and its a beautiful hotel. My daughter is 8 now and we have stayed there with her before and she loved it she usually get about 3 postcards a year still from kidsclub.
The kidsclub itself is a big building towards the back but they usually take them to the pool if its ok with the parents. We have paid them to work after hours as well.
The main pool is Huge so great to take a few blow up things as plenty of room without annoying anyone else.
theres a pool bar where the have happy hours. if after a quieter setting they also have a smaller pool.
Even though this is s big hotel and 5 * its nothing like the Dynasty. Its fairly quiet and very serene esp in the morning just beautiful. I have found you tend to meet people quicly as its not so busy and you then see the same people all the time for drinks.
The buffet breakfast is good esp when included.
The only real negative is your not right next to the rest or shops but can either catch shuttle, take taxi for about $2.50 or use a driver like we tend to do. There are faily close rest. if you walk along the beach ie pantai on beach the one in at Bali Hai or coud be at the Dynasty in about 5-10 mins .
we upgraded on arrival the last time
to the Exec suite but can only take one child i think Beautiful
though like a villa.
staff were very friendly and rooms very clean just need to speed up their checkout but otherwise well recommended if your after a nice hotel a bit out of the main bit but within in mins to everything
No noise from the airport you woudnt even know its there.
