Pool bar closed too early and not enough variety in food options. Having some music in the background would also add to the daily holiday vibe. Lobby bar closed too early so no opportunity to spend time with with other visitors after dinner. No water provided in the rooms , only paid bottles which were disappointing. Otherwise, we loved our room and the pool area!
