Thanks to all for your input. It sounds like my kids would have fun as they are pretty easygoing, like to make their own fun and love to try new foods and places. I have no doubt they would be fine but we've decided it's time to take an adults only trip on this one and think A/C will be a great adventure. We won't be slumming on the beach the whole time but want to experience all the other interesting things to do too. I'm looking forward to the trip and don't feel guilty about leaving the kids as we'll take them for a week to another island anyway. To anyone else who stayed at Banyan Bay - would love to hear your comments.
