We are a family of 4 with a 1 year old and a 3 year old. What sold MW to us was the childcare options for under 4 year olds (which is virtually non existent in most places). To put into perspective, we went to an Ikos last year and still thought that could have required improvements so we were weren't expecting MW to be perfect...but actually we had an amazing time and for us, we probably enjoyed it a bit more than Ikos. THE GREAT - Childcare is phenomenal. We put our 3 year old in childcare free for the week and a small surcharge (£200) for our 1 year old. You basically take your kids down and drop them off for 3.5 hours and it's essentially like nursery. You then get a further 3 hours in the evening where all the kids go off to watch a movie in their own little beds and pick them up at 10 and the kids are all asleep so an easy transfer. Aly and Tish were so lovely and it was really this service that made our holiday. Our son absolutely loved it and was buzzing at pick-up. - The other guests were so lovely and found everyone to be very friendly and likeminded. You stay with the same set of guests for the week and end up having a lovely time together with your children making friends. - A kids early dinner is put on at the jetty bat at 5:30 which is fab and all the kids and parents congregated here ahead of evening childcare. THE GOOD - Having lots of activities on offer was good for us as a couple when pre-kids we were used to doing a lot more activities, we are not normally ones to sit around but it was nice to have the choice. I do think this could be improved however to be more inclusive to families with small children. There are very few activities we could do with our kids after they come out of kids club. My suggestion would be for MW to invest in pedalo's, we did this at Ikos and the kids loved it. - The food was nice. Considering there is only 1 buffet resaurant, this could have gotten really repetitive but the food is often switched out and the meats are really delicious and there is enough variety to not get too bored. It would have been better to have options of elsewhere to eat that was included in the package (jetty bar you have to pay for and beach restaurant you can only book for 1 night and it's the same as the buffet) - The space at the resort was good. So many places to lounge and the day beds were so comfortable and readily available. It was easy to relax and grab a spot, however, we did go for 1st week of opening so wasn't that busy REQUIRES IMPROVEMENT Here is what lets MW down.. - The pool and beach was freezing. None of the kids pools were heated and even in the shallowest pool my baby cried and climbed out. None of the babies at the resort went in the water during our week which is such a big part to enjoying a beach holiday. MW really needs to heat the kids pools at the very least. Also to flag, the sand is very rocky so if your kids like making sandcastle this is probably not the one. - The floor around t
