You said you found other places too quiet and wanted somewhere social. The Mandira is good but you'll find the pool towel thing everywhere, and yes there were some real hoggers at Jayakarta. One family had absolute poolside rooms, still hauled 3-4 wooden pool longes up on the grass outside their door, laid their towels and goodies on them and promptly left for the day. Left a lot of people sitting on concrete., That's the ultimate in selfish that I have witnessed.
I used to think this place was way too big, but honestly it actually didn't feel like that.
The Niksoma is not really for kids, but the Puri Rajh will be renovated by then.
