Thinking hard about perhaps making a trip out here over the winter holidays - likely the week between Christmas and New Year's.

Would love to get advice from anyone here who has been around that time ... Not sure whether this is likely to be a time when the property is bursting at the scenes, overrun by children, etc (seems to be lots of availability at the moment) ... or maybe it will be quiet, with winter in the desert not being everyone's cup of tea. Assuming the weather will be too cool to use the swimming pools, but what about other outdoor activities? We're thinking about a 5 or 6 night trip and are just a bit worried about having enough to keep us a but occupied - bearing in mind that the main purpose of our trip will be to relax and recharge.

Many thanks for whatever advice you all might offer.
