As we will stay there 2 weeks we need to stay in a resort that also has activities to offer within the resort and surrounding it nearby, as travelling around can be difficult with so many children. Would FS be suitable in yuor opinion?
Thanks again!!!
As Paul2 just said, you might not be able to ask all these questions, rather first check what is available at all, but I can still answer.
We went there almost 3 years ago, pretty new by then. No idea how it will look now.
Activities offered within the resort are very good for the age group of the kids that you bring. I would be more worried for older kids. However, there are really not much to do at or around the resort. At the resort it is more about relaxing. The SPA is also great. Around the resort the only really kids friendly activity that I can think of is the elefant safari. The company that organised this picked us up (with an open lorry
) but we survived and our son had great fun riding and feeding the elefants. There is also a company that organises boat trips to 7 .... (forgot what it was but can check it) + a great restaurant. Might also be fun, but not for the youngest kids. You can contact the resort to find out if they offer other activities and excusions suitable for your group, at the time we were there, the consierge was not really "up and running", but I hope they will be by now.
Be aware: Coral in water and some steep areas without fence (reception). You might be running after kids a lot.
I am starting to think that this is not the best resort for such a large group and so many kids at such a young age. It is really something different compared to two adults and a four year old which we travelled with...
