TL;DR
For a family trip, pick a hotel with its own water park, a large territory, several pools and evening kids' entertainment; when booking, request a room block close to the water park and kids club, near a restaurant.
When booking with kids, ask about the specific room block location: choose one close to the water park and kids club, and check that a restaurant is nearby — otherwise walking far for breakfast/dinner with young children is inconvenient.
Travelers note that a good family hotel has a large territory and multiple pools, giving kids room to play instead of one crowded pool.
Food at such hotels is described as tasty and varied; some guests still prefer to go out in the evening, for example to the old town for shrimp or to restaurants serving stuffed dishes.
Hotels with good animation run evening programs for kids, hold beach discos on Saturdays, and occasionally throw foam parties in the pool (happened a couple of times during a 10-day stay).
If the main hotel lacks a good water park, some travelers consider a day trip to a hotel near the Barron area that has a water park suitable for school-age kids — but in mid-July the slides get very hot and sunburn is easy.
