I like the idea of this hotel more than the reality. I went with my 2 sisters for a girls weekend. We tried to use the “adults only” pool and hot tub, but the pool was too cold and the hot tub was at capacity with only FIVE people already in it, so we went to the big hot tub. It was Sunday night so we hoped there wouldn’t be too many kids. There were still a handful of kids at 9pm on Sunday night, but it wasn’t too bad, however, the water was only lukewarm and the chemicals burned our eyes. After that we went to our rooms for a bad night’s sleep on beds that were too small for 2, and really bouncy moving every time someone shifted position. We had breakfast at Oma’s which was pretty good tasting, but overpriced. A side of fruit is 9.50 and the $5 hot cocoa was tiny. Sadly, I don’t think we will stay there again. It might be fine for a family trip with small children and a king size bed.
