Don’t book if you want adults only pool and spa access
Pros:

Location, the room was a large size. Good amenities.

Cons:

I booked thinking I would have adults-only access to the spa but I should have read the reviews, as only on check in was I told the main hours to use the spa and pool (4-6pm and 8-10am) were taken up by children’s swimming classes! When you can only check in after 3pm when can you use the pool and spa AND book in for a dinner? Such a shame.
