We stayed at the aliathon for 10 nights, all inclusive beginning of October 2011.
Myself, husband and two girls aged 6 and 18 months.
I am writing this on behalf of all 4 of us - we had an amazing holiday and didnt want to leave.
Our apartment was on the fishing village side, ground floor and was exactly how we had hoped it would be from pictures we had seen 'junior suite' a lovely studio apartment with a seperate kids room - perfect, with a lovely large private terrace, just had everything we needed.
All inclusive - we were more than happy with the selection of food and drinks available. I was extremely impressed with the salads on offer - i cant eat a meal without salad, which i am very picky about and i was in my element all holiday. My husband is a meat and chips kind of guy - he was happy and the girls pretty much nibbled on anything, pasta, vegetables, fruit, jelly & ice-cream.
I think they pretty much cater for everyone at all meal times.
Our eldest daughter loved being able to have drinks and ice-cream whenever she wanted and going to the bar to get it herself.
Such an amazing relaxing holiday, so much help with our girls and so many other great families we got friendly with.......our eldest joined in the fun with the fantastic entertainment team, they all took her under their wing and looked after her, we hardly saw her and we felt so relaxed and happy that she was off having a great time (even though it was without us, which we are not used too, she's usually superglued to our sides) so we hold our hats up to the entertainment staff for prizing our shy little girl away from us.
The creche was a huge help with our youngest the charge of 30 euro for 3 x 2 hour sessions (5 euro per hour) was well worth it. We put her in the creche everyday for 2 hours either 10am-12noon or 11am-1pm, which gave us time to chill by the pool in the hot sunshine and do the daily quiz - great fun, a good way of having a bit of cheesy adult fun and gets your brain going!!!
Pools are mega. The main pool by the lighthouse is perfect for children just like a mini beach, we spent most of our time by the main pool. The Splash pool is freezing, takes your breath away, very refreshing and great fun!!!
The only reason why i've not rated this holiday as excellent is because we have been to all inclusives in the carribean (pre-children) which do top this place.
However, we highly recommend this place especially to families with young children.
Almost perfect & excellent value for money.
