pretty ordinary, not much of a way for an animal to spend its life.
Dolphins are contained in a pool, and the ethics of this have also been questioned (I think they are better off than the primates in some ways)
However, each to their own.
I would be inclined to book somewhere else in Lovina/Anturan etc and just visit this facility for a look first.....if you think it's OK, then you can look at booking a stay, if not this time maybe next.
Mara Lodge is a much better example of how to keep animals in captivity if you must.
