Positive Reviews
positive:
Life Guards are real life savers.
With water sports and activities being a focal point of the visit, safety comes into the equation and can be a real concern. The life guards here, though, are friendly, exceptionally well trained and efficient. So that initial safety concern quickly disperses. All staff, though, are friendly and helpful.

Everyone's a kid at heart.
Many activities are aimed at those kids who are 'teetering on their teen years' but it doesn't take long for older kids, parents ... and grandparents to get involved. Then, *if they've still got any (!) they can really relax and let their hair down in a range of water sports and games.
positive:
Good, clean fun!
All the slides (*there are 10 of them) , the surrounding areas and indoor restaurants and other facilities, are constantly kept clean. The same can be said of the rooms which are cleaned on a daily basis.

Get in the car .. for an economy drive!
Food and drinks at the resort are very expensive so, unless you are mega rich, you need an alternative. It's a good idea, then, to treat yourself to the occasional restaurant meal, but go and stock up at the supermarket on other food and drink supplies ... and save a bundle!
negative:
Pouring cold water on the fun.
It depends on the weather and season, but sometimes the water is icy cold; so fun and games are replaced by gritted teeth, determination and shivers.
negative:
Water Park concerns.
Sometimes, quite a few of the water toys aren't working; a recipe for disappointment. In this family environment, it's a concern that some of the adults choose to dress in very skimpy attire. But, on the other hand ...!!
