We stayed 12 nights.
Personnel very kind and professional.
Hotel is clean and well maintained, despite being old.
Restaurant buffet is very good. More busy in the morning and calmer in evening. Despite the crowd, staff is manging to keep it always full of food.
Team of animantors very engaged. I was very happy to have Croatian in languages spoken among the crew.
Few points which I liked less, but I would not say it was negative:
Swimming pool only open 10-18h00 a bit brutal. Should be at least 19h00...
Mini disco very short and the room in which it is held is not very inviting. I imagine it worked great as a night club in 80s, but should be brought up to modern standards.
Finally be prepared that hotel is almost all Netherlands :)
To conclude, yes It is a hotel adapted for families with children.

Just stayed here for a week and it was perfect. We got a room upgrade. The rooms have everything you need and more and the beautiful manicured lawns are so peaceful. There is plenty of day and night entertainment if you want it and it isn't intrusive if you don't want it. The elderly resident cat in the lobby was the cherry on the cake for me! Would recommend

Excellent hotel with fantastic amenities, pool areas are clean and not too busy. Snacks are pretty standard and drinks are only slightly dearer than outside bars. Hotel is walking distance from most areas, Yumbo, Irish Sector, Cita and beaches.

I don't normally do reviews but for this hotel I had to! We booked for 5 nights as 7 not available on the Internet. Asked reception when we got here and they were so incredibly welcoming! They asked us to call the second day and they had sorted for us! Amazing and they remembered my children's names and made us feel very welcome! We are here mid Feb and every pool is warm! The breakfast is great and loads of choice. We have a 2 bed apartment and it has everything we need. The mini diso is great for younger children and the staff are brilliant. Iys also a 15 min walk to Play Del Ingles and about 2 minutes to the Yumbo centre. I highly recommend this hotel. It is so much better than the hotel grand princess we stayed at last year (just me and hubby) I would go as far to say this is one of our all time favourite hotels witn children or not (We have stayed at a lot).

All 100%. Spare luggage room for early arrival and late departure is an absolute lifesaver. + showers and pool towels after check out gives that feeling of a little extra.
