We had a very relaxing family vacation (with two children ages 5 and 2) - staying a full week at the Andaz. It was a quiet week with lower occupancy during our stay, this meant restaurants were not all open or only open on select nights, but that was outweighed by the ease of access to all other amenities (chairs, reservations, shuttles, kid club, etc.). We stayed in a room with walk out beach access, which was fantastic for "nap time" as the adults were able to enjoy peaceful beach views from the patio / private beach while the kids napped right behind us. The location also meant that we had a few noisy nights due to evening events that took place on the beach for weddings and parties - (all wrapped by 11, but pretty noisy for small kids that go to bed on the early side). That said, the proximity to beach and pool outweighed the three noisy nights. I especially want to thank Alex Flores (our favorite shuttle driver) who connected with my son and made us feel so welcome, Alejandra (the lead breakfast chef at Cocina Milagro) who made special pancakes for our daughter several mornings to accommodate allergy needs, Izamar Soto (our "butler" who made sure we had everything we needed all week), and Omar (our poolside waiter who anticipated our schedules and made sure smoothies and lunches were served just as soon as restaurants opened; since we had small hungry kids). The restaurant staff were all diligent about food allergies (which both our children have) which I was so thankful for. Overall, we had a great week - it was time to slow down and spend quality time together in a beautiful setting.
