Lazy River and Zero Entry Pool
Not that I've inner tubed down the Amazon, but I googled it once and the Omni's 850-foot lazy river looks incredibly authentic. Planted in the Omni's complimentary inner tubes for hours, my boys and husband had a blast mercilessly dunking each other on the lazy river alone. But there's more. The zero-entry family pool (5 feet, 9 inches at it's deepest) has a corkscrew water slide and an interactive, shallow pool has it's own towering fountain. Best of all, the Omni isn't stingy with the pool hours. Kids can stay immersed until 10 p.m. every night.
Camp Omni Kids Escape
Offering kid-friendly dinners, movies, video games, board games and other activities, the Camp Omni Kids Escape program gives parents time to escape. The program is open nightly from 5 to 10 p.m. and welcomes children ages 4 to 12 years. The price includes dinner. Reservations required.
Resort Arcade
All of the family favorites are here including air hockey, driving games and and Mrs. Pac-Man. It's located near the pool and immediately next to Camp Omni, and open an amazing 24-hours a day.
Champions 9 Golf
Are you or the kids beginners at golf? The Omni has an ideal course for the whole family on the nine-hole, par-three Champions 9 course. It's even beautifully illuminated for evening play. Junior rates are also available on the two 18-hole courses. Check in at the pool towel hut up until 8:30 p.m.
Sports Fun
Tennis, basketball and volleyball lovers will find their courts at the Omni. The resort has two lighted tennis courts, a lit basketball court and a sand volleyball pit. Equipment can be checked out at no charge from the pool towel hut from 8 a.m. until 11 p.m.
The Spa
As a mom of boys, I'd love to treat a daughter to a spa manicure -- especially one called the Princess in Paradise -- a sweet treat for princesses twelve and under. Facials, stress relief massages and mani/pedis are all on the teen menu for the 13 to 17 year olds. Arrive with your teen thirty-minutes before your treatment so they can enjoy the steam room and whirlpool.
