Hi Amanda

Yes, very sad about Bali Hai, been lots of talk about it for the past week on other sites. People just back say still fully staffed, but very sad.

Santika would be my recommendation. Kumala Pantai is not what you would call "child friendly". You would not be able to have the kids in the room with you either (max 1 to a room unless you take suite).

It is a popular Hotel with the quiet middle age crowd. I have even heard guests tell children to "quieten down".

The sea is pretty treacherous in front of there also, if the kids like to paddle. We always stay there, so if you want more info, happy to help.

Of course, the main "kids" Hotel is Dynasty. As my kids are older now, I am only going on heresay.

Hope this helps, whatever you decide, have a great holiday.
