Can't share enough good from this place. We took our 10 year old and 2 year old there, and they both were entertained. I went diving, and the coral was perfect for a beginner, like me. More

Let me start by saying we are pretty sure we would return. This place is really unique and very fun for families. Having said that there is an awful lot of "average" going on there. Good - Rooms are big and clean. We had a 2 bedroom. Our Nanny RuthAnn was excellent. Our son really liked her and she kept... More

We just returned from our second trip to FDR, and it certainly won't be the last. We were traveling with our 3.5 year old son, 7 month old son, and a set of grandparents. Our 3.5 got the same nanny, Tamara Brown, he had a few years ago, and she was just as great this time as before. She is... More

I just read the most recent review and she was right on the spot. We arrived Saturday afternoon and my brother in law asked us (we have been to many mega resorts) what we thought of the resort. We had gone to the buffet late and most of the food was gone and the resort was small. We were very... More

Stayed at the FDR the last week of February 2012. Our children are 3 1/2 and 2 yrs old. We loved it! I thought the majority of tripadvisor reviews are spot on. The property is older, and the rooms could use some updating. But you are there for the nannies, and the wonderful staff. The property is small, but that... More

Our family just returned from FDR..myself, wife and kids 4 and 1 (turned one on the trip). We had read the reviews but were still not sure what to expect. The very first day, we met our Nanny Keisha...and instantly we felt at ease. She was extremely attentive, loving and comforting...and my wife and I very quickly were able to... More

We just returned from our trip at FDR and all I can say is that is was AMAZING! We had four adults (mom, dad, and grandparents) and 3 children (ages 4, 2, and 1). Everyone was entertained all day every day. We opted for two nannies and we were so lucky to have Janice and Lorraine. They were so wonderful... More

I thoroughly enjoyed our 5-night stay at FDR. We travelled with our three kids, ages 3, 9 and 10 during the first week of March. Because of the layout and size, my two older kids could navigate the resort on their own. They'd check the activity board and know what was going on, then wander around and enjoy the pool,... More

This was our second trip to FDR which says a lot. However, I'm not completely sure we will go again ... Pros: Fantastic nanny's. Our son Gabriel loves Kadian. She is just amazing. It is almost like she reads your mind. The main thing is that she, and many of the nanny's just really enjoy kids and they take their... More
