What we loved:
The suite

What we didn't love:
Many hidden extras.

BEWARE. Many hidden extras. I wish I knew of all the extras I was slapped with before we checked in. They have a Quest Game at the resort at all resort locations called Magi Quest. Yes, it is a great game for kids to play. You purchase a Magi Wand and get a Quest guide. They have tons of interactive pictures, sculptures,monitors and rooms. What upset me is that the game is on three levels of the Resort. You must pass through the interactive game to reach any room in the resort noway to avoid it. I love to go away with my family and when we travel we dont have problem spending a little more for added fun. Since I didnt know about the game and we couldnt avoid it. We played. 1 wand is $15., wand topper like a character or pretty thing $15. then just to activate the wand another $11. that is over $40 for one wand and game. I had 3 kids with me yes they could have shared but they didnt want to I dont blame them therefore 40x3=$120. for a game. Plus they have many,many more extras, Build-A-Bear$$,Decorate a pillow or T-shirt $$, arcade $, a whole room for crafts$$ and a spa for kids$$$$$$.
