Unfortunately, I messed the booking up so we ended up in garden rooms rather than the lagoon rooms which meant we didnt get the experience we were hoping for. Staff very friendly and helpful, and great location plus free use of kayaks etc. Maybe not as much access to swings, hammocks, etc as we'd thought, and noticeable road noise; but, again, we were expecting to have dedicated seating and lagoon access. Marginal price difference between rooms so go for lagoon cottages. Hotel automatically adds service charge even if you leave staff a tip which is a bit naughty.
