Kidtopia Kids Club

"We stayed as guests of a member at Omni La Costa for 4 nights. The resort is truly exceptional. However, after our stay, our impression of their kids' camp/care could not be much lower. Kidtopia advertises on its website description to have educational and entertaining programming for the children throughout the day including outings and activities. We stayed at Omni La Costa and enrolled our two children (5 and 7) for two full days. We were sorely disappointed with the Kidtopia program. The only activities offered during their 8 hour stay were a few board games and movie time in addition to a "short walk." There were no educational or other programs offered. In essence, they were housed in a relatively small room with limited opportunities for activity and entertainment. The books available were for only for very small children to be read to. There were no books for young readers looking for interesting topics. This program is likely more than adequate for members and guests who wish to leave their small children for an hour two. But this is not an enriching camp-type setting; it is more like a run-down day care. We had high hopes, especially at $142.00 PER CHILD PER DAY (Total $284.00 per day!!!). For that price, we expected attention to detail, activities, and skilled staff. It had none of those things. It was just a day care catering more to 3-5 year old children without any dynamic or interesting resources for the children. I strongly advise against using Kidtopia if for anything longer than a couple of hours."
