Thanks! will look into these.

Is April going to be warm enough for spending time at the pool and beach?

Depends on you are ok with chilly water or not. Usually water temp is around 15c degree or more. I need to wear Dry suit for diving since I can%26#39;t stay under water for more than 30 minutes with 5mm wetsuit. So it is ok if you just dip into the water for a couple of minutes. And many beachs open in April.

Hi again Kate!

We%26#39;ve stayed at the Manza Beach Resort and visited the Busena Terrace. Manza seemed to be more ';happening';, full of life and overall fun. Its grounds are quite vast, so you can explore without leaving the property. Busena seemed quieter, secluded and ';honeymoonish';---but the decor was nicer. However, seeing that the Manza is undergoing a major renovation to be completed this month, it should be looking great just in time for you!

Activities: Manza offers a wider variety---some are very cool but have an age requirement (12+). Busena has the on-site underwater observatory (admission fee).
