I guess the question is whether the price difference is worth it, as both are in virtually the same location.

I would be fine with Golden Sands, personally.

More relaxed, less stuffy, and still very decent indeed on food & service.

Bearin mind you can still access the large kids' playground (Adventure Zone) no matter which you choose, though I think the 4-year-old might not be comfortable on some of the slides.
