Great place for families

This resort was great for family, exceptional for the kids! We loved the location, activities on offer and staff. The downside was cost of food and drinks and limited snacks to purchase, when traveling with kids. But overall we loved our stay!

Family paradise

We really enjoyed our stay on Plantation Island. The resort was great for families, the location was great and the island scenery surreal. The snorkelling was amazing!
Booking with Travel Online was the easiest part, they too were fantastic and it all ran smoothly!

review

the resort is great, water amazing, waterpark is fantastic for kids - my kids spent hours and hours on the inflatable "thing", overall really pleased we selected this hotel. My only "complaints" are, beds aren't good - especially the 'couches' converted to beds they are as hard as a rock, showers are not good - but understandable due to location, food is average. In saying that, I will definately look back with fond memories of the place and would recommend.
