5 to $10 as I really think $17 was a bit high.
