the radisson is a magnificent resort!
that being said
it is hard to compare the surf club and the radisson

radisson is a full service hotel/resort
marriott surf is a timeshare

radisson has the nicest beach and more space to spread out on the beach..head over heels over marriott.

but marriott surf will give you more space in the unit and is very very nice. marriott surf will probably have more kids and more activities for your young 'uns.

if you make the decision based on your kids' needs, i think the surf wins.

have u thought about the tamarijn or renting a timeshare at costa linda or lacabana or cdm or abc? those places have ground floor units, easy walk to the beach.

I'm deciding between Radisson and Marriott Surf Club. Question: we like to be on the ground level so we can go in/out of our room rather easily (especially for using our own restroom). We also want to be as close as possible to the beach. Would this be possible at either place? The Radisson pool looks gorgeous, but so does the Marriott, and it looks like maybe it offers more for the toddler/preschool age group.

THANKS ALL FOR YOUR INPUT!
