The resort is extremely family friendly. We had 5 kids under 7 with us and there was always something for them to do. The theater performances were a very big hit. For adults there are events as well. The food is very good and varied day to day. The staff is friendly and helpful in booking tours and arranging transportation. We all very much enjoyed the tropical atmosphere and the intimate nature of the accommodations even if it is a large resort.

Our stay in Armaçao was beautiful. We enjoyed it very much. I went with my two kids aged 9 and 14 and we all had a wonderful time. The good: -excellent musical entertainment at night. Every day a different band and they were all amazing -the staff is incredibly friendly and will go out of their way to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. I cannot emphasize enough how wonderful the people are, everyone from the front desk to the staff at the restaurants, bar, and room service. -the hotel is very well located, we took an uber to the center of town almost every day which cost about $2 USD one way. Very easy. It is also situated right in the middle of all the beaches so you can visit the beaches to the north which are 10 minutes away by uber or the ones further south another 10 minutes away. Very comfortable. The beach the hotel is situated at is a bit more rough with larger waves, but warm water and we went in the ocean several times right in front of the hotel. -you can walk to town from the hotel on the beach, it's about 2km away. -this is not a luxury resort, but everything is clean and the amenities are all you need. The beds are super comfortable and the room is spacious. -there are no places to refill water bottles so you have to buy bottled water from town or from the mini fridge in the room. It is not expensive, but also not very eco friendly. -the food, drinks and massages etc in the hotel are affordable so you pamper yourself away -there is a small store inside the hotel that has everything you could possibly need from repellant to swimsuits and prices are consistent with what you find in the center of town, not overpriced like some hotels. -there are 2 travel agencies that have a small office inside the hotel and you can hire tours from them without leaving the hotel. The prices are not too different from the agencies that offer the same day trips in the center of town, so it's worth it to hire them at the hotel if you want comfort and ease The not so good: Some things that I think could be improved... -The pool by the beach does not have umbrellas by the pool lounge chairs. I wish they had because the sun is very strong and if you want to lounge by the pool while drinking a caipirinha and watching your kids swim, you have to be under the sun. You do not have the option of being in the shade. In order to be in the shade you have to move to the lounge chairs on the beach or by the bar, which are not directly in front of the pool. -Our room did not have a glass window so if we wanted sunlight, the only possibility was to open the door or open the wooden shades, but if we wanted to have privacy and sunlight it was not possible because we did not have a glass window. We also didn't have a window mosquito net, so when we opened the wooden shades to get air or sunlight into the room, all the mosquitoes came in and for the first 4 nights we had a hard time because got bit, a lot. From then on, the hotel staff kindly offered us an electric repellent that worked very well. -In the bathroom there was a towel hanger missing, it was evident that it had broken and they had not replaced it or put in a new one. This truly is a minor detail. In general, the room was super clean, very comfortable, and had everything we needed. -Drinks at dinner are not included, also they have a variety of desserts and pastries but no fruit. I would have liked to have more fruit options aside from pastries. Aside from that, everything was beautiful, the place and the staff were impeccable, the food was delicious, the pool was very comfortable and clean, and everything was excellent. I think for the value you get a great experience at a resort that is not posh but has everything you need. I would recommend it and I would also go back.
