Not too family-friendly but a beautiful resort!
We certainly enjoyed our stay. We brought our 2 children with us and had a great time but this is probably not the most family-friendly place. Extremely nice. Would be happy to stay again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The pool is more like a retirement village hang out than ...
