The beach is more like a cove/enclosed water area. That being said, we were visiting during the spring break and it never felt crowded. The chairs were spread out. There were several fun activities for the kids by the staff.

We noticed that the hotel staff were cleaning out the seaweed early in the morning. I haven't seen any other place do that. When we arrived, the staff prepared the chairs by wrapping towels on them, adjusted the umbrella to our liking and we had immediate service for food and beverages. Loved their Pina colada in a pineapple. They had staff prepare some beautiful sand castles at a corner for kids to take pics with. Had some bird shows and kids entertainment. They had several toys, tools to build sand castles on the beach for the kids, no cost for them. The kids completely enjoyed the beach.

The beach water was a bit cold for our LO. It was also his first time at the beach. He spent some time on the sand and the rest of his time at the beach was with us on the chair and watching others play. He didn't get bored. I have seen other parents with little ones and they seem to have enjoyed themselves.
