I went to this hotel with two children (3 and 11 years old) and my mother.
For me, the presence of sand and proximity to the airport was important, so I considered only Lara.
The hotel is of a fairly high level - many excellent pools for every taste, a wonderful paddling pool for kids, 4 slides with a separate pool. The food is good, sometimes there were not enough places, but, in principle, normal. There is a children's menu and a separate children's restaurant. Ice cream after lunch.
Unfortunately, I won’t say anything good about the room, because they gave us a side room with a view of the Dolphin and it was sooooo small - 4 beds were back to back, there was no more space. But the bathroom is large, bath - everything is clean, decent.
About the sea - sunbeds with awnings are very far away - the neighbors are much closer. Tourists drag sunbeds closer to the water, but then without a canopy you can just cook. The beach has a great playground for the kids.

Animation. I'm not a big fan of daytime animation, so no comment, but I really liked the evening animation - every evening after the children's disco (by the way, my children really liked it) a new show, and at a very good level - sometimes professional acrobats, sometimes dancers - cool.
Now about the negatives:
- waiters - hacks! if you don't "feed" you won't get anything, you'll even have to take the appliances yourself. I never feed anyone, so I had to go back and forth for drinks a few times, but it's bearable.
- the elevators are small, only 2 (there are 2 more in the other wing) and you have to wait a long time, and then when you wait - there is a mother with a stroller - you won’t be able to enter, so it’s better on foot.
- up to 14 hours do not populate even for extra. fee. (But generally it is normal and so it should be). so choose a departure more comfortable (just in case). however, I chose the normal one (to arrive at 13), but we were rescheduled and we arrived at the hotel at 12.
In general, I would go there again if other neighboring hotels are much more expensive. And if it's a little more expensive, then we'll try something else.
