Ian’s Comments |
|
|
I have been to
Hamilton so many
times, and watched
it evolve into what
it is today. What I
find great is that
there is the choice
of accommodation
styles. If you are
traveling with a
small group of
friends you can all
choose different
styles to suit your
budget) but enjoy
the resort together.
So much for everyone
to do here – the
kids love it! |
