Reviews
Great for families
8th Jul 2017
This was an ideal resort for families with lots to do - sailing, paddle boarding, snorkelling and an awesome water park. Not ideal for adults due to multitudes of children. Dining options were really limited, possibly due to one of the restaurants being closed for renovation. If you don't fancy the buffet and want to go a la carte (where the food is way better) you need to book at least a day in advance. The Snack Hut is awesome for cheap food but limited opening hours. Overall a really enjoyable stay.

Planation
4th Jul 2017
Planation island was a wonderful holiday for my family. the kids had more than enough activities to keep them VERY happy. The kids club was fantastic. The flexibility of the eating plan meant we could feed the kids early and then eat an 'adult' dinner a bit later without any hassles of two dining times.
Overall a wonderful holiday and a place that we will be returning too.
