We stayed there only last week.
Great pool 10/10, hotel 7/10, location 6/10.
Went there for pool and accomodation deal was better than the Dynasty.
Ate out alot. Very busy location, right near Poppies.
Pricey for drinks and meals. Small Bintangs 35,000 plus taxes (at local restaurants 14,000). Meals about 150,000 adults, kids 75,00 plus taxes.
Have to pay for Cabana (for shade) 200,000 weekdays, 250,000 weekends.
We had older kids, so didn't try kids club. Looked ok for young ones.
When our kids were younger, we went to the Dynasty and had pool view ground floor rooms. Great hotel! Great kids club, cheap. Fantastic service, staff remembered your names etc, unlike bigger hotels. Put kids to bed at night when tired, and sat on balcony each evening having duty free drinks and Bintangs. Could see kids sleeping, and could relax as adults. They have some good deals for younger families if all in one room, but don't feel they offer fair prices for kids over 12 years. They charge over 12 years olds as adults, and we required 2 rooms, so worked out too costly for us. We would have preferred the Dynasty, but for the cost/budget.
Hope this helps.
