KIDS SAFETY POLICY

The resort goes to great lengths to put security measures in place to ensure the safety of all guests. However, we request that you keep a constant check on your children whenever they are not participating in an organized activity, especially around the swimming pools, parking area and on the beach.

PATHWAYS: As children can become disoriented in new surroundings, we suggest that you teach them your room number and, in the event that they are lost, they should contact any member of staff wearing a name badge.

BEACH & POOL: We recommend that children wear suitable footwear at all times when outside to avoid accidents involving sharp sea shells, stones, etc. Sandals and beach shoes can be purchased at the hotel shop.

MEDICAL: A general doctor and pediatrician are on call 24-hours.
